Finally the tether breaks on Tuesday night I ring
F Am E
He says we can get together, but he's staying in
F Am E Am
One more night, inside, I mean you have to do what feels right
F Am E
But in the morning light its cold, its cold, it's so cold
F Am E Am
Please let me stay, please let me stay
F Am E
But he's trying to get me out the door in his diplomatic way
F Am
I had speeches, I had scenes
E Am
Now I have quiet memories and the occasional dream
F Am
I've laid to rest my craziness
E F AmE F AmE
for for today today today...
F Am
I'm bleeding like a soldier
E Am
Into your pint of pride
F Am
A pack of straights and a corner seat
E
This was the last time I cried
F Am
Why could you only be a man
E Am
When you had a drink in your hand?
F Am
One more night inside
E
And more for the road
F Am E Am
I had speeches, I had scenes
F Am E
Now I have quiet memories and the occasional dream
F Am E Am
I've laid to rest my craziness
E F AmE F AmE
for for today today today...

Finally the tether breaks on Tuesday night I ring

F Am E Am
One more night, inside, I mean you have to do what feels right
F Am E Am
But in the morning light its cold, its cold
