old chords — new key
: Gsus Asus
Go back home and
tell all the kids
this is what it’s like
when their hero hits the skids
go out to the farm and
tell my ma and pa
the higher you climb
the farther you must fall
V : Bm A D,A G
I started out thinking
that I’d always know the score
now I hardly know
what I was counting for
V – I have lost my one true love
my agent and my car
my condo and my dog
and twenty five guitars
CH : D A Bm,A G
Wake me up and say its all a dream
we could drink coffee and talk about what it all means
I dreamed I dreamed I threw it all away
If I could just wake up back in your arms today
V : but baby I was lost before
I left our town
I threw the map away
the day I put you down
V : yeah I hit the big time
but baby — the big time it hits back
and all the way up
I was looking back
CH : D A Bm,A G
V – I was on the fat side of heaven
how come it felt like hell
each day was a struggle
one day I just fell
V – The bottom dropped out
I laughed the whole way down
with a noose around yer neck
LA is a much nicer town

but baby I was lost before
I ever left our hometown
I threw my map away
the day I put you down
yeah I hit the big time
but the big time it hits back
and all the way up
I was looking back

I was on the fat side of heaven
how come I felt like hell
Each day was a struggle
One day I just fell
The bottom dropped out
I laffed the whole way down
with a noose around yer neck
