Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Verse 1:
     C#
Count the steps around the park
     C7
Consider drinking in the yard
     F#                 C#
Hang the words of a perfect stranger in the hallways of my heart
        C#
'Cause all the blessings are somebody else's
    D#
They're flowers in my neighbor's pot
  F#
I'm torn exactly into two pieces
       G#
One who wants you and one who's gone dark

Chorus:
         C#
But I'm still in sight
       F#
Your fast machine
    A#m         F#
Always holding your love supreme
  C#
Our 45's
        F#
Spinning out of time
      A#m    G# A#m G# F#
But honey, I'm still on your side


Verse 2:
    C#
Are my hopes finally gonna waste me
     C7
Am I the worst compass I could know
       F#
So I took the bus across the bridge
    C#
Sold my bedroom from my home
        C#
Maybe it's the East Coast in the music
    D#
Or the endless road from the past
         F#
But while you're praying at the 90s
        G#
They're carving up anything that lasts


Chorus:
         C#
But I'm still in sight
       F#
Your fast machine
    A#m          F#
Always holding your love supreme
  C#
Our 45's
        F#
Spinning out of time
      A#m    G# A#m G# F#
But honey, I'm still on your side


Bridge:
C#
G#                    C# F# G#
Now you're just a stranger that I know best
G#                    C# F# G#
Now you're just a stranger that I know best
G#                   C# F# G#
Now I'm just a stranger that you know best


Verse 3:
        C#
There ain't no book that I can live by
      C7
Just these naggings I can't shake
 F#
A hum coming from the basement
     C#
A little crying out for crying out's sake
     C#
'Cause if I can learn to love your shadow
     D#
When your shadow hits the light
          F#
And there ain't no trace of what we've been through
     G#
Then I'll shout it till the day that I die


Chorus:
        C#
I am still in sight
       F#
Your fast machine
    A#m          F#
Always holding your love supreme
   C#
Our 45's
         F#
Spinning out of time
      A#m    G# A#m G# F#
But honey, I'm still on your side


Outro:
C#    G#   F#
I'm still on your side
