G
Staring in the mirror with two borrowed eyes
G
Looking for a part of me that's still alive
C9
G
Waiting for my chest to fall 'n rise
G
Standing on the corner with my shirt tucked in
G
Summer turns to autumn winter turns to spring
C9
And it all flies by
G
Like a speeding train
Em
G
Dead wishes on a broken chain
Bm
D
White roses in a dead man's dream
Em
Down and out
Am7M
With everything to lose
C9
If these long dead wishes
G
Never do come true
G
Waiting for the night to come and chase away
G
All the flies hovering around my head
C9
With my memories for a pillow
G
And all my regrets for a bed
G
Standing on the corner now I'm passed surprise
G
Yelling out a warning to some passer by
C9
I stand just as god made me
G
And i lie down in disguise
Em
G
Dead wishes on a burning lake
Bm
D
White roses for my soul to keep
Em
Am7M
Diving down with everything to win
C9
If my long since sunken ship
G
Ever does come in
Down and down we all fall down
C9
Time keeps moving slower
D#
Like falling from the sun
G
Come and knock me over
C9
I keep getting up
D#
Throw a line down to me
G
Keep hanging on
G
Standing on the corner don't apologize
G
You don't have to bow your head or raise your eyes
C
Or pretend that you don't see me
Em
G
Dead wishes on a broken chain
Bm
D
White roses in a dead man's dream
Em
Down and out
Am7M
With everything to lose
C9
If these long dead wishes
C9
These long dead wishes
G
Ever do come true
Down and down we all fall down
