G D
So long ago, I don' t remember when
F#7 Bm A
That' s when they say I lost my only friend
G D
Well they said she died easy of a broken heart disease
F#7 Bm A
As I listened through the cemetery trees
G D
I seen the sun comin' up at the funeral at dawn
F#7 Bm A
The long broken arm of human law
G D
Now it always seemed such a waste she always had a pretty face
F#7 Bm A
I wondered how she hung around this place
G F#7
Hey
G
Come on try a little
D
Nothing is forever
Em7 A
Got to be something better than
G
Me & amp Cinderella
D
Put it all together
Em7 A A4
We can drive it home
G
With one headlight
G
She said it' s cold
D
It feels like Independence Day
F#7 Bm A
And I can' t break away from this parade
G
But there' s got to be an opening
D
Somewhere here in front of me
F#7 Bm A
Through this maze of ugliness and greed
G
And I seen the sun up ahead
D
At the county line bridge
F#7 Bm A
Sayin' all there' s good and nothingness is dead
G
We' ll run until she' s out of breath
D
She ran until there' s nothin' left
F#7 Bm A
She hit the end-it' s just her window ledge
G F#7
Hey hey
G
Come on try a little
D
Nothing is forever
Em7 A
Got to be something better than
G
Me & amp Cinderella
D
Put it all together
Em7 A A4
We can drive it home
G
With one headlight
G
Well this place is old
D
It feels just like a beat up truck
F#7 Bm A
I turn the engine, but the engine doesn' t turn
G
Well it smells of cheap wine & amp cigarettes
D
This place is always such a mess
F#7 Bm A
Sometimes I think I' d like to watch it burn
G D
I' m so alone, and I feel just like somebody else
F#7 Bm A
Man, I ain' t changed, but I know I ain' t the same
G D
But somewhere here in between the city walls of dyin' dreams
F#7 Bm A
I think her death it must be killin' me
G F#7
Hey hey hey
G
Come on try a little
D
Nothing is forever
Em7 A
Got to be something better than
G
Me & amp Cinderella
D
Put it all together
Em7
We can drive it home
A ( Asus) G D Em7 A
With one headlight
