[C#m] [F#m]
[C#m] [F#m]
[C#m] Time [C#] ain't gonna wait [C#m] for even you [F#m] my friend [C#m] I can't stay vain, I'm looking at the [F#m] end
[C#m] Ace high, [F#m] [C#m]
hypnotized, [C#] sucked into [A] that sea [C#m] Taking on the guys, it wasn't really me
[F#m]
[C#m] [F#m]
[C#] Hard years [G] later, [C#] and we're still hanging [F#m] on [C#m] For this [F#m] Saint [C#] Jack [G#] boxcar [C#m] that's never gonna [F#m] come
[C#m] Not running away now, been running all day But it's falling apart now, it's been coming all day
Oh I have been your laughing [E] boy I [B] took it on the chin, [A] accepted gracefully
[C#] [C#m] And all the heats that you [E] did blow You let them all [B] I take, you let them all [F#m] I break
[C#m]
[F#]
[C#m]
Cooking fires [F#] on the beach, [C#] smoke finger in [F#] the sky [C#m]
You know that's where I should be, my baby by my side
[G#m] Good [F#m] times, [C#m] strong starts, remember that, [A] but now [C#m] The palace gang's back to old things And that's my cue, I'm [A] getting out in [C#m] style
Oh I have been your [E] laughing boy I took it [B] on the chin, [A] accepted gracefully
[C#m] And all the heats that you [E] did blow You let them all [B] I take, you let them all I [F#m] break
[C#m]
[E] And all the heats that [B] you did blow You
[G#m] [A]
[C#m]
[E] let them all I take, you let them all [B] I
[F#] [C#m] [A]
[C#m] break
Not [A] running away [C#m] now, [A] been running all [C#m] day But [A] it's [G] falling apart [C#m] now, it's been coming all day
Oh I have been your laughing [E] boy I took [B] it on the chin, accepted [A] gracefully
[E] [C#m] And all the heats that you [E] did blow You let them all [B] I take, you let them all [F#m] I break
[C#m] Oh I have been your laughing [E] boy I took it [B] on the chin, accepted [A] gracefully
And [C#m] all the heats that you did [E] blow You let them all [B] I take, you let them all I [F#m] [C#m]
