[Intro]
---------------------
G#

[Verse 1]
---------------------
G#
Mary, this station is playing every sad song
    Fm
I remember like we were alive
        G#
Yeah, I heard and sung them all from inside of these walls
     Fm
In a prison cell, where we spent those nights
         G#
And they burnt up the diner where I always used to find her
        Fm
Licking young boys' blood from her claws
      G#
And I learned about the blues from this kitten that I knew
             Fm
Her hair was raven and her heart was like a tomb

[Pre-Chorus (1)]
---------------------
C#maj7                  D#
      My heart's like a wound

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
          Fm         C#maj7           G#             D#add11
And I saw taillights last  night in a dream about my first wife
Fm        C#maj7           G#                D#
Everybody leaves and I'd expect as much from you
      Fm         C#maj7           G#             D#add11
I saw taillights last  night in a dream about my old   life
Fm        C#maj7     G#   D#add11        G#
Everybody leaves, so why, why   wouldn't you?

[Verse 2]
---------------------
        G#
Mary, I worried and stalled every night of my life
       Fm
Better safe than making the party
      G#
And I never had a good time, I sat by my bedside
     Fm
With papers and poetry about Estella

[Pre-Chorus (2)]
---------------------
C#maj7                D#
      With great expectations
           C#maj7        D#
We had the greatest expectations

[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
          Fm         C#maj7           G#             D#add11
And I saw taillights last  night in a dream about my first wife
Fm        C#maj7           G#                D#add11
Everybody leaves and I'd expect as much from you   
      Fm         C#maj7           G#             D#add11
I saw taillights last  night in a dream about my old   life
Fm        C#maj7     G#   D#           Fm  C#
Everybody leaves, so why, why wouldn't you?

[Interlude]
---------------------
G# D#          Fm                 C#
    It's funny how the night moves
G# D#                 Fm  C#
   Humming a song from  1962
G# D#Fm C# G# D#       C#     D#       C#     D#
               We were always waiting, always waiting

[Bridge]
---------------------
        C#     D#                       Fm
We were always waiting for something to happen

[Chorus (3)]
---------------------
D#     Fm         C#maj7           G#             D#add11
 I saw taillights last  night in a dream about my first wife
Fm        C#maj7           G#                D#add11
Everybody leaves and I'd expect as much from you   
      Fm         C#maj7           G#             D#add11
I saw taillights last  night in a dream about my old   life
Fm        C#maj7     G#   D#           G#
Everybody leaves, so why, why wouldn't you?
