St. Paul

St. Paul in the winter
Kids are crying for their dinner
Quick smoke and a drink
                   C
Then it's time for bed
   G
He said, "Why do you always seem so down? 
Is something lost that can't be found?"
                                         C
You wait, hesitate, and tell him you're okay
           G
But it's a lie
C           G
  You can't look him in the eye
C                         D
'Cause he won't ever understand you

              Am    C
You want to believe
                 G
That things will change
                Am    C
It worries your heart
                G
Oh to feel this strange
                       Am   C
But you can't stop the world
                   G      Am
No, from spinning around
                      Am   G    C  D
You'll never stop the rain from falling
D     G     
Down, down, down
D     G     C
Down, down, down

G
It's colder than I remember
At this time last December
The wind was blowin' and
                     C
The skies are always grey
    G
You said someday you're gonna leave that man
Realize all that we've planned
Start all over again
                   C
Under the southern sun
           G
But it's a lie
C           G
  You can't look me in the eye
C                    D
Knowin' I won't understand you

                 Am    C
Yeah I want to believe
                    G
Oh that things will change
                  Am    C
And it worries my heart
                  G
Yeah to feel this strange
                     Am     C
But I can't stop the world
                   G     Am
No, from spinning around
                      Am   G    C  D
You'll never stop the rain from falling
D     G     G
Down, down, down

C
  I hope that you understand
              G
You're always welcome at my door
      C
And I hope you understand
             Em
That I"m not hoping anymore...hoping anymore
G

                   Am    C
Yeah you want to believe
                    G
Oh that things will change
                    Am     C
And it worries your heart
