Intro: G F Am G (x4)
C G
Well bravo,
Am F
You lit a light in my life,
Am G
Raised them chips and railroads,
Am F
Headed off into the night.
Am G
But you were just like the government,
Am F
Lying all the time,
Am G
With a shattered piece of way-back-when
C F
Stuck, forever in your mind.
G F
When, baby, it was you and me,
Am G F
One step forward, two step fighting infidelity,
Am G
Which always is velvet-covered.
C G
I woke,
Am F
I awoke into a ghost
Am G
Of a ship that sailed,
Am F
But I'ma laugh it up the most,
Am G
'Cause I no longer have to worry
C F
'Bout the shadows on your walls.
Am G
Can you remember how proud we were
F
Right before the fall?
G F
When, baby, it was you and me,
Am G F
One step forward, two step fighting infidelity,
Am G
Though, truly we don't mind
F
Sleeping on a different bed,
Am G
Long as you got velvet covers.
F
Shouting it out to remind you,
Am G
Hangin' it out to dry.
