Capo 3:
Intro:G/B C D/F# G/B C G D/F#
Verse:
G/B C D/F#
Well I've been huddled up alone,
G/B
By the fire even though,
C G D/F#
I'm not exactly feeling co---ld,
G/B C D/F#
And I've been bundled up for days,
G/B
Too confused to be amazed,
C G D/F# C G D/F#
At all the icy water in my veins,
Refrain:
C G D/F#
Why do I feel so alone?
Verse:
G/B C D/F#
Yeah I've been moving in and out,
G/B
Of this old split-level house,
C G/B D/F#
And I'd just as soon burn the whole place down,
G/B C D/F#
'Cause I quit working lumberyards,
Am7
To build a mansion out of cards,
C G D/F# C G D/F#
But I feel thin behind these paper walls,
Refrain:
C G D/F#
Why do I feel so alone?
Chorus:
G D/F# Am7 C
'Cause the angriest bark is always worse than the bite,
G D/F# Am7 C
Like the ache in my chest that my heart didn't invite,
G D/F# Am7 C
But if the prettiest romance isn't perfectly right,
Am7 G/B C D/F# G Am7 G/B C G Am7 C D/F# (twice)
That makes every love lost just a holiday every night,
Verse:
G C D/F#
Well I've been painting through the night,
G/B
In the basement out of sight,
C G D/f#
Brushing paper tigers black and white,
G/B C D/F#
'Cause come tomorrow afternoon,
Am7
I'll fill a helium balloon,
C G D/F# C G D/F#
And set them free into the baby blue sky,
Refrain:
C Em D/F#
So they won't have to be alone,
Chorus:
G D/F# Am7 C
'Cause the angriest bark is always worse than the bite,
G D/F# F C
Like the ache in my chest that my heart didn't invite,
G D/F# Am7 C
But if the prettiest romance isn't perfectly right,
Am7 G/B C D/F#
That makes every love lost just a holiday every night,
Bridge:
F C G D/F#
But when I close these heavy lids after dark,
F C
Each sweet dream is a target,
D/F# Em C D/F#
And all my shots are so consistently wide of the mark,
Coda:
G D/F# Am7 C
'Cause the angriest bark is always worse than the bite,
G D/F# F C
Like the ache in my chest that my heart didn't invite,
G D/F# Am7 C
But if the prettiest romance isn't perfectly right,
Am7 G/B C D/F# Am7 G/B
That makes every love lost just a holiday every night,
C D/F#
Just a holiday every night,
C D/F#
Just a holiday every night,
C D/F# G Am7 G/B C G Am7 C D/F# (twice)
Just a holiday every night,
Outro:
G/B C D/F#
Well I've been huddled up alone,
G/B
By the fire even though,
C G D/F#
I'm not exactly feeling co--ld,
G/B C D/F#
But how my heartache hit the trail,
G/B
When a paper tiger tail,
C G D/F#
Fluttered down, I guess I'll never know,
