Verse
D
Count the steps around the park
E7
Consider drinking in the yard
G D
Hang the words of a perfect stranger in the hallways of my heart
D
'Cause all the blessings are somebody else's
E7
They're flowers in my neighbor's pot
G
I'm torn exactly into two pieces
A
One who wants you and one who's gone dark
[Chorus]
D
But I'm still in sight
G
Your fast machine
Bm G
Always holding your love supreme
D
Our 45's
G
Spinning out of time
Bm A Bm A G
But honey, I'm still on your side
[Verse 2]
D
Are my hopes finally gonna waste me
E7
A#m I the worst compass I could know
G
So I took the bus across the bridge
D
Sold my bedroom from my home
D
Maybe it's the East Coast in the music
E7
Or the endless road from the past
G
But while you're praying at the 90s
A
They're carving up anything that lasts
[Chorus]
D
But I'm still in sight
G
Your fast machine
Bm G
Always holding your love supreme
D
Our 45's
G
Spinning out of time
Bm A Bm A G
But honey, I'm still on your side
[Bridge]
D
A D G A
Now you're just a stranger that I know best
A D G A
Now you're just a stranger that I know best
A D G A
Now I'm just a stranger that you know best
[Verse 3]
D
There ain't no book that I can live by
E7
Just these naggings I can't shake
G
A# hum coming from the basement
D
A# little crying out for crying out's sake
D
'Cause if I can learn to love your shadow
E7
When your shadow hits the light
G
And there ain't no trace of what we've been through
A
Then I'll shout it till the day that I die
[Chorus]
D
I am still in sight
G
Your fast machine
Bm G
Always holding your love supreme
D
Our 45's
G
Spinning out of time
Bm A Bm A G
But honey, I'm still on your side
[Outro]
D A G
I'm still on your side
