Intro - F Bb e -------------------| B--1-1-1-1-----------| G ----------3-3-3-3--| D-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3----| A -------------------| E -------------------| F Sometimes I wonder where I'd be If all my friends abandoned me On a vessel out to sea, Bb Took every lifeboat and they ran F It's funny how we'd switch our roles With empty cabins, empty hulls And all the food filled up with mold, Bb I'd stand on deck without a hand F Feeling so much bigger than I am Bb And so I dim the lights, and I crack a beer I think to myself about things F I'd said I'd do this year Bb Growing old never takes it's toll until you're losing F Track of all things you won't ever have back again (Same chords as first verse) Five minutes pass and I get scared I take the ladder, than the stairs Trying hard to get some air Inside these lungs that I neglect I grip the wheel and try to turn I never looked, I never learned Just playing captain to my kind, To think it never crossed my mind Bb F Please forgive me, I want to go home C Bb F Wake me up now, I'm so tired of being lonely Bb F Strips of moonlight in the clouds are breaking through C Bb F I'll be dreaming, baby I'll be dreaming of you [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/r/river-city-extension/281842.html ] (Same chords as verse 1) After a night without a mate I hung my head and loved my fate Counted the hairs upon my face, I never thought I'd have the time But when the day came to an end I missed my family and my friends All driven out by my control If everyone knew what they told I wouldn’t be so bold, I wouldn’t act so old Hey, honey, I wouldn’t stay so cold (Same chords as Chorus) And so I dim the lights, and I crack a beer I think to myself about things I'd said I'd do this year Growing old never takes it's toll until you're losing Track of all things you won't ever have back again And there’s so many of them Interlude - Dm Bb F C Dm Bb Then one morning I awoke F C Inside a clearing in the smoke Dm Bb C My fist like quarters, scratching wax off of my eyes Dm Bb I hit the door then I hit the roof F C I bit my tongue, I broke a tooth Dm Bm C I saw a landing to the left of the sunrise Bb F And I cried: please forgive me, I want to go home C Bb F Wake me up now, I’m so tired of being lonely Bb F Strips of moonlight in the clouds are breaking through C Bb I’ll be dreaming, baby I’ll dreaming C Bb I’ll be dreaming, baby I’ll dreaming C Bb F I’ll be dreaming, baby I’ll be dreaming of you Outro = intro |
