Intro- G G Sometimes when i'm singing you draw pictures on the walls Em And I wonder then if how i feel makes sense to you at all C I show tunes to you I've written so you cover them in paint D They're better now, grey and smudged and dirty like your face G I swung you to the city and you wished that it was new Em so you could write an art-house film and i could make my debut C All I am asking of you now is just to take me back in time D to the nights above the city When you asked if you were mine G I'll drive with you all morning down the streets and avenues Em And then we'll sit among the gravestones and I'll try to break the news C that I am happier with you than I will ever be again D I'll give up before I'm done and we can dance in the rain G I swung you to the city and you wished that it was new Em so you could write an art-house film and i could make my debut C All I am asking of you now is just to take me back in time D to the nights above the city When you swore that you were mine G I would give everything I have to tell you everything I want Em But there's too much I have to tell you and too much that I forgot C I wonder now if all this time with you will linger in my mind D beyond the days we spend so vacantly When this is left behind G I won't regret the taste of you or how your head feels on my chest C I'll never spill a single secret or a sin that you confessed Em And I won't cry when this is over When it's time to say goodbye D No I won't cry I won't cry G I swung you to the city and you wished that it was new Em so you could write an art-house film and i could make my debut [no chord] All I am asking of you now is just to take me back in time to the nights above the city When you swore that you were mine
