Intro
A Bm (F#m G) (F#m Am) (F#m G)
[Verse 1]
A Bm F#m A
I----- am the dotted line
D Bm F#m A
And you fill me in with whatever you like
D Bm F#m A
I’m---- just going through the motions
A Bm F#m A
I---- need an old fashioned potion
G
There's gotta be some old recipe
A
Cause I gotta get drunk
A A7
I gotta forget about some things
[Verse 2]
D Bm F#m A
I---- lived in lies all my life
Bm F#m A
And I've been living here for a long, long time
A Bm F#m A
And I know it's been coming down a while now
Bm F#m A
When it shows, then you get me on the dial
G
But right now you're half way around the world
A A7
Maybe I'll see better days, but I'm not so sure I will
[Verse 3]
D Bm F#m A
I'm still hanging round and round
Bm F#m A
Sometimes it's a racket, but lately not a sound
Bm F#m A
In the bowels of history and time
Bm F#m A
I have learned to stay back and never shine
G
Now I feel stupid when I smile
A A7
For not a journey, a circus are our lives
[Interlude]
(D Am) F#m A F#m A (F#m Am)
[Verse 4]
A Bm F#m A
I can't make up for everything I waste
Bm F#m A
And I know that I could never afford a taste
D Bm F#m A
Of anything that your lovely hands make
Bm F#m A
It eats away with a force so great
G
Just because it brings a smile to my face
A A7
Such a bad memory, you just can't erase
[Verse 5]
D Bm F#m A
I know of a city to steal from
Bm F#m A
And I know of a city to cheat on
D Bm F#m A
And I know of a city of sin
Bm F#m A
And that's the place I wanna meet you in
G
And say hello all over again
A
Romance me, take it back to the beginning
[Outro]
