Verse 1 

      C                     Bm 
We drained every dime 
          C               Bm 
In the lower East Side 
              C                           Bm               D 
And you failed to catch the train back to Queens 
            C                  Bm 
So you came to my room 
                      C                                        Bm                  
We did some things that we knew not to do 
          C                Bm                 D 
In the glow of the nights golden hue  




                    C                      Bm 
You've got a tattered line of string 
                    D 
That you've tied 'round everything 
                C                        Bm 
That you want to call your own 
         D 
But it never seems to hold 


Verse 2 

                 C             Bm 
When we woke we agreed 
                C                    Bm 
That we would not ever speak 
             C               Bm                      D 
Of this night to anyone that we both knew 
                        C                     Bm 
And you said, "Every time we kiss 
        C                                      Bm 
I felt something that could not exist" 
          C                       Bm                         D 
And I confessed that I thought that I felt it too 




                   C                      Bm

That you want to call your own 
         D 
But it never seems to hold
