Private Ale
G#----------------(muted)--------------------------
I wonder down these streets all by myself
G#----------------(muted)---------------- C#
Think of my future now I just don't know
C# G#
I don't seem to care
G#----------------(muted)----------------------
I stop to notice that I'm by your home
G#----------------(muted)------- C#
I wonder if you're sitting all alone
C# G#
Or is your boyfriend there?
CHORUS:
C# G# Eb
Because I feel so right
C# G# Eb
Let my imagination go
C# G# Eb
Until you're in my sight
C# G# Eb
And through my veins temptation flows
BREAK:
F#--G# F# C# X4
(quick slide)
VERSE 2 (same chords as the first)
So I sit down here on the hard concrete
Think of my future now I just don't know
I don't seem to care .
So I sit across the street from your home
I wonder if you're sitting all alone
Or is your boyfriend there?

He makes a plan to take a stand but always ends up sitting
Someone help him up or he is gonna end up quitting

I shuffle through my mindto see if i can find the world i left behind
Was it just a dream that happened long ago...oh, well nevermind
