Verse 1

D
Given time I'd make amends
      A
For what I have become since I've been away

Grown a map about my eyes
      A
You never let me down, read between the lines

Verse 2

D
Given time I'd get a place
     A
To wash away the dirt; soak it up all day
D
This port town could fit the bill
      A
But you have got the keys; you have got the pills

There really is no mystery, We got this hour so why not use it?
