You can tell Gayle, if she calls,
D E
that I'm famous now for all of these rock and roll songs.
A F#m D E
And even if that's a lie, she should've given me a try.
F#m E D A
When we were kids on the field of the first day of school.
F#m E D
I would've been her fool.
F#m E D A
And I would've sang out your name in those old high school halls.
A E A
You tell that to Gayle, if she calls.
A F#m
And you can tell Jane, if she writes,
D E
that I'm drunk off all these stars and all these crazy Hollywood nights.
A F#m D E
That's total deceit, but she should've married me.
F#m E D A
And tell her I spent every night of my youth on the floor,
F#m E D
bleeding out from all kinds of wounds.
F#m E D A
And I would've gotten you a ride out of that town you despised.
A E A
You tell that to Janey, if she writes.
F#m D A E
But boys will be boys and girls have those eyes
F#m D A E
that will cut you to ribbons sometimes.
F#m D A E
And all you can do is just wait by the moon
F#m D A E
and bleed if it's what she says you oughta do.

You remind Nana, if she asks why,
D E
that a thief stole my heart while she was making up her mind.
A F#m
I heard she lives in Brooklyn with the cool,
E D
goes crazy over that New York scene on 7th Avenue.
F#m E D A
But I used to wait at the diner, a million nights without her,
F#m E D
praying she won't cancel again tonight.
F#m E D A
And the waiter served my coffee with a consolation sigh.
A E A
You remind Nana, if she asks why.
A F#m D E
Tell her it’s alright
A F#m D E
You know it's hard to tell you this.

Here's looking at you, Kid.
