[Verse 1]
A#m F C#
Tell me, wasn't I in your dreams
D#m7
I reached out as I was falling asleep
D#m
Thought that
you
were next to me
F7 A#m
And opened up my eyes
A#m F
Baby, you
gotta let me know
C# D#m7
What’s the rhyme and reason for this most recent blow
D#m Gb
I can't take much more of this
F7 A#m
My heart will flutter back into it's cage
[Chorus]
D#m
You left me on the line (last night)
D#m7 C#
Happens all the time (to me)
Gb/C# D#m G#7
Thinking that I might
F7 A#m/F
Pack it up and throw it all away
D#m
You left me on the line (last night)
D#m7 C#
Happens all the time (to me)
Gb/C# D#m G#
Thinking that I might
F7 A#m/F
Pack it up and throw it all away

There child, you gotta take it slow
C#
If you move with haste

You’ll make the waste of the toast

Grab yourself another drink

And try to see the bottom of your cup

You left me on the line (last night)
D#m7 C#
Happens all the time (to me)
Gb/C# D#m G#7

I see reflections of my mortal self projected on the wall
