[D] [G]
[F] [C]
[G] saw you at [C] the [Em] police station and it breaks my heart to say
[G] Your eyes had [C] wandered off, knew [Em] something's missed in cold and gray
[Am] I guess you didn't see it coming Someone's gotten used to [G] slumming
My dreaming of the golden years I see you had to change Korea [Am] far away
But we both know it's [G] somewhere
I saw you [C] on the back page of [Em] some repress yesterday
[G] The driftwood [C] in your eyes said [Em] nothing short of love for pain
[Am] I knew you from another picture Of someone with the most conviction
[G] We used to read the phone and tape us I pulled around and pulled some tape [Am] but not today
Send a message to [D] her A message that I'm coming
I'm coming to pursue [F] her Damn old [C] country I left my best [D] on your
[A] bed
I've [F] got just in time, love, [C] for I'll chase you down [D] to your
[A] death
[G] Saw you [C] on the TV [Em] station and it made me all afraid
[G] An empty [C] shell of love in [Em] it, but now dusted with decay
[Am] What happened to the funny paper?
Smiling was your [G] moneymaker
Someone ought to situate her Find a way to educate [Am] her all the way
Time to come and [D] find you But you can't hide from me, girl
So never mind what [F] I do Damn old [C] country I left my best [D] on your bed

[A] head
