Washington Square's right up the street.

Em                         F#m7
That was the place where we would meet.

                        Em
Outside the dog run don't be late,

G                        Bm
most of the time I'd sit and wait

                        G
looking at people pass me by.

Em                        F#m7
A customer's bagging his supply.

                        Em
Just when you thought she wouldn't show

G                             Bm                                               Em      G
there she comes running, don't you know


                                  Em      G
Daylight's wasting

     Em      G
Daylight

                      Em             G      
And I can taste it

                  Bm                    ( Em      G       x2)
as it falls from the sky


I had a band of certain fame,
the Brownstone Walk-Ups was our name.
The singer was fair but got it wrong,
he never did justice to my songs.
He did for me and that's a fact
when he went and stabbed me in the back.
So I've gotta do now, don't you know,
what I should've done five years ago.

Daylight's wasting
Daylight
And I can taste it
as it falls from the sky
