David Mallett - Coming apart at the seams

Ah Henry, you sure bought that ^Fwhole James ^CDean thing, ^GRight down to the ^Cend. Drinkin' beers, ^Fbangin' ^Cgears, On the outside lookin' ^Gin. Such a ^Fdesperate time on a ^Csmall town stage, With no ^Gprize comin' for the ^Ccomin' of age. So you ^Amburn with a ^Empassion and you ^Fburn with the ^Crage, 'Till the ^Gfire done pulled you ^Cin.

And me, I was just a ^Fgreen eyed ^Ckid, You were ^Gtwo years older than ^Cme. But as I look back on the those ^Fdays in the ^Cdust, You were what we all wanted to ^Gbe. You were ^Fquick with a smile, ^Cgood with a wheel, ^GCool with the women, and you ^Cmade us feel. Like we were ^Amall gonna ^Emrise in a ^Fflash of ^Csteel, In some ^Gteenage fanta^Csy.

So ^Flookout you home town ^Cheros, And ^Glookout you home comin' ^Cqueens. 'Cause there's a ^Ambad kid ^Emcomin' to the ^Fparty to^Cnight, And he's ^Gcomin' apart at the ^Cseams.

Now your ^Amold man still stares at the ^Fstreet sometimes, With a ^Glost, look in his ^Ceyes. And your ^Amsad mama waits in the ^Fheat of the night, And she ^Cthinks about her baby and ^Gcries.

Now all the ^Fnight crews all settle ^Cdown, Theres been e^Gighteen years, but it's the s^Came old town. And the ^Amsun comes ^Emup and the ^Frain comes ^Cdown, On that ^Glonely side, way of ^Clife.

So ^Flookout you home town ^Cheros, And ^Glookout you home comin' ^Cqueens. 'Cause there's a ^Ambad kid ^Emcomin' to the ^Fparty to^Cnight, And he's ^Gcomin' apart at the ^Cseams.
