   B
If I could hold on to just one thought
     F#m
For long enough to know
  B
Why my mind is moving so fast
        F#m
And the conversation is slow
 A
Burn off all the fog
                                 E
And let the sun through to the snow
 B
Let me see your face again
   A              E
Before I have to go

I have seen you in the movies
And in those magazines at night
I saw you on the barstool
When you held that glass so tight
And I saw you in my nightmares
But I'll see you in my dreams
And I might live a thousand years
Before I know what that means

Once there was a friend of mine
Who died a thousand deaths
His life was filled with parasites
And countless idle threats
He trusted in a woman
And on her he made his bets
Once there was a friend of mine
Who died a thousand deaths
