Intro
D Em (Bm G) (Bm Am) (Bm G)
[Verse 1]
D Em Bm D
I----- am the dotted line
G Em Bm D
And you fill me in with whatever you like
G Em Bm D
I’m---- just going through the motions
D Em Bm D
I---- need an old fashioned potion
C
There's gotta be some old recipe
D
Cause I gotta get drunk
D D7
I gotta forget about some things
[Verse 2]
G Em Bm D
I---- lived in lies all my life
Em Bm D
And I've been living here for a long, long time
D Em Bm D
And I know it's been coming down a while now
Em Bm D
When it shows, then you get me on the dial
C
But right now you're half way around the world
D D7
Maybe I'll see better days, but I'm not so sure I will
[Verse 3]
G Em Bm D
I'm still hanging round and round
Em Bm D
Sometimes it's a racket, but lately not a sound
Em Bm D
In the bowels of history and time
Em Bm D
I have learned to stay back and never shine
C
Now I feel stupid when I smile
D D7
For not a journey, a circus are our lives
[Interlude]
(G Am) Bm D Bm D (Bm Am)
[Verse 4]
D Em Bm D
I can't make up for everything I waste
Em Bm D
And I know that I could never afford a taste
G Em Bm D
Of anything that your lovely hands make
Em Bm D
It eats away with a force so great
C
Just because it brings a smile to my face
D D7
Such a bad memory, you just can't erase
[Verse 5]
G Em Bm D
I know of a city to steal from
Em Bm D
And I know of a city to cheat on
G Em Bm D
And I know of a city of sin
Em Bm D
And that's the place I wanna meet you in
C
And say hello all over again
D
Romance me, take it back to the beginning
[Outro]
