How many cats in New York city
C
How many angels on a pin
G              D
How many notes in a saxophone
C
How many tears in a bottle of gin
G              D
How many times did you call my name
C                                      G      D
Knock at the door but you couldn't get in

Chorus 1
C      G     D         C
I know.......I've been careless

Verse
G                 D
I've been wrapped up in a shell
C
Nothing could get through to me
G          D
Acted like I didn't know
C
I had friends and family
G           D
I saw worry in your eyes
C                        G   D
Didn't look like fear to me

Chorus 2
C      G     D         C         G
I know.......I've been careless
D      C             G
I lost my tenderness
D         C        G
I've been careless
D      C
I took bad care of this

G, D, C  (x4)

Verse
G        D
Like a mixture in a bowl
C
Like a frozen over lake
G           D
Like a long time faded smile
C
Got so hard I had to crack
G               D
You were there, you held the line
C                              G     D  
You're the one that brought me back

I know.......I've been careless
D      C             G
I lost my tenderness

I've been careless
D      C
I took bad care of this

How many stars in the milky way

How many ways can you lose a friend
