The Late Show – Jackson Browne (Album: Late for the Sky)
------------------------------
G C
Everyone I've ever known has wished me well
G C
Anyway that's how it seems, it's hard to tell
G D C
Maybe people only ask you how you're doing
G D D#dim Em G
'Cause that's easier than letting on how little they could care
C C#dim G/D B7 Em
But when you know that you've got a real friend somewhere
Am D
Suddenly all the others are so much easier to bear
G C
Now to see things clear it's hard enough I know
G C
While you're waiting for reality to show
G D
Without dreaming of the perfect love
C G
And holding it so far above
D D#dim Em G
That if you stumbled onto someone real, you'd never know
C
(You'd never know)
G
You could be with somebody who is lonely too
C
(Sometimes it doesn't show)
G
He might be trying to get across to you
C
(Words can be so slow)
C#dim G/D B7/D# Em
When your own emptiness is all that's getting through
Am D
There comes a point when you're not sure why you're still talking
G
I passed that point long ago
G7 C
(Long ago)
G
Now I'm so tired of all this circling
D D#dim Em
And all these glimpses of the end
G
(You know it's useless to pretend)
C
That's all the voices say:
G D/F# Em
"You'll go right on circling
Am D
Until you've found some kind of friend"
G C
I saw you through the laughter and the noise
G C
You were talking with the soldiers and the boys
G D
While they scuffled for your weary smiles
C G
I thought of all the empty miles
D D#dim Em
And the years that I've spent looking for your eyes
G C
(Looking for your eyes)
G
And now I'm sitting here wondering what to say
C
(That you might recognize)
G
Afraid that all these words might scare you away
C
(And break through the disguise)
C#dim D B7/D# Em
No one ever talks about their feelings anyway
Am
Without dressing them in dreams and laughter
D G G7
I guess it's just too painful otherwise
Solo:
|C |G |D D#dim |Em G |
|C |G D/F# Em |Am |D |
Look...
D#dim
It's like you're standing in the window
Em G
Of a house nobody lives in
C D
And I'm sitting in a car across the way
C
(Let's just say)
G
It's an early model Chevrolet
C
(Let's just say)
G D/F#
It's a warm and windy day
Em Em/D#
You go and pack your sorrow
G/D A7/C#
The trash man comes tomorrow
C D G
Leave it at the curb and we'll just roll away
Coda:
|C |G |C |G |
|C |G |C |G (car door) |
|C |G (car door) |C D |Em Em/D# |
|G/D A7/C# |C D |G ||
