Strum
D-DU-UDU
Now,  I think i know  why.
You  sounded so strange  on the telephone.
But  it's hard, when you discover.
What  keeps you going, keeps  you all alone.
A  dream so near, I thought the smoke  might never clear.
And  hide it all behind, endless  cigarettes  and  tears.
Somebody  waits for the time  I know, it never comes.
You  get yourself  so high,and  you come down  feeling  blue.
One  day you  wake up and realize  you've had enough.
A  thousand shattered  moments waiting  just to happen.
To  you, to  you,  to you
 Keyboard organ sound )
Wait,  until you're stronger.
No  sense starting when you're down  so long.
Well  it takes, my heart, a little  longer.
See  the point of finally letting  go.
You  lose you're touch, out there standing  in the rain.
When  it's all too much, you feel like  slippin'  down again.
 END
