G	 D		     E7		 C(add9)

Happy, smilin', cryin' upwards to my past,

G	 	  D		        E7		      C(add9)

I guess those stormy gray skies simply couldn't last.

G	    D		    E7		    C(add9)

And now I find myself a-tugging at your dress.

G	     D		       E7		    C(add9)

The funnel holding me down, oh see the cloud, it's never gonna pass.



Break: G-D-E7-C(add9) (2x)

(bass in here, see my bass tab for the cool riff)



G5	    D5		    E5		C5

Somewhere there's a place a soul can never go,

G5	    D5		 E5			C5

Gray-like stormy skies I hoped you didn't know.

G5	  D5			  E5			 C5

All our postcards full of things I won't forget.

G	       D		       E7		       C(add9)

And now it's coming down, that laughing clown is all I ever get.



G	  D		  E7			  C(add9)

Another second time around, I've been runnin' from ya

G	  D		    E7	C(add9)

Another second time around.

G	  D			 E7			C(add9)

Another second, one more second time, I waited for ya,

G	  D		    E7	C(add9)

Another second time around.



D5	   C5

Couldn't help myself,

  D5			C5		   D5

I felt like everything was gonna pass.

 		C5

It was an awkward time,

  D5				C5

I hoped it wouldn't, hoped it couldn't last.



(Solo like only Johnny Rzeznik does...)



G5	D5		 E5		    C5

And I didn't know exactly what to say,

G5	    D5		    E5	   D5

About the things you saw me do my evil way.

(*** add riff at bottom **)

G5	     D5		 E5			C5

And I know you're lyin', cryin' in your bed.

G	       D		    E7		 C(add9)

Well I'm all tired out, so wired out, it's ringing in my head.



G	  D		  E7			  C(add9)

Another second time around, I've been runnin' from ya

G	  D		    E7	C(add9)

Another second time around.

G	  D			 E7			C(add9)

Another second, one more second time, I waited for ya,

G	  D		    E7	C(add9)

Another second time around.

G	  D		    E7	C(add9)

Another second time around.

G	  D		    E7	C(add9)

Another second time around.

End on G
