B5                  D5                           A5
Got a message in my head, that the paper had all come.  Richard Manuel


    B5                            D5
is dead and the daylight’s coming on.  I’ve been wandering through the 

A5                            B5    
dark, now I’m standing on the lawn.

If I could give all my love to you, I could justify myself, but I’m just not
coming through.  You’re a pill to ease the pain of all the stupid things I do,
I’m an anchor on the line of a clock that tells time, that is running out on you.

It was cold when I awoke, and the day was halfway done, nearly spring in San Francisco,

                        D5                                               A5                B5
and I cannot feel the sun.  You were sleeping next to me, but I knew you’d be gone.

Verse 1:
Bm                    D
  Got a message in my head
			       A
that the papers had all come
		      Bm
Richard Manuel is dead
			        D
and the daylight's comin' on
				        A
I've been wandering through the dark
			      Bm    (B) (C#) D
now I'm standing on the lawn


Chorus:
                 A      Bm     D
If I could give all my love to you
                  A
I could justify myself
        G                D
but I'm just not coming through
                           A
You're a pill to ease the pain
             G             D
of all the stupid things I do
             (C#)    Bm
I'm an anchor on the line
                          G
of a clock that tells the time
                       A   G   D  (play first 1/2 of intro riff over A
G D)
that is running out on you


Verse 2:
Bm                    D
  It was cold when I awoke
                        A
and the day was halfway done
                         Bm
Nearly spring in San Francisco
                      D
and I cannot feel the sun
                          A
You were sleeping next to me
                         Bm   (B) (C#) D

Verse 3:
Bm                          D
  Take some time before you go
                           A
To think of Mondays coming down
                        E
and the people that you knew
                           Bm
and the ones that aren't around
                          D
You've been fading day to day
                          Bm    D
I've been moving town to town

Repeat Chorus twice
(skip the intro riff between these repeats)
End with a variation on Riff 1 (it's a really easy variation)
