Bb Bb/A Gm7 Fadd11
Sonny signed his name up for tomorrow
Eb
And laughed with all of his friends
Eb Dm* Cm F D
At all the little men who borrow tunes
F
They heard just yesterday
Bb Bb/A Gm7 Fadd11
Davey got us down but we got away
Eb
And drank to all the days
Eb Dm* Cm F
That we just whiled away
D F
Just playing Robin Hood a little out of phase
Chorus:
Bb
And then the nightmares come
Eb
And you get blown away
(when your friends go away, on last chorus)
And up in your room your walls are cold
You find your head is holding out
Bb
For the welcome of a better day
Bb
And then the nightmares come
Eb
And you get blown away
And up in your room
Your walls are getting colder
Like you’re getting on a roller coaster
Bb
You can’t find the breaks
Bb Bb/A Gm7 Fadd11
Stevie burned the sky when he flew away
Eb
And left us things to say
Eb Dm* Cm F
When all the world was falling down
D F
Around our shoulders; cold and grey
Bb Bb/A Gm7 Fadd11
Harry carried on in his usual way
Eb
And Minnie went inside
Eb Dm* Cm F
And came out once and we both cried
D F
And Minnie blew my head away
(Repeat Chorus)
Ab
When you’re giving everything away
Cm
Everybody lets you pray
F
You’re saving up for a better day
Eb
Seeing things in a better way
Ab
When you know you’ve got to live
Cm
There’s nothing you won’t give
F
To hear the phone and not let it ring
Bb Bb/A Gm7 F+11 Eb
Every mon-day mo — or — ning
Eb Dm* Cm F D/F# F
Bb Bb/A Gm7 Fadd11
Shughie found love and he almost cried
Eb
We laughed and wondered why
Eb Dm* Cm F
We loved the sky and found the space
D F
And gazed out over Stevie’s plane
(Repeat Chorus)
Bb Bb/A Gm7 Fadd11 Eb
(end) F Bb
