Smoke and cinder, steel in an ashtray
Em G C
In a dingy bar where romances are born
Em G C
The sound of Denver seeping from the jukebox
G D C G
But no country road could ever take us home
Em G C
She speaks like raging tides against the coastline
Em G C
I'm rendered ragged by things that she might know
Em G C
The whiskey and this feeling bring me back to better times
G D C
Let it go let it go let it go

Wait you remind me of someone I used to love
G G/F#
Wait she revived me

The city is burning right now I'm dying

Well there I go digging graves for every single pretty girl
G D C
Pretty soon they'll be no more left to move
G D Em C
And I'll be filling holes with a longing in my soul

If it's one of those things I tend to lose
G D Em C
