Exile

Intro: E  C#m  E  C#m  

 


E 
  I can see you standing, honey 
C#m 
  With his arms around your body 
E                                         C#m 
  Laughin', but the joke's not funny at all 
E 
  And it took you five whole minutes 
C#m 
  To pack us up and leave me with it 
E                                         C#m 
  Holdin' all this love out here in the hall 


A              B                C#m 
  I think I've seen this film before 
      B 
And I didn't like the ending 
A               B           C#m 
  You're not my homeland anymore 
   B                   A 
So what am I defending now? 
            B                C#m               E 
You were my town, now I'm in exile, seein' you out 
A              B                C#m 
  I think I've seen this film before 
E    C#m  E  C#m 
  Ooh, ooh, ooh 


E 
  I can see you starin', honey 
C#m 
  Like he's just your understudy 
E                                           C#m 
  Like you'd get your knuckles bloody for me 
E 
  Second, third, and hundredth chances 
C#m 
  Balancin' on breaking branches 
E                                C#m 
  Those eyes add insult to injury 


A             B                C#m 
 I think I've seen this film before 
      B 
And I didn't like the ending 
A              B          C#m 
  I'm not your problem anymore 
   B                  A 
So who am I offending now? 
            B                 C#m               E 
You were my crown, now I'm in exile, seein' you out 
A              B                C#m 
  I think I've seen this film before 
                       B         E 
So I'm leaving out the side door 


              C#m                    B 
So step right out, there is no amount 
          A 
Of crying I can do for you 
         E 
All this time 
                             C#m 
We always walked a very thin line 
                        B 
You didn't even hear me out (You didn't even hear me out) 
                         A 
You never gave a warning sign (I gave so many signs) 
         E 
All this time 
                             C#m 
I never learned to read your mind (Never learned to read my mind) 
                        B 
I couldn't turn things around (You never turned things around) 
                                A 
'Cause you never gave a warning sign (I gave so many signs) 
E             C#m         B 
  So many signs, so many signs 
                        A 
You didn't even see the signs 


A              B                C#m 
  I think I've seen this film before 
      B 
And I didn't like the ending 
A               B           C#m 
  You're not my homeland anymore 
   B                   A 
So what am I defending now? 
            B                C#m               E 
You were my town, now I'm in exile, seein' you out 
A              B                C#m 
  I think I've seen this film before 
                       B        E 
So I'm leavin' out the side door
