G D F#7 Bm D/A
[Verse 1]
G D
So long ago, I don't remember when
F#7 Bm D/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 D/A
As I listened through the cemetery trees
[Interlude]
G D F#7 Bm D/A
[Verse 2]
G D
I seen the sun comin' up at the funeral at dawn
F#7 Bm D/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 D/A
I wondered how she hung around this place
[Pre-Chorus]
G G F#7 F#7
Hey
[Chorus]
G
Come on try a little
D
Nothing is forever
Em7 A
Got to be something better than
In the middle
G
Me & Cinderella
D
Put it all together
Em7 A A7sus4
We can drive it home
G
With one headlight
[Instrumental]
(G) D F#7 Bm D/A
[Verse 3]
G
She said it's cold
D
It feels like Independence Day
F#7 Bm D/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 D/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 D/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 D/A
She hit the end-it's just her window ledge
[Pre-Chorus]
G G F#7 F#7
Hey hey
[Chorus]
G
Come on try a little
D
Nothing is forever
Em7 A
Got to be something better than
In the middle
G
Me & Cinderella
D
Put it all together
Em7 A A7sus4
We can drive it home
G
With one headlight
[Instrumental]
(G) D F#7 Bm D/A
G D F#7 Bm D/A
[Verse 4]
G
Well this place is old
D
It feels just like a beat up truck
F#7 Bm D/A
I turn the engine, but the engine doesn't turn
G
Well it smells of cheap wine & cigarettes
D
This place is always such a mess
F#7 Bm D/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 D/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 D/A
I think her death it must be killin' me
[Pre-Chorus]
G G F#7 F#7
Hey hey hey
[Chorus]
G
Come on try a little
D
Nothing is forever
Em7 A
Got to be something better than
In the middle
G
Me & Cinderella
D
Put it all together
Em7
We can drive it home
