[Intro]
G Gb F E Eb

[Verse]
Ab Cm F
I guess sometimes I'm lucky when I go for whole days at a time
Db Eb
without thinking about you, and ask myself why,
Ab Cm F
but then I find I'm traveling, traveling down, that same old piece of road
Db Eb
and wind up down by the water

[Chorus]
Fm Db Eb
Whatever happened to our walls on the pier?
C Db Eb
I cry myself alone all the way down to the end,
Fm Eb
I drink my bottle dry and heave it across
C Db Eb
the bay, to the city, smashin' outside your door.

[Verse]
Ab Cm F
Oh now there goes the Romeo, hand in hand with his punk rock Juliet,
Db Eb
they remind me of two people I'm trying to forget,
Ab Cm F
I can hear their sweet nothings on the wind, as I hurry to get by,
Db Eb
diverting my gaze, to the Oakland Bay Bridge.

[Chorus]
Fm Db Eb
Whatever happened to our walls on the pier?
C Db Eb
I cry myself alone all the way down to the end,
Fm Eb
I drink my bottle dry and heave it across
C Db Eb
the bay, to the city, smashin' outside your door.

[Bridge]
Db Ab Gb
(Could that be you honey, way over on that side? Flashin' a
G Ab Eb Db Ab
signal to me, down by Pier 39, 'cause if I only knew, I'd jump in that
F Gb Eb
water and swim right across, drowning in my relief).

[Verse]
Ab Cm F
Maybe I should be warning them, should I say, "Don't do something that you'll regret.
Db Eb
Now you have no recollection of heartbreak you don't have yet."
Ab Cm F
I could give them an arful, but I know, they must find out on their own,
Db Eb
and the thought of that is chilling me to the bone.

[Chorus]
Fm Db Eb
Whatever happened to our walls on the pier?
C Db Eb
I cry myself alone all the way down to the end,
Fm Eb
I drink my bottle dry and heave it across
C Db Eb
the bay, to the city, smashin' outside your door.
