Verse 1 -

C
Mary, this station is playing every sad song
Am
I remember like we were alive
C
I heard and sung them all from inside of these walls
Am
In a prison cell, where we spent those nights
C
And they burned up the diner where I always used to find her
Am
Licking young boys blood from her claws
C
And I learned about the blues from this kitten I knew
Am
Her hair was raven and her heart was like a tomb



Prechorus-

F                      G
     My heart's like a wound


Chorus-
      Am          F               C              G
I saw tail lights last night in a dream about my first wife
Am        F                C                 G
Everybody leaves and I'd expect as much from you
      Am          F               C              G
I saw tail lights last night in a dream about my old life
Am        F          C    G            C
Everybody leaves, so why, why wouldn't you?



Verse 2 -
        C
Mary, I worried and stalled every night of my life
       Am
Better safe than making the party
      C
And I never had a good time, I sat my bedside,
     Am
With papers and poetry about Estella



Prechorus 2-
F                    G                   F             G
     With great expectations, we had the greatest expectations



Chorus-
      Am          F               C              G
I saw tail lights last night in a dream about my first wife
Am        F                C                 G
Everybody leaves and I'd expect as much from you
      Am          F               C              G
I saw tail lights last night in a dream about my whole life
Am        F          C    G            C
Everybody leaves, so why, why wouldn't you?



Bridge


Chorus-
      Am          F               C              G
I saw tail lights last night in a dream about my first wife
Am        F                C                 G
Everybody leaves and I'd expect as much from you
      Am          F               C              G
I saw tail lights last night in a dream about my whole life
Am        F          C    G            C
Everybody leaves, so why, why wouldn't you?
