[Verse 1]
Ab  Ab/Gb        Fm Db   Eb
I'm not thinking of you
         Fm            Db             Bb
When I swing left onto Gordon Avenue
     Eb               Ab      Db     Dbadd9
It's just the way the traffic veers
C7      E                 Db         Bb     Ab
Haven't driven down these streets in years
 
 
[Chorus]
Ab  Bbm  Db/C Db    Eb           Fm7      Eb   Db  Ebsus4 Ab
But then I pass the last place I saw you alive
 
 
[Verse 2]
Ab         Ab/Gb       Fm    Db    Eb
I walk the narrow path these days
            Fm            Db
I can't see going back to my old ways
Bb      Eb                  Ab               Db
Call to mind sometimes that bloody, stinking mess
C7 E               Db             Bb    Ab
Us worms turn into butterflies, I guess
 
 
[Chorus]
Ab  Bbm  Db/C Db    Eb           Fm7
But then I pass the last place I saw you alive
 
 
[Verse 3]
G                                 Am
It's changed since you were here, or else it hasn't
       Bb
It was special, it was deadly
       F                      Fsus2 F
It was ours and then it wasn't

[Verse 4]
Ab                Ab/Gb    Fm      Db    Eb
It's only now and then you come to mind
          Fm                  Db
There's a trillion things you left behind
Bb   Eb               Ab         Db
It's just the way the math works out
C7      E             Db        Bb    Ab
Nothing really to get worked up about
 
 
[Chorus]
Ab  Bbm  Db/C Db    Eb           Fm7
But then I pass the last place I saw you alive
