Verse
G
Count the steps around the park
A7
Consider drinking in the yard
C G
Hang the words of a perfect stranger in the hallways of my heart
G
'Cause all the blessings are somebody else's
A7
They're flowers in my neighbor's pot
C
I'm torn exactly into two pieces
D
One who wants you and one who's gone dark
[Chorus]
G
But I'm still in sight
C
Your fast machine
Em C
Always holding your love supreme
G
Our 45's
C
Spinning out of time
Em D Em D C
But honey, I'm still on your side
[Verse 2]
G
Are my hopes finally gonna waste me
A7
D#m I the worst compass I could know
C
So I took the bus across the bridge
G
Sold my bedroom from my home
G
Maybe it's the East Coast in the music
A7
Or the endless road from the past
C
But while you're praying at the 90s
D
They're carving up anything that lasts
[Chorus]
G
But I'm still in sight
C
Your fast machine
Em C
Always holding your love supreme
G
Our 45's
C
Spinning out of time
Em D Em D C
But honey, I'm still on your side
[Bridge]

D G C D
Now you're just a stranger that I know best
D G C D
Now you're just a stranger that I know best
D G C D
Now I'm just a stranger that you know best
[Verse 3]
G
There ain't no book that I can live by
A7
Just these naggings I can't shake
C
D# hum coming from the basement
G
D# little crying out for crying out's sake
G
'Cause if I can learn to love your shadow
A7
When your shadow hits the light
C
And there ain't no trace of what we've been through
D
Then I'll shout it till the day that I die
[Chorus]
G
I am still in sight
C
Your fast machine
Em C
Always holding your love supreme
G
Our 45's
C
Spinning out of time
Em D Em D C
But honey, I'm still on your side
[Outro]
G D C
I'm still on your side
