Bb Gm Cm F

[Verse 1]
Bb                                      Gm
  Well am I burning in the back of your mind
Cm                                 F
  'Cause girl I can't get you out of mine
Bb                                         Gm
  And when I heard you say that you'd come of age
Cm                                     F
  But girl you don't look any older to me

[Pre-Chorus]
Cm                    F
  And what becomes of you
Cm                            F
  When the fat lady sings her last tune?

[Chorus]
            Bb                       Gm
When you're holding on by a pin or a thread
         Cm                             F
Will you think of me when you take your last breath?
           Bb                            Gm
When you're crying out for a little more time
                Cm
Will I still be burning there
               F         Bb
In the back of your mind?

[Verse 2]
Bb                                   Gm
  Well, how is life living out on your own?
Cm                                      F
  Well, how was life out of house and of home?
Bb                                           Gm
  And did you do the things that you said you would?
Cm                                     F
  Or right the wrongs that you said you should?

[Pre-Chorus]
Cm                    F
  And what becomes of you
        Cm                                                                  F
Can you say it's true that the life you've led was the life meant to be led by you

[Chorus]
            Bb                       Gm
When you're holding on by a pin or a thread
         Cm                             F
Will you think of me when you take your last breath?
            Bb                           Gm
When you're crying out for a little more time
                Cm
Will I still be burning there
                   F
In the back of your mind?

[Bridge]
Bb                                        Gm
  Girl, I know that with time there comes change
Cm                                           F
  Although I think I've more or less did the same
Bb                                   Gm
  I wonder if the same can be said for you
Cm                               F
  Girl, have you stayed the same too?

[Pre-Chorus]
Cm                   F
  And what became of you
Cm                               F
  When the fat lady sung her last tune?
Cm                   F
  Say what became of you
        Cm                                                                    F
Can you say it's true that the life you've led was the life meant to be led by you

[Chorus]
         Bb                       Gm
Were you holding on by a pin or a thread?
        Cm                             F
Did you think of me when you took your last breath?
         Bb                           Gm
Were you crying out for a little more time?
                Cm
And was I still burning there
                   F     Bb
In the back of your mind?
