*The climb is played on the A string, an open A, B, then C. C/B is supposed to be played 020010*
Capo 2
C
Twenty years to see New York reflected on subway trains
C
'Bout twenty more I'll be forty-four, head back to Tampa Bay
Am F C
I killed a man there, in spite, and when he died, I took his place
C
Eighteen made you callous to the kisses that you gave
C
A coarse exchange, a cause for blame, and I stood out in the rain
Am F C
You killed a man there, and I cried, but the rain masked the hurt behind your face
Am F
By the way dear we're alive, and it hurts cause we survived it
*slide down to C on A string*
C E Am F x4
[Chorus]
C Am F C C/B
Goodbye love, and good luck in life, and goodnight Chicago, die with a smile
Am F C Am F C
You'd have loved her, loved her, but you won't, you don't know, no no no no no no
E Am F C
Don't shut down on me now, don't shut down on me
E Am F C
Don't shut down on me now, don't shut down on me
E Am F
Don't wait until I drown to save me from it
C E Am F
Goodnight Chicago, I killed a man to make you love me
C Am F
If the water's warm, filling up my head, I take
C Am F
Another one, Lord knows it's hard to stay
C E Am F
Sober! When heaven's in your past and you have hell to pay
C F
Sorry, I'm hung over, but I'm sorry that I'm late
C
Eighteen made you callous to the kisses that you gave
F
In one more I stood out in the rain
[Chorus]
