G C Em Em
Smeared black ink
G C Em
Your face is ashen and I'm barely listening
G C Em
To last demands

I'm staring at the asphalt wondering
Em Em
What's buried underneath
[Chorus]
G C D D
Where I am
G C D D
Where I am

G C Em Em
I'll wear my badge
G C Em
E vinyl sticker with big block letters adherent to my chest
G C Em
That tells your new friends
G C
I am a visitor here
Em
I am not permanent
G C Em
And the only thing
G C Em
Keeping me dry is
[Chorus]
G C D D
Where I am (In this gaudy apartment complex)
[You seem so out of context]
G C D D
Where I am (Explaining that I am just visiting)
[E stranger with your door key]
G C D D
Where I am (why I was the one worth leaving)
[And I am finally seeing]
C G
(Why I was the one worth leaving)
Em D C
D.C. sleeps alone tonight
Em D C A
D.C. sleeps alone tonight

The district sleeps alone tonight after the bars turn out their lights

And leave the autos swerving into the loneliest evening

And I am finally seeing why I was the one worth leaving
D C G
Why I was the one worth leaving
D C G
Why I was the one worth leaving
D C G
Why I was the one worth leaving
