Tom Verlaine Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[C][Em][B][E][F#sus4][B][Abm][E][F#]
[D]

[Verse 1]
Looking [D]back I should have known
All the nights that I [G]spent in outer [D]space
If in fact I had said no,
what becomes of [G]this? It's hard [D]to say[Em]
I'll feel better with the [G]breeze
[D]on [F#m]my back[Em]
And I'll sleep better,
know[G]ing it's in the past
[D]

[Verse 2]
Looking back I should have known
All the nights that I [G]spent
in outer [D]space
Cigarettes and old regrets piled in a stack
out in the [G]back of my brain
[D]

[Verse 3]
When you walk [G]away [D]it
better be for [Em]good[D]
I put my money on a horse who won't
be steered on [G]any course or [D]lane
And if I [A]ever [Asus4]see a dime,
[G]you'd take that mon[Em]ey to [A]divid[G]e and separate
[D]

[Verse 4]
When you walk away,
[G]it [D]better be for good[G][D][Em]
I know you'll [G]be there in the [D]rain
[G]Glowing like the [Em]first night,
[G]telling me [Asus4]you've ch[A]ang[Em]ed
I know you'll [G]be there in [D]the rain
[G]Glowing like the [Em]first night [G]trying
to [F#sus4]ex plain th[F#]at
That [G]when you walk [D]away

[Verse 5]
[G]
[D]It's gonna be for goo[G]d
[D]You were my Tom Verlaine
[G]Just [D]sit[G] ti[D]ng[G][D][G][D][G]
[D]on [G]the[D] hood

[Outro 1]
