Edgar Allan Poe
Song A Day #1446

C   G C
In the rundown streets of Baltimore
C  G Am
A man's howls at the moon
F  
He stands on the threshold
C    G
of the Horse You Came In On Saloon 
F
Wearing someone else's clothes
E
A patch of black bristles under his nose
  Am  G   C
He is a broken ghost a husk that will float away

    F  
Into the dark
   C  G
Which all of his dreams grabbed hold of
C  F
And he'll rein
C  G
With all of his old loves
Am  G  C 
With all of his old loves

He was a troubled and dark original 
He was the first of his kind
He used words to make money
Which was unheard of in his time 
By millions loved and known
But he was penniless and alone
There wasn't enough work for a man like him

And into the dark
Where the pendulum just kept swinging
He disembarked
As all of the angels singing 

C   F
All the women that you loved
Am  G
So completely 
They'll all come back to you now
Kiss you sweetly 
Am    G
Every nightmare that you've had
C   F
Will fade away like fog on glass
C    F
And we're sorry that you went through that
G   C 
But you are finally home
