You fol lowed me

You (G)fol lowed me

to (C)Al a bam’,

things looked good in (G)Bir ming ham,

we did n’t find it (C)there

so we (D7)moved on.

I know you’re (G)tired

my e lu sive (G)dreams and schemes,

for they’re on ly

fleet ing things,

my e lu sive (G)dreams.

You fol lowed me

to (G)U tah,

we did n’t find it (C)there

so we (D7)moved on.

You (G)fol lowed me

I know you’re (G)tired

my e lu sive (G)dreams.

And (G)dreams,
