John met me down at the boulevard
G Em
Cry on his shoulder 'cause life is hard
C D
The waves came in over my head
G Em
What you been up to my baby?
G Em
Haven't seen you 'round here lately
C D* B7*
All of the guys tell me lies but you don't
Em Eb+
You just crack another beer
G Dbº
And pretend that you're still here
C D* B7* Em Bm
This is how to disappear
C D G Em
This is how to disappear
G Em
Jim met me down at the training yard
G Em
Got cuts on his face 'cause he fought too hard
C D
I know he's in over his head
G Em
But I love that man like nobody can
G Em
He moves mountains and turns them to ground again
C D* B7*
And I watched the guys getting high as they fight
Em Eb+
For the things that they hold dear
G Dbº
To forget the things they fear
C D* B7* Em Bm
And this is how they disappear
C D* B7* Em Bm
This is how they disappear
G Em
Well now, it's been years since I left New York
G Em
And I've got a kid and two cats in the yard
C D
The California sun and the movie stars
C D* B7*
And I watched the skies getting light as I write
Em Eb+
As I think about those years
G Dbº
And I whisper in your ear
C D* B7* Em Bm
I'm always going to be right here
C D* B7* Em Bm
No one's going anywhere
C D* B7* Em Bm
I'm always going to be right here
C D G
No one's going anywhere
