Version 1 Version 3C Am You can tell Gayle, if she calls, F G that I'm famous now for all of these rock and roll songs. C Am F G And even if that's a lie, she should've given me a try. Am G F C When we were kids on the field of the first day of school. Am G F I would've been her fool. Am G F C And I would've sang out your name in those old high school halls. C G C You tell that to Gayle, if she calls. C Am And you can tell Jane, if she writes, F G that I'm drunk off all these stars and all these crazy Hollywood nights. C Am F G That's total deceit, but she should've married me. Am G F C And tell her I spent every night of my youth on the floor, Am G F bleeding out from all of these wounds. Am G F C I would've gotten her a ride out of that town she despised. C G C You tell that to Janey, if she writes. Am F C G But boys will be boys and girls have those eyes Am F C G that will cut you to ribbons sometimes. Am F C G And all you can do is just wait by the moon Am F C G C and bleed if it's what she says you oughta do. Am – F – C – G Am – F – C – G Am – G – F – C C — G – C C Am You remind Nana, if she asks why, F G that a thief stole my heart while she was making up her mind. C Am I heard she lives in Brooklyn with the cool, F G goes crazy over that New York scene on 7th Avenue. Am G F C But I used to wait at the diner, a million nights without her, Am G F praying she won't cancel again tonight. Am G F C And the waiter served my coffee with a consolation sigh. C G C You remind Nana, if she asks why. C – Am – F – G Tell her it’s alright C – Am – F – G You know it's hard to tell you this. Am – G – F – C Am – G – F – C Oh it's hard to tell you this. Am – G – F – C C G C Here's looking at you, Kid.
