[G]This morning is Monday Where are you now?
Teasin' my memory Teaching me how to [Dm]lay low when I don't w[C]ant to
[G]Your love is elusive this I know now It's making me crazy Leaving me out
In the o[Dm]pen When I don't w[C]ant to
[G]I don't know why you do that to me (really low, soft volumn) [C] go [G]to lead
[G]The moments of pleasures Never do last
[Dm]Are gone like a suitc[C]ase [C7]full of your past Long gone, and in a hurry
CHORUS:
[Em]Baby, I can't go through this [G]again
I don't need to [Em]go down More then I've already b[G]een
Just like a w[Em]ild fire You're running all over t[G]own
As much as you b[Em]urn me, baby I should be ashes by n[G]ow
[G]The second street beggars alone in they life
Drunk on a sidewalk to hide from the night
[Dm]Like I am They're just like [C]I am
chorus
Just like a w[Em]ild fire You're running all over to[G]wn
As much as you b[Em]urn me, baby I should be ashes by [G]now
Ending : Aaaaaahh Aaaaaahh Should be ashes by now
