Mary, this station is playing every sad song
F#m
I remember like we were alive
A
I heard and sung them all from inside of these walls
F#m
In a prison cell, where we spent those nights
A
And they burnt up the diner where I always used to find her
F#m
Licking young boys blood from her claws
A
And I learned about the blues from this kitten I knew
F#m
Her hair was raven and her heart was like a tomb.
My heart's like a wound.

I saw tail lights last night in a dream about my old (or whole) life
F#m D5 A E A
Everybody leaves, so why, why wouldn't you?
I saw tail lights...
A
Mary, I worried and stalled every night of my life
F#m
Better safe than making the party
A
And I never had a good time, I sat my bedside,
F#m
With papers and poetry about Estella.
With great expectations, we had the greatest expectations.
