         Am             Em
We were dancin' in the middle
          Am
We could hardly hold our heads up
    G                        C
I think we had too much to drink
    B7                           Am
I remember wondering what they'd think
            B7          Em
Da, da, da, da, da, da, da

We were thinkin' 'bout the future
We were trying not to laugh
Then you made me cry instead
I remember wishing I was dead
Da, da, da, da, da, da, da

Chorus:
Em D C            Em                     F
       No fortune pays for wounds like these
G C                G                F
    It's been too long a time now please
              Em                     D
Just say you will, we can call it a day
                             Am
It's not as though we ain't sinned
                          D
It's just a game we all play
                      Am  Em  Bm  Am
There was nothing to win

Well I'm coming home lady
I'm your homecoming man
Trying hard to stand the rain
Gettin' back on my feet again
Da, da, da, da, da, da, da
