3′ 2’ 2′ 2′ 1′ 7 1′ (3’1’5) 2′
I am some-one who, un-til re-cent

2′ 2′ 1′ (75) 1′ 3′ 2′
e-vents, you shared your se-crets

2′ 1′ 7 1′ (3’57) 2′ 2′ 1′ (3’57) 2′ 2′ 1′ (53)
with, and your lo-ca-tion: you for-got to turn it off.

5 2′ 1′ (75) 1′ (3’1’5) 2′
And so I watch as you walk

5 5 2′ 1′ (75) 1′ 3′ 2′
in-to some bar called The Black Dog

5 2′ 1′ 7 1′ (3’57) 2′
and pierce new holes in my heart.

2′ 1′ (3’57) 2′ 2′ 1′ (53)
You for-got to turn it off.

5 5 2′ 1′ 6
And it hits me:

1′ 3′ (1’63) 2′ 5′ (5’3′)
I just don’t un-der-stand

5 5 5 2′ (3’1’5)     5 5 2′ (3’1’5)
How you don’t miss me in the Black Dog

5 2′ (3’1’5)    5 5 (3’1′) 3′ 2′
when some-one plays “The Start-ing Line.”

1′ 6 2′ (3’1’5)   5 5 2′ (3’1’5)     5 5 2′ (3’1’5)
And you jump up, but she’s too young to know this song

5 5 3′ 3′ 2′ 1′ 6 (3’1’5) 3′ 3′ 2′ 2′ (5’72’) 5′ (1’61)
that was in-ter-twined in the mag-ic fab-ric of our dream-ing.

(3’1’5) 3′ 2′ 1′ 4′ (5’5) 1′
Old hab-its die scream-ing.

5 3′ 2’     2′ 2′ 1′ 7 1′ (3’1’5) 2′
I move through the world with the heart-bro-ken.

2′ 2′ 1′ (75) 1′ 3′ 2′
My long-ings stay un-spo-ken

2′ 2′ 1′ 7 1′ (3’57) 2′ 2′ 1′ (3’57) 2′ 2′ 1′ (53)
and I may nev-er o-pen up the way I did for you.

5 2′ 1′ (75) 1′ (3’1’5) 2′
And all of those best-laid plans,

5 5 2′ 1′ (75) 1′ (3’1′) 2′
you said I need-ed a brave man,

5 2′ 1′ 7 1′ (3’57) 2′ 2′ 1′ (3’57) 2′ 2′ 1′ (53)
then pro-ceed-ed to play him un-til I be-lieved it, too.

5 5 2′ 1′ 6
And it kills me.

1′ 3′ (1’63) 2′ 5′ (5’3′)
I just don’t un-der-stand

5 5 5 2′ (3’1’5)     5 5 2′ (3’1’5)
how you don’t miss me in the show-er

5 5 2′ (3’1’5)   5 5 3′ 3′ 2′ 1′ 6 2′ (3’1’5)
and re-mem-ber how my rain-soaked bod-y was shak-ing.

5 5 2′ (3’1’5)   5 5 2′ (3’1’5)  5 5 3′ 3′ 2′ 1′ 6
Do you hate me? Was it haz-ing for a cruel fra-ter-ni-ty?

(3’1’5) 3′ 2′ 2′ (5’72’) 5′ (1’61)
I pledged, and I still mean it.

(3’1’5) 3′ 2′ 1′ 4′ (5’5) 1′
Old hab-its die scream-ing.

3 6 6 7 7 (1’6) 4 4 4 4 4 4 (31)
Six weeks of breath-ing clean air, I still miss the smoke.

3 3 6 6 7 7 (1’5) 5 5 5 5 5 4 (31)
Were you mak-ing fun of me with some es-o-ter-ic joke?

3 3 6 6 7 7 (1’6) 4 4 4 4 4 4 (31)
Now I want to sell my house and set fire to all my clothes,

2′ 2′ 2′ 2′ 2′ 2′ 2′ 2′ 2′ 2′ 1′
and hire a priest to come and ex-or-cise my

(5’5) 1′ 2′ 2′ 2′ 1′ 1′
de-mons, e-ven if I die

(4’6) (5’72’) (5’5) 4′ (3’1′)   4′ (3’1’5) (2’7) (1’5)
scream-ing.

1′ 2′ (1’6) 1’   (5’72’) 6′ 5′ 4′ (3’1′)   4′ (3’1’5) (2’7) (1’35)
And I hope you hear it.

5 5 5 5 2′ (3’1’5)    5 5 2′ (3’1’5)
And I hope it’s shit-ty in The Black Dog

5 2′ (3’1’5)    5 5 (3’1’5) 3′ 2′
when some-one plays “The Start-ing Line.”

1′ 6 2′ (3’1’5)   5 5 2′ (3’1’5)     5 5 2′ (3’1’5)
And you jump up, but she’s too young to know this song

1′ 1′ 3′ 3′ 2′ 1′ 6 (3’1’5) 3′ 3′ 2′ 2′ (5’72’) 5′ (1’61)
that was in-ter-twined in the trag-ic fab-ric of our dream-ing.

1′ (3’1’5) 3′ 2′ 2′ 2′ (1’5)       5′ (5’5)
‘Cause tail be-tween your legs, you’re leav-ing.

3′ 3′ (2’7) 1′ (5’5) 1’  1′ 3′ 3′ 2′ (1’5) 5′ (5’35)
I still can’t be-lieve it ’cause old hab-its die scream-ing.
