Capo on 3rd fret
[Intro]
[Am]
[Verse1]
[Am]There is a roadway, muddy and foxgloved
Whe[Am]Whenever I'd have life enough, my heart is screamin' [Am]of
[Am]And in a few days I would be there, love
What[Am]Whatever here that's left of me is yours just as it [F]was
 
[Pre-chorus]
[F]Just as it [G]was, [Em]baby
Before the [Am]otherness [C]came [Dm] [F]
And I knew its name [G] [Em]
The drug, the dark, the [Em]light, the [Dm]flame
 
[Chorus]
The [Am]highs at the heights of my [G]baby
And it's ho[C]hold had the fight of my [Dm]baby
The li[F]lights were as bright as my [Am]baby
[F]But your love was unm[Am]unmoved [Am]
 
[Verse2]
[Am]Tell me if somehow, some of it remaines
[Am]How long you would wait for me?
[Am]And how long I've been aw[Am]away
[Am]The shape that I'm in now, you're shape in the doorway
[Am]Make your good love known to me
[Am]Just tell me 'bout your day [F]
 
[Pre-chorus]
[F]Just as it [G]was, [Em]baby
Before the [Am]otherness [C]came [Dm] [F]
And I knew its name [G] [Em]
The drug, the dark, the [Em]light, the [Dm]flame
 
[Chorus]
The [Am]highs at the heights of my [G]baby
And it's ho[C]hold had the fight of my [Dm]baby
The li[F]lights were as bright as my [Am]baby
[F]But your love was unm[Am]unmoved
 
[Outro]
And the [Am]sights were as stark as my [G]baby
And the [C]cold cut as sharp as my [Dm]baby
And the [F]nights were as dark as my [Am]baby
And [F]half as beauti[Am]beautiful too
