TAILLIGHTS FADE
by Buffalo Tom

Em	-	Am	-	D	-	G	-	D/F#		Em
VERSE
Sister can you hear me now
Ringing in your ears
I'm down on the ground
My luck's been tried for years

I'm lost in the dark
And I feel like a dinosaur
Broken face and broken hands
I'm a broken man

CHORUS
I've hit the wall
I'm about to fall
But I'm closing in on it
I feel so weak
On a losing streak
Watch my taillights fade to black

VERSE
I read a thing about this girl
She was a hermit in her world
Her story was much like mine
She could be my valentine

And although we've never met
I won't forget her yet
She cut herself off from her past
She's alone at last

CHORUS
I feel so sick
Lost love's last fix
But I'm closing down on it
I feel so weak
On a losing streak
Watch my taillights fade to black

VERSE
Lost my life in cheap wine
Now it's quiet time
And I can't dig no Jesus Christ
He could not help my faith

But I'm underneath a gun
I'm singing 'bout my past
Had myself a wonderful thing
But I could not make it last

CHORUS
I've hit the wall
I'm about to fall
But I'm closing in on it
I feel so small
Underneath it all
Watch my taillights fade to black
..Watch my taillights fade
..Watch my taillights fade
..Watch my taillights fade
