Capo on 3rd fret (I prefer on 1st fret)
[Intro]
A - Bm - F#m --- .... ....
A - Bm - F#m --- .... ....
[Verse A]
A - Bm - F#m --- Smeared black ink.
A - Bm - F#m --- Your palms are sweaty. I'm barely listening
A - Bm - F#m --- To last demands.
A - Bm - F#m --- I'm staring at the asphalt wondering what's buried underneath.
A - Bm - F#m --- Where I am.
A - Bm - F#m --- .... ....
A - Bm - F#m --- Where I am.
A - Bm - F#m --- .... ....
[Verse B]
A - Bm - F#m --- I wear my badge.
A - Bm - F#m --- A vinyl sticker with big block letters adhering to my chest.
A - Bm - F#m --- It tells your new friends,
A - Bm - F#m --- "I am a visitor here. I am not permanent."
A - Bm - F#m --- The only thing
A - Bm - F#m --- Keeping me dry is
[Chorus]
D - A - E --- It seems so out of context in this gaudy apartment complex.
D - A - E --- A stranger with your door key explaining that "I'm just visiting".
D - A - E --- I am finally seeing why I was the one worth leaving.
D - A - E --- Why I was the one worth leaving.

[Chorus]
D - A - E --- The district sleeps alone tonight after the bars turn out their lights
D - A - E --- And send the autos swerving into the loneliest evening.
D - A - E --- I am finally seeing why I was the one worth leaving.
D - A - E --- Why I was the one worth leaving.
