Intro:
D, C, Bm, C - 3 times through the cycle
Verse 1:
Well these [D]late night conver[C]sations
Leave a [Bm]strange taste like French ciga[C]rettes
And these [D]coloured drinks that you keep on [C]throwing at me
Just keep on re[Bm]minding me that I came to [C]forget
Break:
D, C, Bm, C - 2 times through the cycle
Verse 2:
So now [D]every night you insist on [C]reminding me
Of my lost possi[Bm]bilities and the stains on the [C]wall
But I don't [D]mean to complain but it [C]hurts just the same
And now [Bm]both of us know the leaves will fall on [C]their own
Chorus 1:
Just throw me a [G]line that's all that I ask
Well it's sink or swim and I'm going fast
I need love, and it's you
And I feel like William Holden floating in a pool
Break
G for four bars
D, C, Bm, C - twice
Verse 3:
Yeah you [D]tell me life is [C]for living
It's best in the [Bm]giving but it's so hard to be [C]free
Still I [D]do my best but you re[C]fuse my gift
And now [Bm]all that we share is a collection of [C]tears
Solo:
D, C, Bm, C - 8 times through the cycle
Chorus:
Just throw me a [G]line that's all that I ask
Well it's sink or swim and I'm going fast
I need love, and it's you
And I feel like William Holden floating in a pool
End:
G for four bars
D, C, Bm, C - repeat until fade out
