C
I had a plan 
         Am       Em          F
That was built on thinking to long 
C
Canadian winters 
   Am             Em
At home with your sisters 
    F                     C
the romance was hard to ignore 
         F
You were beautiful
               C       Am   Em   F
I was happy to fall
            C       Am   Em   F
So happy to fall

    C
I remember you searching 
  Am               Em 
I thought you were searching 
F                          C
that´s how I picked up the phone 
F                 Em          
Happy to hear you remembered the view 
   Am                    F
So glad to assume it was fate 
                             C
I thought at the time it was clear
  F                          C       Em  F
I thought at the time it was clear

C  Em  F
C  Em  F
C  Em  F  F

     C
So I stood at the station 
       Am         Em        F
With a plan and a pocket of poems 
  C       
Heroically tragic 
Am          Em           F
Bearded and blind with obsession 
      C
I´m a car without hope 
    Am           Em          F
Too close to the ditch to go far 
  C   
I showed you my field 
       Am         Em
I said this is my field
        F
But you weren´t impressed 

C  Em  F
                    C      Em   F
You said why are we here
                 C       Em   F
Your motives are clear 
                    C
In this room with a view 
    Em         F
and so much of you
               C      F
is so far from here 
                 C      F
it's so far from here
                 C      F
it's so far from here
                 
it's so far from here

Instrumental interlude:
C  Am  Em  F    X8
C  Am  Em  F  F
C  Am  Em  F

      C       Am
Oh my heart
   Em         F
It just fell apart 
      C              
And i wished I could show you 
    Am          Em
The same view 
   F                     C
of you by the window and me
Em      F
feeling fine 
    C       Em      F
And me just feeling fine 
     C       Em      F
Yeah me just feeling fine

My life in art 

[D]Wendy gets high for the 2nd show 
[G]I watch her dance and I watch her flow 
for a [D]dollar [G] 
She [D]dreams of Vegas and the desert strips 
[G]Where she can dance and she can make a lot of [D]money [G] 
She [D]left her home in a pickup truck 
[G]Left her husband when he beat her up 
And now she[D] works all night [G] 

But the [D]Kansas wind won´t freeze her heart 
No the [G]train just rolls right off her back 
She´s gonna [D]be alright [G] 

[Bm]Just tell me about the boule[G]vards 
[Bm]Tell me about your life in [D]art 
[Bm]Yeah tell my about the boule[D]vards 
[Bm]cos Europe always seemed so [N.c]far 

You[D] look so young and you talk so old 
[G]Lighten up babe i might just take you 
home if you´re [D] lucky [G] 
and those [D]bums on the corner will take your time 
Sell you [G]their stories for a nickel 
and a dime 
you could [D]learn something [G] 
and she [D]stares so hard at those neonlights 
I [G]swear to God she´s gonna bust them up 
She´s gonna [D]bust them up [G] 

[Bm]Just tell me about the boule[G]vards 
[Bm]Tell me about your life in [D]art 
[Bm]Yeah tell my about the boule[D]vards 
[Bm]cos Europe always seemed so [N.c]far 

[D]You read som ebooks and thay 
broke your heart 
But [G]you don´t know 
one thing about life 
You´re just a [D]pretty boy [G] 

She [D]laughs as she lights 
a ciggarette 
[G]Throws her arms around my neck 
She says I´ll [D]kill you 
[G]I´ll kill you just for [D]trying [G] 
Cos you don´t even have the [Bm]money 
you don´t have the [G] money 
[Bm]Just buy me a drink and we´ll [G]call 
it quits 
[Bm]Tell me all about your [G]pretty boy fa[D]ce [G][D] etc 
{Note: Just before the change from D to G you could play a 
Dsus (just lift your finger from the lowest string) and the 
song will sound great. }

You were [C]caught out on your own 
[Am]Still [G]waiting for the [F]wistle to blow [G]

Is the [Em]bond now [F]broken 
Does nothing [G]remain
[Em]Shoulder to [F]shoulder
[Em]Like two stones in a [F]bag
Did you [Em]rub one a[F]nother
Until there was [G]nothin yeah
Nothing but dust

[Am]And still you talk [C]soft
[F]So desperate and [C]kind
[F]So pure and so [C]pointless
[Am]So helpless and [C]blind
[F]And is there no [C]anger
[F]Just pills for the [C]pain
[Am]My friend you´ve been [C]wasted
[F]And you will be [C]again

[Em]And you wait for a [F]whirlwind
[Em]To unwind your [F]soul
And you [Em]cry like a [F]baby
You feel so a[G]lone
[Em]She broke you so [F]softly
[Em]You can´t see the [F]blame
[Em]Like a dog with a [F]bone
You refuse to let [G]go [F][Em][Dm]

Prayer for the paranoid 

[E]I´ll send you a [B]letter 
From the [A]frontline
[E]Please send app[B]lause
And some [A]good advice
[E]You were born with a [B]compass
A map on your [A]table
[E]Tell me how did you [B]find out
Your bearings were [A]wrong

Just [E]pray [B]for [A]us 
pray for [E]sunshine [B]
These [E]days [B]are [A]cold
and I´m missing [E]you [B]
The [A]city is no place to [E]lose
Ah, But [A]I never thought
I could [E]choose
It was [A]plain from the start
I was [B]playing for time

I need [E]laughter and love
[B]some special drug
I need [A]ciggarettes

There´s [E]killers behind us
[B]Devils ahead
Send pro[A]tection
I will [E]drown in this city
I will [B]drown in this trench
Built [A]for us
And the [E]only thing left
Yeah the [B]only thing left
Is the [A]running

And these [E]clouds keep on rolling
and [B]I , I don´t know [A]why
Take this [E]guitar out of my [B]hands
I sur[A]render
This [E]town don´t need drunkards
Or [B]singers of bad poe[A]try
Thay need [E]dancing and drugs and [B]laughter
and we don´t have [A]them

Just [E]pray [B]for [A]us 
pray for [E]sunshine [B]
These [E]days [B]are [A]cold
and I´m missing [E]you [B]
This [A]letter was meant for your [E]eyes
Des[A]troy it and then 
Just go [B]hide

You´re the [A]only thing left
That makes any sense
Please don´t [B]blow it

You [Am]always see it [Em]coming, 
But you [F]never ever [C]fight, 
You [F]don't know how to fight. 

There's a [C]cold wind blowing, 
[Em]On a silvery morning, 
And the [F]air feels fine upon your[C] face. 
And you walk cause your lonely, 
And you [Em]wish you had a job, 
Someone [F]else who understood the [C]little things. 

[Am]Cause sometimes you [Em]feel so fine, yeah 
And [F]sometimes you [C]fall, 
To[Am]morrow's always [Em]finds you, 
[F]Staring at the [C]wall. 
I [Am]thought you had the [Em]answer, 
For [F]always being [C]right. 
You [Am]always see it [Em]coming, 
But you [F]never ever [C]fight, 
No, you [F]don't know how to fight. 

And you [C]turn on the T.V. 
And you [Em]reach for the phone, 
Because [F]someone read the news to you all [C]wrong. 
And you say that you've discovered, 
A [Em]world that won't recover, 
And [F]sometimes it's so hard to dis[C]agree. 
To[Am]morrow's always [Em]finds you, 
[F]Staring at the [C]wall. 
You[Am] thought you had the [Em]answer, 
For [F]always being [C]right. 
You [Am]always see it [Em]coming,
