Chord/Tab song: Holy Hotel

My told-you-so d[C]one told me to
[C]My know-it-all knew what to do
[Am]

But the fact-of-the-matter is a word-to-the-wise

It's[Am] all right there when I close my eyes
I was built[F] for speed, not to last
I was sh[F]ining bright now I'm fadin[C]g fast[G7]
Like ye[C]sterdays and remember-whens
And [C]everywhere I ever been
Still [Am]burns inside this soul of mine
[Am]Took all the turns and turned out find
I c[F]an't recall when it was but it was just in time,
Just be[C]cause[G7]

(chorus)
I was [Am]never fond of fare-thee-wells
Long go[Am]odbyes and time-will-tells
[F]See you soon say so long
[F]Too damn bad it's good as gone
[G]Baby, if you promised not to [F]tell,
[G]Baby, if you promised not to [F]tell,
[G]Baby, if you promised not to [F]tell,
I'm c[F]hecking out of tha[G7]t holy h[Am]otel.


Well, the [C]train pulled out when the truth pulled in
If [C]I were me I'd do it all again
Now I'm[Am] rocking away in this rocking chair
With the [Am]good and the bad and the just ain't-fair
And now it'[F]s you and me and Father Time
Just wai[F]tin' on that perfec[C]t rhyme.[G7]
[C]Well, I never believed I'd ever belong
[C]Where you get all you can from those getting along
And gi[Am]ven the choice 'twixt the two, can't say either one will do
But no[F]wadays, those days of yore
[F]Are just washing up on some distant [C]shore[G7]

(chorus)

(interlude)
[Am](oh,[Am] oh,[F] oh[F], oh, oh, oh)

[C]Every place I am and everywhere I go
[C]I come face to face with what I'll never know
[Am]Regrets are few, say what you will
[Am]But I've seen the world while standing still
When the sun goes do[F]wn and that darkness falls
[F]This know-it-all lived and I loved it [C]all[G7]

(repeat chorus, repeat interlude, fade)
