[Verse 1]
A D A D
Every time I go downtown I think I might find you around.
A D Bm E
I take your picture just in case, anybody's seen-
A D A D
A girl who's had her better days, just like the last place that you stayed,
A D Bm E
Where I can see you tipping back the curtains, looking for me.
[Chorus]
D A
You say. "Baby do you have to go away
D A
Just before the deal gets real sweet,
D A
Just before my trouble finally pays off,
E
Can you cover for me?
Bm C#m D
Can you cover for me?
[Verse 2]
A D
I see you coming down the hill.
A D
You smile at me like I'm a worn out thrill,
A D Bm E
As if I have some endless well of dignity.
A D
You cut yourself like a high school kid-
A D
I did it once, everybody did,
A D Bm E
Just to feel the emptying of everything.
[Chorus]
D A
Just to watch it all go away,
D A
Every time the deal gets real sweet,
D A
Every time our trouble finally paid off.
E Bm C#m D
We said, "Cover for me, cover for me."
[Verse 3]
A D A D
It's 2 years of depravity for every year of recovery,
A D Bm E
And you'll lose eventually, if that's what you need.
A D
Of all the friends that make me sad,
A D
You're the one I just can't have-
A D
All the numbers that you left me,
Bm E
They just ring and ring.
[Chorus]
D A
You say. "Baby do you have to go away
D A
Just before the deal gets real sweet,
D A
Just before my trouble finally pays off,
E
Can you cover for me?
Bm C#m D
Like I covered for you?
