[Verse 1]
Em C
Monday I drifted away
D G D/F#
with some coffee to keep me awake
Em C
and I sang to you one final time
D G D/F#
as this hopelessness shut up your eyes.
Em C
Tuesday I woke with the dawn
D G D/F#
and put my old wedding ring on.
Em C
She said, time is a fickle mistress
D G D/F#
you can drink but you'll never fool it.
[Chorus]
C G
I am invisible to you.
C G
All on my own, what can i do?
C G D/F#
Southbound is heaven, this city is sin.
[Verse 2]
Em C
Wednesday I hung from a tree
D G D/F#
hoping that you'd notice me.
Em C
And you bathed all my wounds in your tears
D G D/F#
and showered me with sympathy.
Em C
Thursday was harder to take
D G D/F#
with these pills piled high on my plate.
Em C
So I swallowed each one in a haze
D G D/F#
in a cascade of light I was saved.
[Chorus]
C G
I am invisible to you.
C G
All on my own, what can i do?
C G D6/F#
Southbound is heaven, the city is sin.
[Bridge]
Em C D G D/F#
(repeat four times)
[Chorus]
C G
She says I'm sorry my darling.
C G
Time stole the joy we were hiding.
C G D/F#
I am in love and this child is yours.
[Coda]
Em C
And I don't want to live in this lie.
D G
And let darkness just cover my eyes.
Em C
And I'm trying to get myself clean
D G D/F#
but it's all I can do to just scream.
[Outro]
Em C D G D/F#
