VERSE

G – C – Em – Em*

G C Em Em* x2

I saw you at the police station and it breaks my heart to say

Your eyes had wandered off to something distant cold and grey

Relate to the song for strumming patterns, everything’s good from G to C, but the
there’s a little fill from the Em – Em*

(Em - Em*)

PRE-CHROUS

Example :

Amin7

I guess you didn’t see it coming, someone’s gotten used to slumming,

G(Variation)

Dreaming of the golden years, I see you had to change careers.

Amin7

Far away, but we both know it’s somewhere..

Amin7 (Do this until the G comes in - G(Variation)

And then it’s back to the 2ND VERSE

G C Em Em* x2

I saw you on the back page of some free press yesterday

The driftwood in your eyes had nothing short of love for pay



2ND PRE-CHROUS


Amin7

I know you from another picture, someone with the most conviction

G(Variation)

We used to read the funny papers, fool around and pull some capers

Amin7

Not today, I send a message to her

D D7

A message that I’m coming, I’m coming to pursue her

D D7

G C Em Em* x2

I saw you on a Tee-vee station and it made me wanne pray

An empty shell of loveliness is now dusted with decay

What happened to the funny paper, smiling was your money maker

All the way, time to come and find you

You can’t hide from me girl, so never mind what I do
