well i'm supposed to be studying for exams right now so i figured this would be the perfect time to dick around and write this out. the piano chords are posted on ron pope's myspace but this is just a really simple way of playing it on acoustic guitar, in a completely different key. i play it with a capo on the third fret for my voice. intro: C G D Em C G D G (i like to add my pinky to each chord so it kind of mimicks the piano version) verse C G D Em i drove eleven hundred miles to find a photograph i'd lost C G D G it's just a polaroid i used to keep of a girl that i once loved C G D Em and sleep, it leads to nightmares, as i never can forget C G D G so now i'm dreaming of los angeles as the winter closes in C G D G said i'm dreaming of los angeles as the winter closes in *play intro chords* C G D Em and we met seven english girls who asked if we'd like to see God C G D G and i'm not one for missed adventures, so i answered with a smile C G D Em we spent the night on razor's edge, all innocence and sin C G D G and now i'm strung out on the bowery as the winter closes in C G D G now i'm strung out on the bowery as the winter closes in chorus: C G D Em and i won't cry if you can't love me like the way it used to feel C G D G we had our summer on long island, now there's wounds that never healed C G D Em and i won't cry if you can't love me like the way it used to feel C G D we had our summer on long island, now there's wounds...that never healed *play intro chords* (for the second set stop at D) (play each chord with one down stroke) C G D Em i'd paint a picture of my mother, but i can't recall her face C G D G she's even far away at midnight, when her laughter haunts my dreams C G D Em i ain't never been this broken, i've got nothing left to give C G D G so now i'm searching for salvation as the winter closes in C G D Em i said i'm searching for salvation as the winter closes in C G D G man i'm searching for salvation as the winter closes in C G D Em and i won't cry if you can't love me like the way it used to feel C G D G we had our summer on long island, now there's wounds that never healed C G D Em and i won't cry if you can't love me like the way it used to feel C G D G we had our summer on long island, now there's wounds that never healed C G D Em oh oh ohhhhhhhhhhhhh oh oh ohhhhhhhhhh oh oh C G D G oh oh ohhhhhhhhhhhhh oh oh ohhhhhhhhhh oh oh C G D Em oh oh ohhhhhhhhhhhhh oh oh ohhhhhhhhhh oh oh C G D G oh oh ohhhhhhhhhhhhh oh oh ohhhhhhhhhh oh oh outro: C G D Em oh oh ohhhhhhhhhhh oh oh C G D post script: after i post this the chords will probably misplace themselves. im not really sure how to fix that.
