[Verse 1]
[A]                                 [E]
Well the rain outside is pouring down like bombs on my parade  
[Bm]
And you're not here to calm my nerves  
        [E]
And I'm frantic and afraid  
[A]                                    [E]
Oh the madness in the air so thick, you can cut it with a knife  
[Bm]                            [D5]     [C#5]         [D5] [C#5]
And the loneliness is all I've got to get me through the night  

[Verse 2]
[D]                           [E]
You left me years ago, just sitting in this hole  
[A]                              [F#]
It feels like yesterday cause you won't let me go  
[D]                               [E]
It's like a thorn that keeps on digging in my side  
[A]                          [F#]
And to be honest it's like both of us have died  

[Verse 3]
[D]                             [E]
Everything about myself just makes me wanna scream  
[A]         [A/G#]  [G]               [F#]
Why can't every day be like I'm living in a dream?  
    [D]           [E]     [A]            [F#]                [Bm]
And all I wanna do is have another chance to fall in love again  
[E]
Before it's over  

[Verse 4]
[A]                                 [E]
The taste of love and gasoline, it still permeates the room  
[Bm]
And every sacred vow that we both made  
        [E]
Well it fades like your perfume  
[A]                                    [E]
Oh, I serenade you every night even though I know you're gone  
[Bm]                            [D5]     [C#5]         [D5] [C#5]
And dance naked in the pale moonlight to our favorite song  

[Verse 5]
[D]                           [E]
You left me years ago, just sitting in this hole  
[A]                              [F#]
It feels like yesterday cause you won't let me go  
[D]                               [E]
It's like a thorn that keeps on digging in my side  
[A]                          [F#]
And to be honest it's like both of us have died  

[Verse 6]
[D]                             [E]
Everything about myself just makes me wanna scream  
[A]         [A/G#]  [G]               [F#]
Why can't every day be like I'm living in a dream?  
    [D]           [E]     [A]            [F#]                [Bm]
And all I wanna do is have another chance to fall in love again  
[E]
Before it's over
