in the corner of her eye

She saw a man up at the bar
just watching time go by
Dm
Looking lonely, so she approached him
just to say hi
Gm
Looking in his eyes felt weird,
Dm
she couldn't say why
Gm
Asked him how his day had been,
Dm
sur prisingly he said
F
I'll be better off dead,
A
some days I'll leave my bed
Gm
I've been sleepwalking through
feeling comatose
Gm
Been alone since my wife
Dm
died from an overdose
Gm
An d I ain't seen my daughter for years,
Dm
Gm
but she was still with me
So I could tell her I'm sorry,
hoping she'd forgive me
Dm

Gm
All she could say while fighting
Bb
She ran in to the back,
Dm
on her face with tears running down
