Lyrics

So long ago, I don't (D)remember when,

That's (F#7)when they say I lost my only (Bm)friend.

(D)Well, they (G)said she died easy of a (D)broken heart disease,

as I (F#7)listened through the cemetery (Bm)trees.

(D)greed. And I seen the (G)sun coming up at the funeral at dawn,

say the (F#7)long is broken arm of human (Bm)law.

(D)Now it (G)always seemed she's such a waste,

she (D)always had a pretty face.

I (F#7)wondered why she hung around this (Bm)place.

(F#7)Hey! Come on, try a little,

(D)nothing is forever.

(Em7)There's got to be something (A)better than in the middle.

(G)But me and Cinderella, (D)we put it all together.

(Em7)We can drive it home.

(Asus)With one (G)headlight.

(D)She said it's (G)cold, it feels like (D)Independence Day,

and I (F#7)can't break away from this (Bm)parade.

(D)But there's (G)got to be an opening (D)somewhere here in front of me,

(F#7)through this maze of ugliness and

(D)Well, this place is (G)cold, it feels just like a (D)beatup truck,

I turn the (F#7)engine but the engine doesn't (Bm)turn.

(D)Well, it smells of (G)cheap wine and cigarettes,

this (D)place is always such a mess.

(F#7)Sometimes I think I'd like to watch it (Bm)burn.

(D)I was (G)alone and I feel just like somey else.

Man, I ain't (F#7)changed, but I know I ain't the (Bm)same.

(D)But (G)somewhere here in between these (D)seedy walls of dying dreams I (F#7)think her death,

it must be killing (Bm)me.

(F#7)Hey, hey, hey!

Come on, try a little,

(D)nothing is forever.

(Em7)There's got to be something (A)better than in the middle.

(G)But me and Cinderella, (D)we put it all together.

(Em7)We can drive it home

(A)with one head (G)light.

Come on, try a little,

(D)nothing is forever.

(Em7)There's got to be something (A)better than in the middle.

(G)But me and Cinderella, (D)we put it all together.

(Em7)We can drive it home
