B A E

E                  A
Had to go crazy to love you
E                     B
Had to go down to the pit
E         E7          A
Had to do time in the tower
F#                  B
Beggin' my crazy to quit

E                  A
Had to go crazy to love you
E             C#m       B
You, who were never the one
       E                  E7       A
Whom I chased through the souvenir heartache
    E              B            A
Her braids and her blouse all undone

   C#m                        B
   Sometimes I’d head for the highway
       C#m         F#            B
   I’m old and the mirrors don’t lie
       E                   G#      C#m
   But crazy has places to hide in
            F#                  B
   That are deeper than any goodbye

E                  A
Had to go crazy to love you
E                     B
Had to let everything fall
E            E7            A
Had to be people I hated
F#                  B
Had to be no one at all

E                       A
I’m tired of choosing desire
E                    C#m        B
I’ve been saved by a blessed fatigue
   E          E7          A
The gates of commitment unwired
    E      B         E
And nobody tryin’ to leave

   C#m                        B
   Sometimes I’d head for the highway
       C#m         F#               B
   I’m old and the mirrors don’t lie
       E                   G#      C#m
   But crazy has places to hide in
            F#                  B
   That are deeper than any goodbye

E                  A
Had to go crazy to love you
E              C#m       B
You, who were never the one
       E                  E7       A
Whom I chased through the souvenir heartache
    E              B        A         E
Her braids and her blouse       all undone
