Am   G6       F           C

I'll fake it through the day

Fmaj7	                 		                Dm/F

with some help from Johnny Walker Red

C       Em

and the cold pain

Am                 F	         C

behind my eyes that shoots

E

back through my head

Am  	G6       F       C

    Two tickets torn in half

and a lot of nothin' to do

C   	          Em

but it's all right

Am     G6       D/F#

some enchanted night

I'll be with you

Eb       Gm                  C                   Eb

Tarot cards and the lines in my hand

tell me I'm wrong but they're untrue

           G6        	 F       C

I got plans for both of us

that involve a trip out of town

Am7         G6                       F   C

to a place I'd seen in a magazine

C		         E

that you left lyin' around

Am	         G6             F      C

I keep a good attitude

some enchanted night

I know you'd rather see me gone

than to see the, come the day

I'll be waiting for you anyway

Am	   G6        F    C

     Next door the TV's flashing

Fmaj7	              Dm

blue frames on the wall

           C       Em          F    C

It's a comedy from the sanity

                     	E

with a lead no one recalls

Am 	G6        F      C  Fmaj7

       To vanish into oblivion

Fmaj7	      Dm

it�s easy to do

C      Em

and I cried to sleep

                 Am		G6

when you talked to me

D/F# 	F 		C

the day you said we were through

C 	Em

but it�s all right

some enchanted night

I�ll be with you
