Wither Away


    E
Its noon when the front lights
        A
Cascade in the room
      E
Im tied to a blanket
A
All afternoon
                    E
And if she keeps me in the dark Im sure that I will die
            A
if she keeps me in the dark Im sure that I will die
            E
if she keeps me in the dark Im sure that I will die
     F#m              A         E
Eventually wither away

E
Everyones a customer
              A
Or a salesman nowadays
                 E
Theyll try to sell you chocolates
                              A 
When youre trying to catch a train

The telephone wires became a staff against the sky (3x)
Well all ya do is wither away

                F#m       A       E
Wither away  wither away (2x)

Musical Interlude
           
Im on a train back to the city
Holding flowers of sundown
Lettin the water flow so
That bouquet wont dry out


And if she keeps me in the dark Im sure that I will die (3x)
Eventually wither away


Musical interlude


Wither away, wither away (2x)
