Tom:GG D E7 C9
Happy, smilin', cryin' upwards to my past,
G D E7 C9
I guess those stormy gray skies simply couldn't last.
G D E7 C9
And now I find myself a-tugging at your dress.
G D E7 C9
The funnel holding me down, oh see the cloud, it's never gonna pass.
Break: G-D-E7-C9 (2x)
(bass in here, see my bass tab for the cool riff)
G5 D5 E5C5
Somewhere there's a place a soul can never go,
G5 D5 E5C5
Gray-like stormy skies I hoped you didn't know.
G5 D5 E5 C5
All our postcards full of things I won't forget.
G D E7 C9
And now it's coming down, that laughing clown is all I ever get.
G D E7 C9
Another second time around, I've been runnin' from ya
G D E7C9
Another second time around.
G D E7C9
Another second, one more second time, I waited for ya,
G D E7C9
Another second time around.
D5 C5
Couldn't help myself,
D5C5D5
I felt like everything was gonna pass.
C5>
It was an awkward time,
D5C5
I hoped it wouldn't, hoped it couldn't last.
(Solo like only Johnny Rzeznik does...)
G5D5E5 C5
And I didn't know exactly what to say,
G5 D5 E5 D5
About the things you saw me do my evil way.
(*** add riff at bottom **)
G5 D5 E5C5
And I know you're lyin', cryin' in your bed.
G D E7 C9
Well I'm all tired out, so wired out, it's ringing in my head.
G D E7 C9
Another second time around, I've been runnin' from ya
G D E7C9
Another second time around.
G D E7C9
Another second, one more second time, I waited for ya,
G D E7C9
Another second time around.
G D E7C9
Another second time around.
G D E7C9
Another second time around.
End on G
