Tom Verlaine Chords

[Intro]
Dmaj7  C#m   F#   G#
C#     A#    F#   G#
 
 
[Verse 1]
Emaj7
      Looking back, I should have known
                        A            E
All the nights that I spent out in space
Emaj7
      If in fact I had said no
                       A            E
What becomes of this? It's hard to say
 
 
[Bridge]
F#m7                  
     I'll feel better 
           A        E
with the breeze on my back
F#m7                               
     And I'll sleep better knowing 
 A           E
it's in the past
 
 
[Verse 2]
Emaj7
      Looking back, I should have known
                        A              E
All the nights that I spent in outer space
Emaj7
      Cigarettes and old regrets 

piled in a stack
            A          E
Out in the back of my brain
 
 
[Chorus]
                A  E
When you walk awaaay
                 A  E
It better be for good
 
 
[Verse 3]
E                       Emaj7
  I put my money on a horse
                             A         E
Who won't be steered on any course or lane
E          B            A
  And if I ever see a dime
                F#m7  B     A            E
You'd take that money to divide and separate
 
 
[Chorus]
                A  E
When you walk awaaay
              A  E
Better be for good
 
 
[Bridge]
F#m7               A                E/G#
     I know you'll be there in the rain
A                 F#m7        
Glowing like the first night, 
A                   Bsus4 B
telling me you've cha     anged
F#m7               A                E/G#
     I know you'll be there in the rain
A                 F#m7        
Glowing like the first night, 
A            G#  G#7
trying to explaaain
 
 
[Chorus]
                     A  E
That when you walk awaaay
                  A  E
It's gonna be for good
                   A  E
You were my Tom Verlaine
                    A  E
Just sitting on the hood
