When one of us would leave
B                  G
A thumbtack stuck showing 
Em           A       C#  E*
Where we were going



B                G
All the time, you wore a hole
      Em              A        D     A
The same place tacked over and over
B            G            Em  
And I never go there
    A         D
I never go there

I watched it falling to            the floor
B            G
