_ _ [B] _ _ _ [F#] _ _ _
_ [D#] _ _ [B] _ _ [F#] _ _ _
_ [G#] _ _ [B] _ _ [F#] _ [G#m] Here I walk _ [B] in an [F#] empty shell
[G#m] Even though it's [E] _ [B] hard to tell
This [G#m] lonesome hand is _ [B] taking [F#] its toll
But I just don't [B] know how far it [E] can go
_ _ [F#]
Well, come [G#m] down and watch it first [B] step
Don't do [F#] anything you might regret
You're [G#m] much too innocent [B] to suffer
[F#] _ _
It [G#m] wasn't all sunny [B] days
Thickened [F#] through your memories
The rain came [G#m] down and you covered [B] me in velvet
[F#] _ [E] Oh, you covered [B] me [F#] in velvet _ _ _
_ _ [G#m] Well, there you are
_ [B] Like a song [F#] I heard in [G#m] a smoky bar
_ [E] Where the [B] whiskey served just like [G#m] my heart
_ _ [B]
It's dancing [F#] along
But it seemed [B] like it just won't [E] ever end
_ [F#] Come [G#m] down and watch it [B] first step
Don't do [F#] anything you might regret
You're [G#m] much too innocent [B] to [F#] suffer
_ It [G#m] wasn't all sunny [B] days
Thickened [F#] through your memories
The rain came [G#m] down and you covered [B] me in velvet
[F#] _ [E] Oh, you covered [B] me [F#] in velvet
[G#] _ _ _ _ [F#] _ _ _
_ [G#] _ _ _ _ [F#] _ [G#m] Another turn, _ [B] another [F#] cautious step
Will we [G#m] ever learn just [E] how lonesome [B] can get
You [G#m] called me a _ [B] runnin', runnin' [F#] away
Now you just don't [B] know how long I [E] can stay
_ _ [F#]
Come [G#m] down and watch it first [B] step
Don't do [F#] anything you might regret
You're [G#] much too innocent [B] to suffer
[F#] _ _
It [G#m] wasn't all sunny [B] days
Thickened through [F#] your memories
The rain came [G#m] down and you covered [B] me in velvet
[F#] _ [E] Oh, you covered [B] me [F#] in velvet
_ Oh, [E] you covered [B] me [F#] in velvet
[G#] _ _ _
_ [F#] _ _ In [G#] _ _ [B] _
