F#5 E5 Eb5 Lydia keeps my toothbrush in her apartment and she never complains. E5 F#5 Well, hardly ever. And then jokingly she says E5 Eb5 Boy, it's been so long since I held you, I nearly gave you up for dead. E5 I nearly gave you up for dead. C#5 C#5 I nearly gave you up for dead. Chorus: F#5 B5 Lydia, Lydia how come you understand? E5 I can offer you nothing at all. Eb5 C#5 - C#5 This is more than I had planned. F#5 B5 E5 Lydia, Lydia I am at your command, at least until morning comes, Ab5 Then, I must be off again. D5 E5 F#5 I must be off again F#5 E5 Lydia, you know I always talk about making conscious decisions Eb5 About running my own life. E5 F#5 Well, maybe I'm fooling myself, it's a role I like to play. E5 Because more often than not I'm down here on the corner. Eb5 I'm sorry I woke you. E5 Do you feel like some company? C#5 C#5 F#5 Babe, I need a place to stay. Repeat chorus Orchestra solo: Same chords as in verse: Repeat chorus F#5 E5 I sleep with a woman who thinks I'm a child. Eb5 Well, maybe I am. E5 No, that wouldn't surprise anyone. F#5 I suspect that much is true. E5 Eb5 But, Lydia, if you only knew how much I love you. E5 Did you know that I love you? C#5 C#5 It's the best that I can do. Chorus
