1st 2nd 1st 2nd (pause)



        1st         2nd
And the funny thing is it has no end
1st                      2nd
I try to call you up, at 2am
1st                    2nd
In a crowded bar, your ringer tones
1st             2nd                     D
Grab my mind, I can see you through the phone,

The phone, the phone
                      A
And I'm wide awake at home

At home, at home
                        D
So think I'll see my coquette

And hope you don't catch
                  A
The bourbon on my breath

My breath, my breath

        1st            2nd
Catch a cab outside on Seventh Street
1st                      2nd
And the cars fly through the Bowery
1st                     2nd
I come to your door and I hear a moan
1st                (pause)               D
Then another voice, so Christ, she's not alone

Alone, alone
                          A
And my heart sinks like a stone

A stone, a stone
                         D
And the tears won't even come

I feel so numb
                   A
So swept aside, so dumb

So dumb, so dumb



E
When the words are wrong

And my patience gone

Will you tell me
                     (pause)
Does this mean you're moving on?

         1st          2nd
From the balcony, you call my name
1st                2nd
I see you standing in the rain
1st                2nd
Your words so dry, your face so wet
1st
Said I broke your heart,
(pause)                D
But it hasn't happened yet

I'll bet, your friends all hate me now
  A
I get the strangest looks,

From that bitchy crowd
    D
And though, they must think
                
They have every reason to
  A
I guess I'm still not quite yet over you
