     Em9
They sat in an Abandoned Luncheonette
Gm7      C7           D                                  Bm
Sipping imaginary cola and drawing faces in the tabletop dust
Em7                      Gm7                     C7
His voice was rusty from years as a sergeant on "this man's army"
D                  Bm
They were old and crusty

Em7
She was twenty when the diner was a baby
Gm7        C7          D                                        Bm
He was the dishwasher, busy in the back, his hands covered with gravy
Em7
Hair black and wavy
Gm7                   C7
Brilliantine slick, a pot - cleaning dandy
D                Bm
He was young and randy

Br. Intro
Em7 - Gm7 - C7

F          Bb/F
Day to day, to day... today
F                             Bb/F
Then they were old, their lives wasted away
F               Bb/F
Month to month, year to year
     Am         Dm     A+/C#     F/C
They all run together, all run together
     Gm7                                                  Gm7/C
Time measured by the peeling of paint on the luncheonette wall

     Em9
They all sat together in the empty diner
Gm7                 C7
Filled with cracked china
    D
The old news was blowing across the filthy floor
        Bm                                            Em7
And the sign on the door read (sign on the door read): "this way out", that's all it read
Gm7                     C7
Doodily Doodily Doodily doo doo
              D                           Bm
That's all it said oooooooo that's all it said

Br. Intro
Em7 - Gm7 - C7

F          Bb/F
Day to day, to day... today
F                             Bb/F
Then they were old, their lives wasted away
F               Bb/F
Month to month, year to year
F               Bb/F
Month to month, year to year
F               Bb/F
Month to month, year to year.....(repeat to fade out)
