^Dm3 A.M. I’m awake^Bbned By a sweet ^Gmsummer rain ^Bb ^A Distant how^Dmling of a pass^Bbing ^Gm Southbound ^Bbcoa^Al train

Was I dream^Dming or was there ^Bbsomeone just lying here^Gm Beside me in this^Bb be^Ad? Am I hea^Dmring things? Or in the ^Bbnext room Did a ^Gmlong forgotten music box j^Bbust start p^Alaying?

And I ^Gmknow [it’s a ^Csin putting words in the mou^F*ths of the dead] And I ^Gmknow [it’s a cr^Cime to weave your wishes in^F*to what they said] And I k^Gmnow [only fo^Cols venture where them sp^F*irits tread] Cause I ^Gmknow [every wo^Crd, every sound bouncing arou^F*nd my head]

[Chorus]

Is just static on the r^Gmadio [Static on the ^Bbradio] ^F ^Eb Static on the r^Gmadio [Static on the ^Bbradio] ^F ^Eb Static on the r^Gmadio [Everything I t^Bbhink I know is just ^Fstatic on the r^Ebadio] Static on the r^Gmadio [Everything I t^Bbhink I know is just ^Fstatic on the r^Ebadio]

[Verse]

Midnight ren^Dmdezvous with a ^Bbpretty girl Wearin' a t^Gmorn and tear-stained g^Bbown ^A Like a ghost^Dm ship, she appeared from n^Bbowhere On a lonely ^Gmhighway and flagged me down^Bb ^A I gave her a li^Dmft downtown to the Grey^Bbhound station And in the flick^Gmer of the neon lights^Bb ^A She kissed ^Dmme goodbye and in the m^Bbirror of her eyes I ^Gmsaw my own refl^Bbectio^An

And I k^Gmnow [The ^Cblind will sometimes le^F*ad the blind] And I k^Gmnow [Through s^Chadow lands and troub^F*led times] And I k^Gmnow [For^Csaking love, we see^F*k the signs] Ans I k^Gmnow [Of t^Cruths forever ^F*hid behind]

[Chorus]

[Solo] [Verse] [A bit quieter in the next four lines, you could try palm muting or other techniques to your taste.]

Now there's a chur^Dmch house about a s^Bbtone's throw down From this ^Gmplace where I been stayin^Bbg ^A It's Sunday ^Dmmorning and I'm sit^Bbtin' in my truck ^GmListening to my neighbor sin^Bbg ^A Ten ye^Dmars ago I might have j^Bboined in But don’t ^Gmtime change those inc^Bblined^A To think l^Dmess of what is wri^Bbtten Than what’s ^Gmwrote between the line^Bbs? ^A

Gm C F * Cause I know [dreams are for those who are asleep in bed] Gm C F * And I know [it's a sin putting words in the mouths of the dead] Gm C F * Cause I know [for all my ruminations I can't change a thing Gm C F * Still I hope [there's others out there that are listening] [Chorus]

To the static on the r^Gmadio [Static on the r^Bbadio] ^F ^Eb Static on the r^Gmadio [everything I t^Bbhink I know is just s^Ftatic on the ra^Ebdio] Static on the r^Gmadio [Ain't praying for mi^Bbracles, I'm just d^Fown on my k^Ebnees] Is just static on the r^Gmadio [Listening for the s^Bbong behind eve^Frything I think I ^Ebknow]

[Static on the radio]

^GmEverything I think I k^Bbnow is just st^Fatic on the ra^Ebdio Gm Bb F Eb [repeat till end]
