[Intro]
G Em C C
G Em C C
[Verse 1]
G Em
Got a TV on the floor
C
And a deadbolt on my door
G Em C
A grudge and two packs of cigarettes
G Em
Well the landlord's on my case
C G
I can't blame him these days
G Em C
And I'm tryin' my best to make the rent
[Chorus 1]
D G C
Maybe tonight I should turn off my mind
D G C
Just sit back with the late-night cable shows
D G C
Listen to the wind, I know no one's comin' in
Em D
Oh sometimes
D G
It is just nice to pretend
G Em C C
G Em C C
[Verse 2]
G Em
Now Ahmed moved to Nevada
C
To try and be closer to his father
G Em C
Sometimes I wish I'd gone along too
G Em
I wouldn't mind the weather
C
'cause I've always loved the desert
G Em C
And the heat might distract me from you
[Chorus 2]
D G C
Maybe tonight I should turn off my mind
D G C
Just sit back to the sound of the screendoor
D G C
Tappin' in the wind, I know no one's comin' in
Em D
Oh sometimes
D G
It is just nice to pretend
G Em C C
G Em C C
[Solo]

D G C C
[Bridge]
G Em
Well I heard about your mother
C
And the rumor of another
G Em C
Lover in the valley of your heart
G Em
Could it be a wildfire
C
Buildin' higher and higher
G
That's callin' me
Em C
Right back to the start
[Chorus 3]
D G C
Maybe tonight I should turn off my mind
D G C
Wish that you were six feet underground
D G C
You'd see me no more, or my TV on the floor
Em D
Oh sometimes
D G
It is just nice to pretend
[Outro]
G Em C C
G Em C C
G Em C C
G Em C C
G Em C C G
