1. GIt's K-Mart, thDe bathroom, Em I'm staring in theC mirror,
tGhe greeDn lights are brighEmt, it makes the lines clCearer.
WGhere did thDe angels go, Em cigarette smoke's all that'sC left,
IG've traded my wings in for a string of pearDls,
and now tEmhe string is all I'vCe leG....D....Em...ftC.
2. ThGe light bulbs burnD so much, someEmone's in the stalCl,
bigG white D brick walEml, makes me feel small. C
AnGd I I taDke my shiEmrt off, looking for a glimpseC of flesh,
I peGel back the concreteD, I hope there's sEmtill some soil leftC.
'CGause I am faDding, I am Emfading, I am fadinCg away.
IG am fading, just likDe fairy tales, wheEmn the hero losCes faith.
~
I am fading.
3. ThGe air smells likeD urine, Em it's getting hard to breeze, C
IG could walk out thaDt door, butEm no one ever really leaves. C
AnGd I I take all mDy clothing off, Emtrying not to foCrget,
oh, G stupid things like the coDlor of rain,
andEm the smell of stone when itC's wet.
And I aCm naked in the mirrEmor with a featherBb in my handA,
the ladCy comes out of the bathEmroom,
screaming, "OBbh, Jesus!" Like I was a man.
And I asAk her "Hey, what happens Gto us,
whenEm we get old and in theC way?"
IG guess she anDswered me, 'cos they,Em they took me away. C
AndG I am fading, I amD fading,Em I am fading awCay.
I am Gfading, just likDe fairy tales, when the Emhero loses faiCth.
And I can'tG remember, why orD when,
I hEmope that I'll remembeCr again.
And I am Gfa..D....Emding.C And I'mG fa.D....Em.dingC.
