Subject: Better Than Ezra

Here is a song off Ezra's first album, "Surprise".

I'm doing this from memory, corrections welcome.

[C]Discarded, left behind [G] paper cups and sour wine
[F]candle wax, table cloth [G] try to wash it won't come off
[C] ticket stubs and movie scenes [G] Dustin Hoffman has gangrene
[F] Ferris wheel in the park [G] city lights after da[F]rk
I'm goin' [G] home when I find a girl that makes me for[F]get 
what I should have [C] done

{chorus}

In [C] winter [F] coats   [G]
In winter [F] coats   [G]
In winter [F] coats   [G]
In [C] winter [F] lives are falling fast behind 
the words make sense, but we don't seem to [G] rhyme

[same as before]

Risin' tide, ocean breeze, crashin' waves, askin' please
listen to the radio, singin with the songs you know
time passes memory fades, forget about the plans we made
decisions wrapped the coat up tight, keep it safe from the light
I'm goin home where I'll find a girl  and we won't forget what we should have
done

[chorus]
