[C#]
The first night I should have left you [F#] before I shut [C#] my eyes
I prayed to God I'd wake up somewhere [G#] else
And [A#m] when the morning came [C#] to find me, [G#] you were sleeping there [C#] beside me
[F#] I wondered if this nightmare ever [G#] ends
The
[C#] door was left wide open [F#] and the neighbors [C#] were smoking
In the afternoon to pass away [G#] the time
[A#m] And you looked at me so cold and said [G#] this house is not [C#] my home
[F#] I wish you knew how true that felt [G#] most nights
[F#] Is it bitterness [G#] or sympathy [C#] that keeps [Fm] you standing here with me?
[F#] I'm not sure [A#m] how much more [G#] I can take
Cause I [F#] have sacrificed [G#] my peace of mind [C#] to sit here with you in the instant time
[F#] Now I think [G#] I'd like to [C#] walk away
I was standing in Ohio [F#] on the [C#] 28th of March
With a guitar and a suitcase in [G#] my hand
[A#m] And when the wind it stole my cap, [G#] Lord all I could [C#] do was laugh
[F#] And thank the stars I'm still a [G#] drinking man
[F#] Is it bitterness [G#] or sympathy that keeps you [A#m] standing here with me?
[F#] I'm not sure [A#m] how much more [G#] I can take
Cause [F#] I have sacrificed [G#] my peace of mind [C#] to sit here [A#m] with you in the instant time

[A#m] [C#] I was walking in a [F#] graveyard with no one that [C#] I know rests
Thinking [D#] maybe I could [G#] clear my head
[A#m] And on the cemetery [F#] breeze [G#] I heard a song [C#] about belief
[F#] A song with a thunder I can't [G#] understand
[F#] Is it bitterness [G#] or sympathy that keeps you [A#m] standing here with me?
[F#] I'm not [A#m] sure how much more [G#] I can take
