Verse 
G      D              Em 
It all started out so easy 
     C              G 
11th Street bar downtown 
        D                        Em 
Used to drag the boys out on the weekend 
       C                       G 
When I heard she liked to come around 
              D               Em 
Every now and then I'd get to see her 
         C                     G 
Waltzing in with them eastside boys 
        D                               Em 
She had eyes that could cut through the haze 
                C                          G 
You could still smoke in bars back in them days

G            D 
Stop falling for

G            D

Verse

So I talked to my main man Kenny 
                C                          G 
He'??s worked the bar there for 100 years or more 
       D              Em 
When I asked him all about her 
        C                                       G 
He said man what are you doing this to yourself for? 


Pre-Chorus 
G                        D 
It don'??t matter what you do 
                         Em 
It don'??t matter what you say 
             C              G 
She'??ll never love you anyway 
                   D 
You'??ve got to move on 
                        Em 
Yeah you'??ve got to move on

Verse 
G          Em               D 
Loneliness slow dances with darkness 
            C                       G 
Through the city that never used to sleep 
              D                    Em 
Our ghosts to kiss and ride on the C train 
    C                   G 
And memories turn into dreams 


Pre-Chorus 
                       D 
It don'??t matter what I do 
                       Em 
It don'??t matter what I say 
         C 
It won'??t matter anyway 


Chorus 
G            D 
Stop falling for 
Em            C
