Dying on the Vine John Cale
I've been chasing ghosts a[Ab]nd I don'[Bb]t like it[Cm]
I wish s[Ab]omeone would show me w[Bb]here to draw the l[D#]ine[(G)]
I'd lay d[Ab]own my sw[Bb]ord if you would take [Cm]it
And tell e[Ab]veryone back home I'm doing [G]fine
I was w[Ab]ith you d[Bb]own in aca[Cm]pulco
Trad[Ab]ing clothing [Bb]for some w[D#]ine[(G)]
Smel[Ab]ling like an o[Bb]ld adobe w[Cm]oman
Or a william bu[Ab]rroughs playing for lost t[G]ime
I was [D#]thinking about my m[Cm]other
I was t[D#]hinking about what'[Cm]s mine
I was li[Ab]ving my l[Bb]ife like a holl[Cm]ywood
But I was d[Ab]ying on the v[G]ine
Who could s[Ab]leep through a[Bb]ll that noisy cha[Cm]tter
The tro[Ab]ops, the celeb[Bb]rations in the [D#]sun[(G)]
The author[Ab]ities say my p[Bb]apers are all in o[Cm]rder
And if I w[Ab]asn't such a coward I would [G]run
[Ab]Meet me when all [Bb]the shooting's [Cm]over
[Ab]Meet me on the [Bb]other side of [D#]town[(G)]
Yes, you can b[Ab]ring all your fr[Bb]iends along for protec[Cm]tion
It's al[Ab]ways nice to have them hanging ar[G]ound
I was [D#]thinking about my m[Cm]other
I was t[D#]hinking about what'[Cm]s mine
I was l[Ab]iving my [Bb]life like a ho[Cm]llywood
But I was d[Ab]ying on the v[G]ine
