VERSE: 
             G                       Em   
Couple young girls went sailing down A1A 
               C                      D 
To the arms of Florida sailing down a highway 
              Em                            C   
Singing their heads off, tainted by the Holy Ghosts 
                   G                           D      
Flying in from the ocean, driving with their eyes closed 
 
CHORUS: 
 
    C              D         Em      
The night wants to kiss you deep, and be on his way 
C                D        G               D   
Pretend he don't know you  the very next day   
         C                        Em  
Isn't it hard sometimes, isn't it lonely 
                 C                D                  Em 
How I still hang around here when there's nothing to hold me 
 
VERSE: 
 
               G                              Em                  
You slide down into the sea from twelve hours on your feet 
                        C                         D                           
And get the tide to wash you away, thousands and thousands of days 
                 Em                              C 
And someone you never meet signs a check you get every week 
                  G                                   D  
You try and still can't forget all the strangers that you have met 
 
CHORUS: 
 
    C              D       Em 
The night never owed you nothing anyway 
C                      D                G          D    
Makes promises that he never intends to keep every day 
         C                        Em  
Isn't it hard sometimes, isn't it lonely 
                 C                D                  Em       
How I still hang around here, and there's nothing to hold me 
 
BRIDGE: 
 
C                D                    Em  
Every time every year the travelers come and go 
                                C 
You see them landing with their pale wings 
                       D  
And flying back to the snow 
 
 
VERSE: (Same Chords) 
 
 
And the summer comes marching in with his heavy boots on 
Kicking along the blacktopped sidewalks of A1A 
The young girls in their bare feet, cigarettes smoking 
Looking every which way, wishing and a'hoping 
 
 
CHORUS: 
                           
And you want the night just to let you sleep and be on his way 
Wrap you up in some cool sheets and have nothing to say 
Isn't it hard sometimes, isn't it lonely 
How I still hang around here, and there's nothing to hold me 
         C                        Em  
Isn't it hard sometimes, isn't it lonely 
                 C                D                  Em       C 
How I still hang around here, and there's nothing to hold me 
 
                  Em  
La la la la la la la 
                  C         D 
La la la la la la la la la
