Dm 
I'm a lover and a whore 
And I've been rich but I've been poor 
              Am 
It's not over now 
Dm 
And the fortunes that we keep 
Create bonds around our feet 
             Am 
It's not over now

Call me an ambulance

I'm fading away

Dm 
And I've walked in the street 
Had my head down in the feet 
              Am 
It's not over now 
Dm 
Taking for granted and I fell 
Just to appreciate you now 
                             Am 
My world's an island 
Just waiting to be found

Call me an ambulance

I'm fading away

Overwhelmed

Can't let you down

And how do I begin? 
                          Dm 
Can I let you in? 
                           Am 
And how do I begin? 
                         G  
Oh, how do I begin? 


Dm 
Can't hide behind these walls 
The guard of every city falls 
                   Am 
It comes crumbling down 
Dm 
And while your sister lies with me 
Fortune smiles through broken teeth 
           Am 
Just waiting for you to lay her down

I'll  fa~~~~~ll to the back 
F                           G                                  Am 
Forever, ever stumbling down this pa~~~~th
