Dm A# I went out on the town and I stumbled Dm A# I got caught in the trap of somethin' Dm A# Bag of bones, sat alone in the deep end Dm A# Pull me up, you don't know what I've been through A It was so cruel Chorus: Dm C A# C When your heart's been aching Dm C A# C When you can't escape it Dm C A# A Don't you feel like breaking down? Took a trip on the skip in the ocean Sunk my ship like a brick, I was sulking Caught a ride on the tide of your lovin' Spun me 'round, ran aground, next to nothing Ain't it something?
