Intro

Em D Em D

Verse 1

Em D Why should I live in history? Condemned to a life of coulda been. Em D I quit takin' dope, I quit drinking whisky;I quit takin' chances. Em D Em D

Verse 2

Em D I gave her the ring my mother gave me; She said Meet at the station 4.30. Em D So I sit here waiting patiently; Why should I live in history?

Chorus

Am G D When the world shines up dirt and calls it coal, Am G D They're selling the light at the church at the end of the road, C Am When angels' wings run out of veins, Looks like I'm blindsided once again. Em D Em D

Verse 3

Em D Why should I live in history? Give away my gun and join the scene, Em D Resurrection Mary's gonna set me free; Now, I'm a believer. Em D But this mockingbird is mocking me; She's four hours late and I'm all at sea, Em D One little taste is all it takes, to get me back to history.

Chorus

Bridge

Em Em Em D Am If I gave a dam what you thought; I'd give you the bottle and ask Em D Am Now the streets are dead and I'm ashamed; Think I'll go call upon my past Em D Am I'm all out of hope, I'm all out of you; There's nothing left - there's nothing new, Em D Am And your judgement day is long past due; Now what am I supposed to do?

Verse 4

Em D Why should I live in history? Underneath this tin foil moon, Em D I just got tired waiting round; For you to change your tune, Em D It's my desire for your company; If only time would let me be, F G And stop the world from stopping me; Why should I live in history?

Chorus
