Amsterdam Stranded

Verse 1:

Em D

Down the muddy harbour for many a restless night have I been walking

Em D

Down the muddy harbour for many a restless night have I found myself talking

C D

And much to my surprise I found that I've been wrong for so long now

C D

I found that I've been wrong. I found that I have been wrong for so long now

G/C Em D

When it comes down to this

Verse 2:

Em D

I've been to NY city, I've seen the world at large and its hurting

Em D

It took a lot of pain to get me where I am, that's for certain

C D

I felt the arms of God, I felt the devil's kisses in the nighttime

C D

I thought I've seen it all, just to watch it fall like curtains

G/C Em D

Just to watch it come down to this

Verse 3:

Em D

Well, I'm Amsterdam stranded, and it's taken for granted that I'm singing

Em D

But one of these days I will be leaving

C D

I got leaving on my mind, I'm gonna leave it all behind that's for certain

C D

I'm tired of wasting time, chasing this high. Oh, sweet burden

G/C Em

How did we end up like this
