Bm You're looking for a way out A I can feel it Em Come on, show me where it hurts Bm Maybe I can heal it Bm Your feelings are your own A Now you keep 'em under lock and key Em You got me drivin' through the streets Bm For an answer to the mystery Chorus: G D/F# A The world's still weak on Charleston Avenue G D/F# A Outside that vacant Starlight Motel I see you G D/F# Laughing with your girlfriends A Not a care in the world, Bm A Em not a burden on your mind Bm It was a matter of time There's a panic in this house and it's bound to surface Just walking through the front door makes me nervous It's creeping up the floorboards, got me wondering where I stand I cannot put out the fire, I got a book of matches in my hand Chorus: When we first met, headstrong and filled with doubt Made just enough hustling tables that summer to take you out I was falling back on forever Then you told me about your heart You laid it on the line Laughing with your girlfriends Not a care in the world, not a burden on your mind (You laid it on the line) It was just a matter, It was a matter of time G A We'd find ourselves a place, Bm A we belong in this forever D G A Ain't that what it's all about? G A Make the promise and keep it Bm A Come hell or high water D A G We'd figure it out G A It was the night, it was the moon Bm A It was the green grass in the garden D G A The victory and the sin G A I know you're weary, look at me Bm A Flailing in the corner Em Here's the towel D/F# G Go on, throw it in Chorus: It was a matter of time Can't you see that it's tearing me up inside? Look what's laying at our feet That's the wreckage of broken dreams And burned out halos And it's here on our street You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA  D  Em  F#  G  Bm  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
