-----------------------------------------------------------------------
In days of peace,
Sweet smell- ing summer nights
Of wine and song.
Dusty pave- ment, burning feet.
Why am I cry- ing? I want to know.
How can I smile and make it right
For sixty days and eighty nights,
And not give in and lose the fight?
Pre-chorus: Em G A D (2x)
F# A B E (2x)
B C# D (2x)
Chorus:
G A D
I'm going back to the ones that I know
G C B
With whom I can be what I want to be.
G A D
Just one week for the feeling to go,
G A D Em (intro riff again)
And with you there to help me then it probably will.
Verse 2 (lyrics):
I won't go down
Acting the same old play.
Gave sixty days for just one night.
Don't think I'd make it, but I'd bet I might.
Pre-chorus
Chorus
Intro riff, then ( Em D ) a couple of times
Chorus (2x)
Intro riff, then more ( Em D ) behind solo, end on Em.

| btw, this song is a love song for his then girlfriend, soon to be wife, and then ex-wife, Jenny. It shows how tiring his touring is, but how the thought of being with her in the end gives him the strength to keep going. And in the end, when he is with her, she helps forget all the pressure and the fatigue of his time on the road. | |
