[Intro]
Gmaj7
Are you there?
A
Did patience wane?
D/F# Gmaj7
Did you fall asleep to your four-track recording of rain?
Do you feel tame?
A (pause)
Do you feel insane?
Is there anyone in the audience currently living in vain?
[Chorus]
D/F# G Dsus2

[Verse 1]
Gmaj7 A D/F#
Hard times, old ways, takes up a lot of time
Gmaj7
Hard times, uses up whole days
A
All those actresses leasing compact cars
D/F#
Boiling water at four in the morning
Gmaj7
In the outfield of Elysian Park
A#*
Gone too soon to the void saloon
A
All night, lighting wet cigarettes
Gmaj7
In a dog breath room
[Chorus]
D/F# G Dsus2

[Verse 2]
Gmaj7 A
Rough lovers in deserted hallways
D/F#
Crazed with unbuttoning
Gmaj7
Everything must go, button-wise
A
Fumbling with keys to the door on the 94th floor
D/F#
Knees buckling in the threshold
Gmaj7 A
The world, open wide, open wide, and we just shiver
A#*
On the counter, 'cause we're both already there
Bm
Why don't you go put a record on?
A
Why don't you sing me a little song?
[Outro] Plays just like the chorus until the fade out.
