D Cadd9 Em7 G D
I've been keeping myself busy with my books and with my tapes
D Cadd9 Em7 G D
Every day's much better since I've slowed my drinking pace
D Cadd9 Em7 G D
There's no swimming in the bottle it's just someplace we all drown
D Cadd9 Em7 G D
I lost myself in sorrow lost my confidence in doubt
Em A Em A
Is she coming 'round for me once again, around or was that just the end
G A D
I just hope she's coming round again

VERSE 3:
D Cadd9 Em7 G D
My patience keeps me plaintive my high hopes keep me alone
D Cadd9 Em7 G D
My lover's will is shaken I wish she would just come home
D Cadd9 Em7 G D
So tell me Mrs. Rita what's it say in my tarot
D Cadd9 Em7 G D
Read my palm and tell me why do lovers come and go
