Verse:
A F#m
I’m coming into your town.
E A
Night is falling to the ground,
F#m E D
but I can still see where you loved yourself
A D
before he tore it all down. April 12th,
A D
with nobody else around; you were outside the house
E F#m
(where’s your mother?),
E A F#m
when he put you in the car,
E A
when he took you down the road.
F#m E D
And I can still see where it was open,
A D
the door he slammed closed. It was open,
A D E
the door he slammed closed. It was open, long ago.
Chorus:
A E F#m
But don’t lose me now, don’t lose me now.
D A
Though I know that I’m not useful anyhow,
F#m E
just let me stick around
A E
while I tell you, like before,
F#m D A
you should say his name the way that he said yours.
F#m E
But you don't want to say his name anymore. Oh, Cynda Moore.
Intro
F#m E A
Baby daughter on the road,
F#m E A
you’re wrapped up warm in daddy’s coat.
F#m E D
And I can still see the cigarette’s heat.
A D
I can’t believe all that you're telling me,
A D
what is cutting like the smoke through your teeth
E
as you’re telling me “forget it.”
F#m E A
But if I could tear his throat,
F#m E A
and spill his blood between my jaws,
F#m E
and erase his name out for good,
D
don’t you know that I would?
A
Don't you realize that I wouldn’t pause,
D A
that I would cut him down with my claws
D E
if I could have somehow never let that happen?
A E
Or I’d call, some black midnight,
F#m D A
fuck up his new life where they don’t know what he did,
F#m E
tell his brand-new wife and his second kid.
A E
Though I tell you, like before,
F#m D A
that you should wreck his life the way that he wrecked yours,
F#m E
you want no part of his life anymore.
Oh Cynda Moore,
Intro
A E F#m
don’t lose me now, let me help you out.
D A
Though I know that I can’t help anyhow,
F#m E
when I watch you I’m proud.
A E
When I tell you twice before
F#m D A
that you should wreck his life the way that he wrecked yours,
F#m E
you want no part of his life anymore.
D A E
oh Cynda Mo - ore.
D A E
And it’ll never be the way it was before,
D A E
but I wish that you would let me through that door.
D A E (or Intro bit)
end on E
Take Care.
