No Capo 

Intro: 
Bm A G D (X2) 

Verse 1: 
Bm                          A       G        D 
Now coming down out of this swandive to your arms 
Bm                   A            G         D 
I make no sound as I move through your reservoirs 
Bm 
I wake up quick and I wake up sick as you 
Bm      A             G         A        D 
Abandon me into these fields of rank and file 
Bm           A       G        D 
Through this crowd I hear you breathing 
Bm            A      G          D          Em  F# 
Through these bars I watch them bring more in 

Chorus: 
      D                 F#m                G 
Now I send back letters from the wasteland home 
        D                  F#m           G 
Where I slow-dance to this romance on my own 
          Em                F#m                  A 
It may be two to tango, but boy, it's one to let go 
                       Bm    A  G  D 
It's just one to let go 

Verse 2: 
Bm                        A          G        D 
Now boy keep still, don't spread yourself around 
Bm                         A              G        D 
Get back in line, eat your bread and just work the plow 
Bm 
'Cause you're not through, we're not done with you, did you 
Bm        A             G         A        D 
think you were the only one who's been let down? 
Bm    A            G           D 
Sleep tight little boys of the new damned 
Bm      A           G             D       Em   F#   
Another drop in the tidal wave of quicksand 

Chorus: 
      D                 F#m                 G 
Now I send back letters from the wasteland home 
        D                  F#m           G 
Where I slow-dance to this romance on my own 
            Em                F#m                  A 
It may take two to tango, but boy, it's one to let go 

Bridge: 
    G       D    Em       D 
Now another bad idea gets through 
G        D        Em      A 
Down the assembly line to you 
Bm 
You're every bride I should have burned 
Bm 
Every lesson I've unleared 

Verse 3: 
Bm          A            G       D 
Now in this smoke filled waiting room with 
Bm      A    G        D 
Incarcerated lovesick fools I will 
Em              F# 
Wait for you to cut me loose 

But till then 

Chorus: 
  D                 F#m               G 
I send back letters from the waseland home 
        D                  F#m           G 
Where I slow dance to this romance on my own 
  D                 F#m                G 
I send back letters from the wasteland home 
             D                  F#m           G 
From where I slow dance to this romance on my own
