C#m                         A
She hums a song she can't remember
    C#m                           Ab7   Ab7sus
The music lives but the words are dead
    C#m                     A
The song went out in late November
     C#m                             A   B  A  B
It's been 4 days since she's been to bed
C#m                                   A
She's got a tattoo on the back of her neck
C#m                       A
Wears china red lipstick #3
C#m                             A
Stands by the jukebox smoking a cigarette
C#m                                A     B   A  B
Watches the band as she drinks for free Chorus: A E B But don't you know everybody's got a story A Might be a little better than yours E B Have you ever bled for the price of glory A Then what the hell are you livin' for E B You sit and to listen to the music A But you don't hear that song E B This old world spins a little faster C#m And the band plays on Everybody stops to watch her move She laughs just a little at a neon pane The girls's think she's got somethin' to prove And all the boys wanna know her name But the storybooks were wrong again And the songs on the radio lie She weeps for who's she been But nobody hears her cry Chorus She's getting' high back in the alley Standing' in the pourin' rain The nights have always been just a little too hard And don't you know it helps ease the pain Chorus Chorus
