My room is a museum
A# D#
a lifetime's of my work
A# D#
I am the last Mohican
A# D#
I stand proud although I'm hurt
A# D#
I keep a cup of secrets
A# D#
from which I never drink
A# D#
I am an ancient king
A#
who sits proud but never thinks
Ab D#
And if I find one more ring
A# Cm
of yours mixed up among my things
Cm D#
I just might sell all my belongings
A#
to make sure I've cut all my strings
Ab D#
and if I find one more note
A# Cm
crumpled up inside my coat
Cm D#
I'm moving back to Carolina
A#
where I'll live out on the coast
D#
live out of the coast
A# D#
I have a box of trinkets
A# D#
I count them one by one
A# D#
each one is a keepsake
A#
from a war that I have won
A# D#
I have a daily schedule
A# D#
a comfortable routine
A# D#
watch months roll by with pleasure
A#
like girls walking down the street
Ab D#
And if I find one more ring
A# Cm
of yours mixed up among my things
Cm D#
I just might sell all my belongings
A#
to make sure I've cut all my strings
Ab D#
and if I find one more note
A# Cm
crumpled up inside my coat
Cm D#
I'm moving back to Carolina
A#
where I'll live out on the coast
D#
live out of the coast
Cm D#
I lost all my ambition
Cm D#
could've settled for less
Ab D#
but if I can't have you
A# D# A#
I don't care about the rest
Ab D#
And if I find one more ring
A# Cm
of yours mixed up among my things
Cm D#
I just might sell all my belongings
A#
to make sure I've cut all my strings
Ab D#
and if I find one more note
A# Cm
crumpled up inside my coat
Cm D#
I'm moving back to Carolina
A#
where I'll live out on the coast
Ab D#
and if I find one more strand
A# Cm
of black hair under my night stand
