F5                   A5         E5             A5
Finally the tether breaks on Tuesday night I ring
 F5                   A5           E5
He says we can get together, but he's staying in
 F5                 A5     E5             A5
One more night, inside, I mean you have to do what feels right
 F5                   A5                  E5
But in the morning light its cold, its cold, it's so cold
 F5        A5       E5        A5
Please let me stay, please let me stay
 F5                      A5                     E5
But he's trying to get me out the door in his diplomatic way
 F5                   A5
I had speeches, I had scenes
           E5                       A5
Now I have quiet memories and the occasional dream
 F5                   A5
I've laid to rest my craziness
 E5   E5   F5 A5 E5  A5  F5 A5 E5
for for today today today...

 F5                   A5
I'm bleeding like a soldier
 E5                   A5
Into your pint of pride
 F5                          A5
A pack of straights and a corner seat
 E5
This was the last time I cried
 F5                   A5
Why could you only be a man
 E5             A5
When you had a drink in your hand?
 F5               A5
One more night inside
 E5
And more for the road
        F5  A5        E5 A5
I had speeches, I had scenes
           F5           A5          E5
Now I have quiet memories and the occasional dream
 F5            A5      E5    A5
I've laid to rest my craziness
 E5   E5   F5 A5 E5  A5  F5 A5 E5
for for today today today...

Finally the tether breaks on Tuesday night I ring
 F5                   A5            E5
He says baby we can get together, but he's staying in
 F5                   A5        E5               A5
One more night, inside, I mean you have to do what feels right
 F5                   A5         E5             A5
But in the morning light its cold, its cold
