VERSE:

Dm               C        B

While you were out... the message says

Dm               C      B                 

You left a number and I tried to call

Dm                     C           

But they wrote it down

    B                      Dm     C  

in a perfect Spanish scrawl

    B                               

in a perfect Spanish scrawl


Riff 1


VERSE:

Yet again  I'm missing you

Dm           C        B                    

King size bed  (in a) hotel someplace

Dm               C      

I hear your name 

     B          Dm   C  

I see your face

     B               

I see your face

(The) back street dolls and the side door of johnnies
The wide eyed the boys with their bags full of money
Back in the alley going bang to the wall
Tied to tail of a midnight crawl
Heaven wouldn't be high I know 
if the times gone by hadn't been so low 
The best laid plans come apart at the seams
and shatter all my dreams


VERSE:


Sometimes I feel like... 

Dm       C        B     

Screaming close my eyes

Dm                 C            B            

It's time like this my head goes down

Dm                        C      

and the only thing I know

       B                Dm  C     
is the name of this town

      B                        
is the name of town

Yet again I'm missing you


Dm           C        B           

won´t be long O' coming home


Dm                      C           

Until that distant time


B                 Dm   C            

I'll be moving on


B

I'll be moving on

Notes:

**: artificial harmonic. To do this, do like this: play note as usual, but while you´re playing this, with the indicative finger 
of the rigth hand, you will touch the string slightly with your indicatve finger in the fret that is one octave up**.

* Octave up (example): fret 5 (A string) - one octave up: fret 17 (A string), that is to say, octave up is 12 frets up from the note.
