Standard (EADGBE)

I was 13th at the table when the wine was passed around

Amid an air of suspicion my glance was meet with callous frowns

If I was superstitious I'd be the black cat no one wants hang'n round

Dark whispers in the hallway accusations out of bitter mouths

Strange figures in the doorway a dog barks a drunkard's laugh

There's screaming in the kitchen glass breaks just then the lights go out

Let winter chase butterflies

Let the child believe in lies

Let the road run by my door

 I can't stay here anymore

I won't, I won't look back at my dream burning on the side of the road

Sometimes it just goes like that

Falling or flying, star or stone

Bridge

Close the window I just can't hear the highway anymore

Lay beside me and let our fires burn until the dawn

Guitar solo rhythm

The guitar solo goes on for a couple of minutes, and when it's time to wrap it up,

play the following:

A telephone was ringing a heavy price on the other line

Outside the window a comet shoots across the sky

Between love and hope and money

There's loss and pain and honey

 So take a spoonful every time

 And if you don't like what you see

Don't come running to me

Cause I'm bound to my own way

I'm a million miles away

I won't I won't look back at my dream burning on the side of the road

Sometimes it just goes like that

Falling or flying, star or stone

I won't I won't look back at my dream burning on the side of the road

Sometimes it just goes like that

Falling or flying, star or stone
