[Verse]

Eb      Cm
Smeared black ink
Eb             Cm
Your palms are sweaty

And I'm barely listening
   Eb     Cm
To last demands
Eb                              Cm
I'm staring at the asphalt wondering
                        Ab Eb
What's buried underneath
         Bb    Ab Eb Bb
where I stand


[Verse 2]

Eb      Cm
Wear my badge
Eb
A vinyl sticker with big block letters
Cm
Adherent to my chest
Eb                   Cm
That tells me where I am
Eb                 Cm
I am a visitor here I am not permanent
        Eb       Cm
And the only thing
Eb      Cm
keeping me dry is


[Chorus]

Ab          Eb
You seem so out of context
Bb
gaudy apartment complex
Ab         Eb
A stranger with your door key
Bb                           Ab
Explaining that I'm just visiting
         Eb         Bb
And I am finally seeing
                               Ab Eb Bb
Why I was the one worth leaving
                           Ab
I was the one worth leaving
         Eb             Bb
District sleeps alone tonight
                              Ab
After the bars turn out their lights
             Eb
And send the autos swerving
Bb
Into the loneliest evening
Ab       Eb         Bb
And I am finally seeing
                                Ab Eb
Why I was the one worth leaving
Bb                         Ab Eb Bb
I was the one worth leaving
                         Ab Eb Bb
I was the one worth leaving
