Em
you’re looking for a way out
                Bm A Em
i can feel it
Em
come on , show me where it hurts
                             Bm A Em
maybe i can heal it

Em
your feelings are your own
                                                         Bm A Em
now you keep ’em under lock and key
Em
you got me drivin’ through the streets
                                           Bm A Em
for an answer to the mystery

       G                D                             A
the world’s still weak on charleston avenue
      G               D                       A
outside that vacant starlight motel i see you
    G                         D
laughing with your girlfriends
           A                                  D      A           Em
not a care in the world , not a burden on your mind

Em
it was a matter of time

Em
there’s a panic in this house
                                      Bm A Em
and it’s bound to surface
Em
just walkin’ through the front door
                             Bm A Em
makes me nervous

Em
it’s creepin’ up the floorboards ,
                                                 Bm A Em
got me wondering where i stand
Em
i cannot put out the fire ,
                                                     Bm A Em
i got a book of matches in my hand

G             D              A
when we first met , headstrong and filled with doubt
G                      D                    A
made just enough hustling tables that summer to take you out
     G                D             A                 D
i was fallin’ back on forever when you told me about your heart
           A        Em
you laid it on the line

G                 D
laughing with your girlfriends
       A                      D     A G
not a care in the world , not a burden on your mind

( you laid it on the line )

G              A           D A G
it was just a matter , it was a matter of time

    G               A
we found ourselves a place
       D          G
we belong in it forever
          D            A
ain’t that what it’s all about?
          G            A
make the promise and keep it
     D               G
come hell or high water
        D A    G
we’d figure it out

           G            A
it was the night , it was the moon
            D               G
it was the green grass in the garden
      G            A
the victory and the sin

G                   A
i know you’re weary , look at me
D             G
flailin’ in the corner
            G
here’s the towel
A              G
go on , throw it in

G        D        G
it was a matter of time
G                    D              A
can’t you see that it’s tearing me up inside?
G                       A
look what’s laying at our feet
           G                  A
that’s the wreckage of broken dreams
      D             A
and burned out
G             A      G
and it’s here on our street
