C F C
We moved the clock one minute to the right
F G

And decided now it wasn't worth a fight
F C F C/E C
I packed up what little I thought that I'd need

F G C
And made my way out into the night


You told me you found a new job teaching
settled in an apartment in New Orleans
So I figured now I'd make my way down south

And hope that the levee's in one piece

Refrain:

F G
I always thought there's a difference
F G

between desire and wanting what you should
F C G C Am
Sometimes you can tell the two apart

F G C
But me I guess I never could


Bridge:
F G
I remember the time you drove all night

F C
Just to meet me in Chicago
F G

You thought I would reciprocate
F G
but his time never was better than late


Instrumental


But when I finally found you at the shelter
You were tired but thank god not dead
And you asked me what was going through head

I'm still not sure what needed to be said

Refrain
