{Intro}  (Notes:  [D2 D3-G3-A4] x2 / D2 [bass] G F# D D)

            [G]   [D]   [F#m]   [Bm] [A]  /  [G]   [D]   [F#m]   [Bm] [A]

v1:       [G]So long ago,  I don't re-[D]member when

            That's [F#m]when they say I lost my only [Bm]friend

            [G]Well they said she died easy of a [D]broken heart disease

            As I [F#m]listened through the cemetery [Bm]trees  [G] [D]   [F#m]   [Bm]

v2:       I seen the [G]sun comin' up at the [D]funeral at dawn

            The [F#m]long broken arm of human [Bm]law

            Now it [G]always seemed such a waste She [D]always had a pretty face

            So I [F#m]wondered how she hung around this [Bm]place        [G]   [F#]

c:         Ha-a-a-[G]ey, come on try a little [D]Nothing is forever

            [Em]There's got to be something [A]better than in-the-middle

            [G]But me and Cinderella [D]We put it all together

            [Em]We can drive it home   [A]With one head-[G]light [D]   [F#m]   [Bm]

v3:       She said it's [G]cold  It feels like inde-[D]pendence day

            And I [F#m]can't break away from this par-[Bm]ade

            But there's [G]got to be an opening  [D]Somewhere here in front of me

            [F#m]Through this maze of ugliness and [Bm]greed

v4:       And I seen the [G]sun up ahead  At the [D]county line bridge

            Sayin' [F#m]all there's good and nothingness is [Bm]dead 

            We'll [G]run until she's out of breath  She [D]ran until there's nothin' left

            She [F#m]hit the end-it's just her window [Bm]ledge   [G]   [F#]

c:         Ha-a-a-[G]ey, come on try a little [D]Nothing is forever

            [Em]There's got to be something [A]better than in-the-middle

            [G]But me and Cinderella [D]We put it all together

            [Em]We can drive it home   [A]With one head-[G]light [D]   [F#m]   [Bm]

Solo    (like 1/2 verse)

v5:       Well this place is [G]old  It feels just like a [D]beat up truck

            I turn the [F#m]engine but the engine doesn't [Bm]turn

            Well it smells of [G]cheap wine and cigarettes  This [D]place is always such a mess

            Some-[F#m]times I think I'd like to watch it [Bm]burn

v6:       I'm so [G]lone, and I feel just like some-[D]body else

            Man, I ain’t [F#m]changed but I know I ain’t the [Bm]same

            But [G]somewhere here in between the [D]city walls of dyin' dreams

            I think her [F#m]death it must be killing [Bm]me      [G]   [F#]

c:         Hey, hey, ha-a-a-[G]ey, come on try a little [D]Nothing is forever

            [Em]There's got to be something [A]better than in-the-middle

            [G]But me and Cinderella [D]We put it all together

            [Em]We can drive it home   [A]With one head-[G]light [D]   [F#m]   [Bm]
