Verse 1

|D |Cadd9 |Em7 |D
I can see it in her letters on the paper with her pen

Verse 2

I've been keepin' myself busy with my books and with my tapes
|D |Cadd9 |Em7 |D
And everyday's much better since I slowed my drinkin' pace

There's no swimmin' in the bottle, it's just someplace we all drown
|D |Cadd9 |Em7 |D
And I lost myself in sorrow, lost my confidence in doubt

Read my palm and tell me, why do lovers come and go?
