Dying On The Vine by John Cale
Dying On The Vine
Capo:no capo
Em D Em
I've been chasing ghosts and I don't like it
Cmaj7 D G (B)
I wish someone would show me where to draw the line
Em D Em
I'd lay down my sword if you would take it
Am B (Am/F#)
And tell everyone back home I'm doing fine
Em D Em
I was with you down in Acapulco
Cmaj7 D G (B)
Trading clothing for some wine
Em D Em
Smelling like an old adobe woman
Am B (Am/F#)
Or a William Burroughs playing for lost time
G Em
I was thinking about my mother
G Em
I was thinking about what's mine
Am D G (Em)
I was living my life like a Hollywood
Am B
But I was dying on the vine
Em D Em
Who could sleep through all that noisy chatter
Cmaj7 D G (B)
The troops the celebrations in the sun
Em D Em
The authorities say my papers are all in order
Am B (Am/F#)
And if I wasn't such a coward I would run
Em D Em
Meet me when all the shooting's over
Cmaj7 D G (B)
Meet me on the other side of town
Em D Em
Yes you can bring all your friends along for protection
Am B
It's always nice to have them hanging around
G Em
I was thinking about my mother
G Em
I was thinking about what's mine
Am D G (Em)
I was living my life like a Hollywood
Am B
But I was dying on the vine
