Falling Out Of Love

       Em               G
It's a cheap hotel, the heat pipes hiss
    D                                Em
The bathroom's down the hall, and it smells like piss
Em                 G
It's another night in another town
        D                     Em
And I'm another blues traveler headed down



Em                       G
Falling out of love is a dangerous thing
         D                       Em
With its slippery slopes and its weighted wings
Em                     G
With its birds of prey circling overhead
        D                  Em
Casting vulture shadows on barren beds

       A           Em
Let me out, set me free
       A           Em
Let me out, set me free

[verse 2]

Em                   G
The clock inside the church bell tower
           D    Em
Rings your name every hour
           Em      G
I see your face, I touch your hair
          D                Em
Then the ringing fades and nobody's there



Em                       G
Falling out of love is a treacherous thing
          D                    Em
With its crucible kiss and its ravaged ring
Em                         G
With its holy whispers and labyrinth lies
     D       Em
Sacriligious hungry sighs

       A           Em
Let me out, set me free
       A           Em
Let me out, set me free

[verse 3]

Em                        G
I walk the streets, and I taste the dirt
     D                       Em
I am flesh and blood, and my body hurts
Em                    G
I search your silence looking for a crack
      D                      Em
For a passageway where I can pull you back



Em                       G
Falling out of love is a tedious thing
         D                        Em
With its jailhouse smirk and its chain gang swing
                          G
Its time to serve and its sentence set
         D              Em
With its warm blood and cold sweat

[bridge]

       A           Em
Let me out, set me free
       A           Em
Let me out, set me free
