Lookin' out the window, out on the street
G Bm
I don't know what happened, I'm out on my feet

I still come running, but I ain't the same
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Em A Em A
You can change the channel, take the phone off the hook

Avoid the headlines, but you'll never grow up, baby, if you don't look
[Chorus]

When I saw him go down
Felt like somebody lied
D A
I had to hold my breath 'til the coast was clear

When I saw him go down
Felt like somebody lied
D A D
I had to close my eyes just to stop the tears
[Verse 2]

You're used to winning, how did it feel?

What did they pay you, what did it cost?
G Bm
How long did it take you to know that you lost?
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Em A Em A
You can hit the showers, fill the place up with steam

Close the curtains, but when you woke up, man it wasn't no dream
