One Headlight-Wallflowers

 

 

D~         G  D  F#  F#7  Bm  Bm/A

 

               G                                D

               So long ago I don't remember when

                           F#                      F#7               Bm       Bm/A

               That's when they say I lost my only friend

               But, since she died easy of a broken heart disease

               I listen through the cemetery trees            G  D  F#(add 7)  Bm  Bm/A

 

               I seen the sun comin' up at the funeral at dawn

               The long broken arm of human law

               Now, it always seemed such a waste, she always had a pretty face

               I wondered why she hung around this place

 

               G G7 F#   F#7

                       Hey~~~~~~

                       G                               D

                       Come on try a little, nothing lasts forever

                      Em                                           A

                       There's got to be something better than in the middle

                       Me and Cinderella, we put it all together

                       We can drive it home with one headlight...

 

               She said it's cold, it feels like Independence Day

               I can't break away from this parade

               But, there's got to be an opening somewhere here in front of me

               Through this maze of ugliness and greed

 

               They seen a sign up ahead at the county line ridge

               Said that all is good, and nothing else is dead

               We'll run until she's out of breath, she ran until there's nothing left

               She hit the end, it's just a window ledge

                       Hey~~~~~~

                       Come on try a little, nothing lasts forever

                       There's got to be something better than in the middle

                       Me and Cinderella, we put it all together

                       We can drive it home with one headlight...

                                            *Solo*       G  D  Em  A

 

               This place is old, it feels just like a beat up truck

               I turn the engine, but the engine doesn't turn

               It smells of cheap wine and cigarettes, this place is always such a mess

               Sometimes I think I'd like to watch it burn

 

               I'm so old, I feel just like somebody else

               When I ain't changed, but I know I ain't the same

               But somewhere here in-between these city walls of dying dreams

               I think that death must be killing me

                       Hey~~~~~~

                       Come on try a little, nothing lasts forever

                       There's got to be something better than in the middle

                       Me and Cinderella, we put it all together

                       We can drive it home with one headlight...
