G                        D
Sometimes I wonder where you’re coming from
         Em                           C
when you roll in like thunder just to turn around and run…
       G                              D
it’s a good thing I don’t need you to stay


G                             D
 You smell like moonlight and early morning rain
Em                     C
  Pray tell a fool but surrender to your pain
G                          D
 Or find a cure for your decay


Chorus:
C                           Em
You’re at your best with an ache in your chest
         D                          C           
and that worn out old song that you play
Em               D
  Only Jesus and you who long to teach us
       C
should know and be left to betray.


G                           D
I don’t know the answer but I know who to blame
        Em                   C
You can choose the dancer if you could choose the flame
  G                                    D
I think you’ll find they’re one in the same
                           Em
It doesn’t have to be this way

Chorus:
C                           Em
You’re at your best with an ache in your chest
         D                          C           
and that worn out old song that you play
Em               D
  Only Jesus and you who long to teach us
       C
should know and be left to betray.


G                           D
I don’t know the answer but I know who to blame
Em                     C
  Pray tell a fool but surrender to your pain
       G                              D
It’s a good thing I don’t need you to stay

G                        D
Sometimes I wonder where you’re coming from
         Em                           C
when you roll in like thunder just to turn around and run…
       G                              D
it’s a good thing I don’t need you to stay
                           Em
It doesn’t have to be this way
