I've been turning it over and over again
Like a stone I'm waiting to wish on
I've been holding my breath, just wondering when
You'll make some sort of decision
To let me in or to let me go
I always lose if I never know where I fit in
Baby, you win again

Last night I dreamed we were standing here
On the corner of Love and Heartache
You jumped into your car, you found first gear
And baby, I felt the earth shake
And I woke up trembling with my heart in my throat
'Cause there's never a look, a word, or a note at the bitter end
Baby, you win again

I can't be right if I'm always wrong
I can't stand up if I'm always kneeling
At your altar or at your throne
You could show just a little feeling for who I am
Baby, you win again

INTRO TAB:

Actually, this is played on an electric guitar with no capo (key of D),
but I've written it here in C with a capo at the 2nd fret.
