[Intro]
Em Am Em
[Verse 1]
Em Am Em
I lost you a while ago, but still I don't know why
Em Am Em C
I can't say your name, without a crow flying by
C Bm E
Got to watch my back, now that you've turned me around
Am Em
Got me walking backwards, into my home-town
[Chorus]
G C G C
Throw me a rope, on the rolling tide
Am C/B C Am C/B C
What did you want me to be, you said it's him or me
Am C/B C G D C
The way you made it, that's the way it will be
[Verse 2]
Em Am Em
It was seven years on the Burma shore, with gatling guns and pain
Em Am Em C
Working the lowlands door-to-door, like a latter day saint
C Bm E
Then you turn me out, at the top of the stairs
Am Em
You took all the glory, that you just couldn't share
[Chorus]
G C G C
Throw me a rope, on the rolling tide
Am C/B C Am C/B C
What did you want me to be, you said it's him or me
Am C/B C G D C
The way you made it, that's the way it will be
[Break]
Em Am Em
[Verse 2]
Em Am Em
I've never been so disabused, I've never been so mad
Em Am Em C
I've never been served anything, that tasted so bad
C Bm E
You might need a friend, any day now, any day
Am Em
Oh my brother be careful, you are drifting away
[Chorus]
G C G C
Throw me a rope, on the rolling tide
Am C/B C Am C/B C
What did you want me to be, you said it's him or me
Am C/B C G D C
The way you made it, that's the way it will be
Am C/B C Em Am Em
The way you made it, that's the way it will be
