[Verse 1]

D        G
  Six AM, day after Christmas
D                         G
  I throw some clothes on in the dark
D                   G
  The smell of cold  car seat is freezing
D                      G    D
 the world is sleeping I am numb

D               G
  Up the stairs  to her apartment
D                   G
  she is balled up on the couch
D                 G
  Her mom and dad  went down to Charlotte
 D                        G
  they're not home to find us out


[Pre-chorus]

Bm7          G
And we drive
Bm7          G
Now that I have found someone
D                       G
I'm feeling more alone
        Bm7             Esus4 E Esus4
than I ever have before


[Chorus]

 G    A               Dmaj9
She's a brick and I'm drowning slowly
 G    A               Dmaj9
off the coast and I'm heading nowhere
 G    A               Dmaj9
She's a brick and I'm drowning slowly

G A G D


[Verse 2]

D
  They call her name
G
  at seven thirty
D                   G
  I pace around the parking lot
D
  Then I walk down
G
  to buy her flowers
D                          G
  and sell some gifts that I got


[Pre-chorus]

Bm7           G
Can't you see
Bm7         G
It's not me   you're dying for
          D                  G
Now she's feeling more alone
         Bm7       Esus4 E Esus4
than she ever has before


[Chorus]

 G    A               Dmaj9
She's a brick and I'm drowning slowly
 G    A               Dmaj9
off the coast and I'm heading nowhere
 G    A               Dmaj9
She's a brick and I'm drowning slowly

[Bridge]

Esus   E           Gsus  G            D   Dsus
   As weeks went by it showed that she was not fine
Esus   E           Gsus  G            D   Dsus
   They told me son it's time to tell the truth and
Esus   E          Gsus  G
   she broke down and I broke down
D    Dsus   Esus E Esus   G          D G D G
cause I was tired----          of lying


[Verse 3]

D              G
  Driving back  to her apartment
D                     G
  for the moment we're alone
D                  G
  Yeah she's alone  and I'm alone
D               G
  and now I know it


[Chorus]

 G    A               Dmaj9
She's a brick and I'm drowning slowly
 G    A               Dmaj9
off the coast and I'm heading nowhere
 G    A
She's a brick and I'm
   Bm7      A/C#
...drowning slowly

G A G A D/F# G D
