D4C7G GC7G So I sit on this table for one GC7G And pour me a drink that'll last GC7G I'm not drunk I just miss being young D4C7G And I grew old too fast GC7G My wife she breaks and she bends GC7G My children they don't understand GC7G I came here tonight in search of a friend D4C7G But I'm the invisible man C 'cause I've swallowed my tongue and I've polished my gun G and I've sat on my secrets for years C with my stiff upper lip my composure won't slip D and I've hidden each silent salty tear Intro riff GC7G I sit on this table for one GC7G And I have been here before GC7G It's a little less than I'd had in mind D4C7G But I wouldn't ask for more GC7G And my mother she taught me to write GC7G And my father he taught me his trade GC7G And I wish that they could both be here tonight D4C7G To see what a mess I've made C 'cause I've swallowed my tongue C and I've polished my gun G and I've sat on my secrets for years C with my stiff upper lip C my composure won't slip D and I've hidden each silent salty tear C my sons and my daughters don't know me at all C I've dug in trenches and put up walls G I whisper I love you each night as they sleep C But no one hears me when I speak C On this table for one D Strum this once GC7G So I sit on this table for one GC7G I won't go till they tell me to leave GC7G Why'd they teach me to follow my dreams D4C7G When dreams are all they can be?
