1. Dark Corner
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
C#m
Wrote this when I was 39
A
Still in my head but out of mind
E G#
But there is something inside I cant resolve
C#m
A portrait of a perfect life
A
Two lovely kids, a loving wife
E G#
A servant to the things I cant control
A E
In this heart there is a dark corner
B G#m
With a space for everyone
A E
I give it all and try until my river is dry
B A E
But i feel like less when everyone moves on
C#m
I wonder if Ive spent my days
A
Trapped in an adolescent cage
E G#
Just pondering the future of us all?
C#m
Stated opinion, given back
A
The best that I can, stay on track
E
For most of it I cant remember
G#
Where we took the fall?
A E
In this heart there is a dark corner
B G#m
With a space for everyone
A E
I give it all and try until my river is dry
B A E
But I feel like less when everyone moves on
B A E
Yes I feel like less when everyone moves on

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed By: JimBlenderBR
- Verse 1:
D
I picture your face everyday of my life
G
And struggle to come up with lyrics
D A
But lately it's honesty that keeps me around
D
A pint of their best and a seat with a view
G
This corner looks all too familiar
D
I just wanna tell you "I love you, I'm safe
A G
on "Devonshire and Crown"
- Chorus:
Bm
Who knows which letter just might be the last
G
This song will be done by the end of this glass
D A
Hey brown eyes, I hope you are sleeping and dreaming of clouds
Bm
Here comes another three-dollar cliché
G
I nod to the barman and he does the same
D Em
And again and again and again and again I am down
G A
But so prown
- Verse 2:
D
It's summer where you are, it's winter down here
G
You're sleeping, I'm already boozing
D
All the cool kids are speaking their minds
A
But I cannot hear
D
'Cause people are sounding like white noise these days
G
They fancy themselves as a critic
D A G
But I think of you and it takes me away to a perfect place
- Chorus:
Bm
Who knows which letter just might be the last
G
This song will be done by the end of this glass
D A
Hey brown eyes, I hope you are sleeping and dreaming of clouds
Bm
Here comes another three-dollar cliché
G
I nod to the barman and he does the same
D Em
And again and again and again and again I am down
G A D
But so prown

He walks down the street with his head by his feet

A shell of a guy we once knew

She took over his life and ripped out his spine

He thinks and he acts ninety-two

Now as we get old he won’t be alone

Surrounded by all of his fools

Not known for conflict but constantly fights

And lets others know through the mill

So when he wakes up

I hope that he will appreciate everything real
