Ron Pope - Stranded in los angeles

She said, ^D"There are things about you I d^Gon't really underst^Dand." I am ^Bmdrinking in the afternoon, got ^Gwhiskey on my^D breath. And as I^D walk through Greenwich Village, with a ^Gsuitcase full of^D clothes, I am ^Bmblinded by the afternoon and ^Gunsure where to^D go. I am ^Bmblinded by the afternoon and ^Gunsure where to^D go.

Will you ^Gcome for me on days like this when ^BmI am broken down' 'Cause I've been ^Gstrangled by an emptiness that's ^Bmstill choking me now. I have ^Gprayed for absolution that won't ^Bmever c^Aome arou^Gnd, Bm A' D So if you love me, won't you please forgive me now'

Then I ^Dtry to call my mother, but she's ^Gnot around to^D talk, So I ^Bmwander through the fading day, ^Goblivious and^D lost. Yes I ^Dknow I'm getting older, chasing ^Gtime that slips away. ^D Point my ^Bmheadlights towards the interstate, it's ^Gtime for my e^Dscape. Point my ^Bmheadlights towards the interstate, it's ^Gtime for my e^Dscape.

I am ^Gsorry for the things I've done; don't ^Bmtry to let you down. In my ^Gdreams at night I hear your voice, and I'm ^Bmshaken by the sound. Now I'm ^Gstranded in Los Angeles and ^Bmyou're all I^A think ^Gabout. Bm A' D So if you love me, won't you please forgive me now'

I hope there's a ^Gmillion stars above ^Dyou, And every^Gthing you need, I hope it ^Dfinds you. Every ^Gbreath you breathe, hope it comes ^Deasy, I hope it's ^Aeasy.

I've got a ^Dpicture in my wallet of a ^Ggirl I used to^D know, And a^Bmnother of my family, it's been ^Gtoo long since I've been^D home. Now I'm ^Dwaiting on a train. Where I'll end ^Gup, God only^D knows. Maybe ^BmI'll make my way back to her, but I ^Gguess I probably^D won't. Maybe ^BmI'll make my way back to her, but I ^Gguess I probably^D won't.

You are ^Gsomewhere far away from me; I'm ^Bmhere all by myself. Through the ^Gspace between the two of us, ^Bmwish I had something else. 'Cause I'd ^Gsurrender up most anything if I ^Bmthought ^Ait'd help so^Gmehow. So if you ^Bmlove me, won't you ^Aplease forgive me^D now' If you ^Bmlove me, won't you ^Aplease forgive me^D now'
