G G/E G G/D C Em D 2x

Verse 1

G It’s a tale of old shoes C G And soles of your feet Em C I've got blisters from running D On beaches and streets G I've been knocked down and out C G I've got eyes black and blue Em C 'cause I'm hit in the face D When I'm talking to you

Chorus

C G G/D Oh, don't lie down D As soon as I sleep C G You'll be leaving this town C G G/D Oh, don't lie down Em D 'Cause I'm lost and I'm young C G Got my mind in the clouds Em D And if I fall asleep C G You'll be leaving this town G G/E G G/D C Em D

Verse 2

G It's a tale of tied hands C G And holiday scenes Em C I've got romance in places D That I've never been G But I've said a hundred times C G That I'm all you need Em C But you swear you're just stubborn D And I'm just naïve

Chorus

Verse 3

G It’s a tale of old shoes C G And soles of your feet Em C I've got blisters from running D On beaches and streets G In the absence of sound C G Will you sing back to me? Em C Or just whisper the thoughts D And tell me to dream?

Chorus

C G G/D Just don't lie down D As soon as I sleep C G You'll be leaving this town C G G/D Oh, don't lie down Em D 'Cause I'm lost and I'm young C G Got my mind in the clouds Em D And if I fall asleep C G You'll be leaving this town Em D Oh I’m lost, I’m young C G I’ve got my mind in the clouds D And if I fall asleep C G You’ll be leaving this town D Oh, if I fall asleep C G You’ll be leaving this town
