[Verse]
AbCmF
I guess sometimes I'm lucky when I go for whole days at a time
DbEb
without thinking about you, and ask myself why,
AbCmF
but then I find I'm traveling, traveling down, that same old piece of road
DbEb
and wind up down by the water
[Chorus]
FmDbEb
Whatever happened to our walls on the pier?
CDbEb
I cry myself alone all the way down to the end,
FmEb
I drink my bottle dry and heave it across
CDbEb
the bay, to the city, smashin' outside your door.
[Verse]
AbCmF
Oh now there goes the Romeo, hand in hand with his punk rock Juliet,
DbEb
they remind me of two people I'm trying to forget,
AbCmF
I can hear their sweet nothings on the wind, as I hurry to get by,
DbEb
diverting my gaze, to the Oakland Bay Bridge.
[Chorus]
FmDbEb
Whatever happened to our walls on the pier?
CDbEb
I cry myself alone all the way down to the end,
FmEb
I drink my bottle dry and heave it across
CDbEb
the bay, to the city, smashin' outside your door.
[Bridge]
DbAbGb
(Could that be you honey, way over on that side? Flashin' a
GAbEbDbAb
signal to me, down by Pier 39, 'cause if I only knew, I'd jump in that
FGbEb
water and swim right across, drowning in my relief).
[Verse]
AbCmF
Maybe I should be warning them, should I say, "Don't do something that you'll regret.
DbEb
Now you have no recollection of heartbreak you don't have yet."
AbCmF
I could give them an arful, but I know, they must find out on their own,
DbEb
and the thought of that is chilling me to the bone.
[Chorus]
FmDbEb
Whatever happened to our walls on the pier?
CDbEb
I cry myself alone all the way down to the end,
FmEb
I drink my bottle dry and heave it across
CDbEb
the bay, to the city, smashin' outside your door.
