Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]Count the steps around the park
Consider [D]drinkin' in the yard
Hang the [F]words of a perfect stranger
In [C]the hallways of my heart

[Verse 2]
'Cause all the [C]blessings are somebody
else's
[D]They're flowers in
my neighbor's pot
I'm torn ex[F]actly into two pieces
One who wants [G]you and
one who's gone dark

[Verse 3]
But I'm still in[C]side
Your fast [F]machine
Always [Am]holding your love su[F]preme
[C]Old 45s
Spinnin' out of [F]time
But honey, [Am]I'm still on [G]your side

[Interlude 1]
[F][C]

[Verse 4]
Are my [C]hopes finally gonna waste me?
Am I the [D]worst compass I could know?
I took [F]the bus across the bridge
Sold my [C]bedroom from my home

[Verse 5]
Maybe it's the [C]east coast in the music
Or the [D]endless road from the past
But while [F]you're praying at
the 90s
They're carving [G]up anything that lasts

[Verse 6]
But I'm still in[C]side
Your fast ma[F]chine
Always [Am]holding your love su[F]preme
[C]Old 45s
Spinnin' out of [F]time
[C]But hon[F]ey,
[Am]I'm still [G]on your side

[Interlude 2]
[F][C][F]

[Verse 7]
[G]Now you're just the stranger
that I know be[C]st[F]
[G]Now you're just the stranger
in our [C]bed[F]
[G]Now I'm just the stranger that
you [C]know best
[F][G]

[Verse 8]
There ain't no [C]book that I can live by
Just these [D]naggings I can't shake
A [F]hum coming from the basement
A little cryin' [C]out for cryin' out's sake

[Verse 9]
But if [C]I can learn to love your shadow
When [D]your shadow hits the light
And there ain't no [F]trace of what
we've been through
Then [G]I'll shout it 'til the day that I die

[Verse 10]
Hey, I'm still in[C]side
Your fast ma[F]chine
[C]I'm al[F]ways [Am]holding
your love su[F]preme
[C]Old 45s
Spinnin' out of [F]time
But honey, [Am]I'm still on [C]your s[F]ide

[Verse 11]
[F]Hon[C]ey, [F]I'm[C] still on you[F]r side
