Intro : [D-Dsus4][D-Dsus2]  x2


1st verse :
D                  G
 It doesn't pay to try
Bm                  D
 All the smart boys know why
D                         G
 It doesn't mean I didn't try
Bm                 D
 I just never know why
D                      G
 Feel so cold and all alone
Bm               D
 Baby you're not at home
D             G
 And when I'm home
Bm             D  -     Dsus4 -  D -  Dsus2 - 
 Big deal I'm still alone

[D-Dsus4][D-Dsus2]



2nd verse :
D                 G
 Feel so restless I am
Bm                    D
 Beat my head against a pole
D                  G
 Try to knock some sense
Bm          D
 Down in my bone
D                         G
 And even know they don't show
Bm                D
 The scars aren't so old
D              G
 And when they go
Bm            D    -
 They let you know
 
 

Chorus :
    G     -        A    -       D
You can't put your arms round a memory
    G     -        A    -       D
You can't put your arms round a memory
    G     -        A    -       D
You can't put your arms round a memory
      G     G        A>let ring
Don't try__________  ah_____

D                      G
 You're just a bastard kid
Bm              D
 And you got no name
D                       G
 Cause your livin' with me
Bm                D
 We're one in the same
D                         G
 And even know they don't show
Bm                D
 The scars aren't so old
D              G
 And when they go
Bm            D    -
 They let you know, okay
