(Intro) D,G,D,G,D,G,Bm7,Esus4,E,Esus4
[Verse]
D G
Six am Day after Christmas
D G
I throw some clothes on in the dark
D G
The smell of cold, car seat is freezing
D G D
the world is sleeping I am, numb.
Up the stairs, to her apartment
she is balled up on the couch
Her mom and dad, went down to Charlotte
they're not home to find us out-
(BRIDGE)
Bm7 G
And we drive
Bm7 G
Now that I have found someone
D G
I'm feeling more alone
Bm7 Esus4,E,Esus4
than I ever have before
(CHORUS)
G A Dmaj9
She's a brick and I'm drowning slowly
G A Dmaj9
off the coast and I'm heading no where
G A Dmaj9
She's a brick and I'm drowning slowly--
G,A,G,D
(Same Chords and rythm as opening verse)
[Verse]
They call her name
at seven thirty
I pace around the Paking lot
Then I walk down
to buy her flowers
and sell some gifts that I got
(Bridge chords)
Can't you see,
It's not me,
you're dying for
Now she's feeling more alone
Then she ever has before
(CHORUS)
(Chords on outro of 2nd chorus)
G,A,G,A,D/F#,G,D
G,A,G,A,D/F#,G
Esus E Gsus G D Dsus
As weeks went by it showed that she was not fine
Esus E Gsus G D Dsus
They told me son it's time to tell the truth and
Esus E Gsus G
she broke down, and I broke down
D Dsus Esus E Esus G D,G,D,G
cause I was tired---- of lying
(Verse 4)
Driving back, to her apartment
for the moment we're alone
Yeah she's alone, and I'm alone
and now I know it.
(Chorus)
Bm7 A/C#
...drowning slowly G,A,G,A,D/F#,G,D
There it is. Enjoy. RightChords!
