Am Em
There´s a room where she kept all her dolls
G
They covered the floor and the walls
Dm
And she talked to them there
Am Em
By the pool she would always attract
G
All the guys who were out on their backs
Dm
With her towel rapped
F
Now did she know
Am
That she caught all the eyes in town
Em F
Watching her walking around
C G
She was the match that would strike up a light
Dm
And the day that said hi to the night
F
And she was bowling me down
C
And I was praying
G
As I struggled to stand on my feet
Dm
I walked tall with her there on the street
F
But as the earth spun around
A(no3) Bb (no3) G(no3) x2 (as intro)
Hope was fading
Am Em
There was a room where I kept all my things
G
Baseball caps fraternity rings
Dm
And I played my guitar
F Am
With her picture pinned up on the wall
Em F
I stood there to see where I´d fall
C G
She was the match that would strike up a light
Dm
And the day that said hi to the night
F
And she was bowling me down
C
And I was praying
G
As I struggled to stand on my feet
Dm
I walked tall with her there on the street
F
But as the earth spun around
A(no3) Bb (no3) G(no3) x2 (as intro)
Hope was fading
C G
In our rooms there are thoughts that divide
Dm
All those feelings that harbored inside
F C
Am I sinking too deep with what I´m saying
G
All the words they got caught in my head
Dm
Had no order in how they were said
F C
Am I really a creep, hope is fading
