Standard (EADGBE)
Verse 1
-
It's one hundred and nine degrees
in this crowded room
no room to breathe
with walls as cold as a gallery
This is no place for me
Such hard faces set in smoke,
the smell lingers in my clothes,
it's a bad night to be alone
but that's the way it goes
Chorus
-
And I think of you
whenever life gets me down
I think of you
whenever you're not around
you rest your bones
somewhere far from my own
Yeah, but you still pull me home
Verse 2
-
I thought I had it figured out
in a brand new life
with a great big house
and green initials on the towels
I should be happy now
Well, you've got yourself a family
and you've planted roots down by the sea
I saw you once on the street
You didn't notice me
Chorus
-
But I think of you
whenever life gets me down
I think of you
whenever you're not around
And you rest your bones
somewhere far from my own
Yeah, but you still pull me home
Bridge
Just to put your mind at ease,
you don't owe me anything
You've paid me well in memories
Chorus
-
And I think of you,
whenever life gets me down
I think of you
whenever you're not around
you rest your bones
somewhere far from my own
Yeah, but you still pull me home
Outro
-
Yeah, you still pull me home
You still pull me home
