Verse 1

(Bb) Mary, this station is playing every sad song
(Gm) I remember like we were alive
(Bb) I heard and sung them all from inside of these walls
(Gm) In a prison cell, where we spent those nights
(Bb) And they burnt up the diner where I always used to find her
(Gm) Licking young boys’ blood from her claws
(Bb) And I learned about the blues from this kitten I knew
(Gm) Her hair was raven and her heart was like a tomb
(Eb) My heart’s like a (F) wound

Chorus

(F) And I saw (Gm) tail lights (Eb) last night (Bb) in a dream about my (F) first wife
(Gm) Everybody (Eb) leaves and I’d expect (Bb) as much from (F) you
(F) I saw (Gm) tail lights (Eb) last night (Bb) in a dream about my old (F) life
(Gm) Everybody (Eb) leaves, so (Bb) why, why (F) wouldn’t (Bb) you?

Verse 2

(Bb) Mary, I worried and stalled every night of my life
(Gm) Better safe than making the party
(Bb) And I never had a good time
(Bb) I sat by my bedside with (Gm) papers and poetry about Estella
(Eb) With great (F) expectations, we had the (Eb) greatest (F) expectations

Chorus

Bridge

(F) It’s funny (Gm) how (Eb) the night moves
(Gm) Humming a song from (Eb) 1962
We were always (F) waiting… (Eb) always (F) waiting
(Eb) We were always (F) waiting for something to (Gm) happen

Chorus

(F) I saw (Gm) tail lights (Eb) last night (Bb) in a dream about my (F) first wife
(Gm) Everybody (Eb) leaves and I’d expect (Bb) as much from (F) you
(F) I saw (Gm) tail lights (Eb) last night (Bb) in a dream about my old (F) life
(Gm) Everybody (Eb) leaves, so (Bb) why, why (F) wouldn’t (Bb) you?
