VERSE:

D5                       E5
    You?re banging your drum

                      C5          G5
    You blow your own trumpet

D5                  E5
    Your ship came in

                     C5          G5
    And your fanfare sunk it

D5                E5                        F5       G5
    The tide has turned, our love?s gone forever,   ever

E5                F#5
    I stand on the shore

                          G5        G5
    As it floats down the river,   river


CHORUS:

D5       F5
I had such hopes

                   Bb5           G5 G5
I had such visions planned

    D5        F5
The frames were shot

                     Bb5         G5 G5
But now our future?s canned

A5                                         G5
    I had my hopes so high they fell right down

A5                                         G5
    I had my hopes so high they fell right down

VERSE:
D5                E5
I?m banging my head

C5                    G5
You watch without malice
(You watch with no interest at all)

D5                E5
I bet all your friends

C5                    G5
Compare this to ?Dallas?
(I might as well talk to a brick wall)

D5               E5            F5       G5
So under the arm I feel the cold shoulder

E5                F#5
So I?ll once again 

                G5        G5
have to play the wild rover

D5 F5            Bb5         G5 G5
Do I need all this pressure

D5 F5      Bb5        G5 G5
Do I bury my temper

D5                                       F5
    I had my hopes so high they fell right down

A5                                         G5
    I had my hopes so high they fell right down
