Seven Year Ache

Intro
C   Am   G   Dm  G

Verse 1
C
You act like you were just born tonight
     Am
Face down in a memory but feelin' alright
   G
So who does your past belong to today?
       Am                                G
'Cause you don't say nothin' when you're feelin' this way

Verse 2
C
Girls at the bar thinkin', "Who is this guy?"
    Am
But they don't think nothin' when they're tellin' you lies
G
You look so careless when you're shootin' that bull
               Am                               G
Don't you know heartaches are heroes when their pockets are full?

Tell me you're tryin' to cure a seven-year ache
Am                     F
See what else your old heart can take
                                Dm
The boys say, "When is he gonna give us some room?"
    Am                         G
The girls say, "God, I hope he comes back soon"

Verse 3
C
Everybody's talkin', but you don't hear a thing
       Am
You're still uptown on your downhill swing
G
Boulevard's empty, why don't you come around?
         Am                    G
Tell me, what's so great about sleepin' downtown?

Verse 4
C
There's plenty of dives to be someone you're not
               Am
You say you're lookin' for somethin' you might've forgot
G
Don't bother callin' to say you're leavin' alone
                 Am                               G
'Cause there's a fool on every corner when you're tryin' to get home
