 Here's a Patty Larkin tune off the "Angels Running" album which
 is easy to learn and hauntingly beautiful, I think.  Mary Chapin
 Carpenter sings a nice harmony on the chorus.  The Story also sing
 background vocals on several songs.  It's a gem of an album. 
 Can someone correctly rename the F* chord below?  I've indicated
 the chords. A listen to the song should convey the simple picking
 pattern.

   C                             F*
 I told him that my dog wouldn't run
   C                         F*
 I told him that I loved someone
                     C      
 Yeah, that's my old car out there 
                F*
 In the parking lot
 
   C                            F*
 I saw him when he first walked in
   C                          F*
 I thought it was a vision of him
                     C            F*
 He was looking like where he had been
                 C       F*
 Looking kind of fragile
 
 
 Refrain:
 
         Am         F*          G
 He said I read the Bible every day
                              Am
 Tryin' to keep the demons at bay
       Am
 Thank God when the sun goes down
 G
 I don't blow away
 
 
 My friend said, was he always like that
 I said yeah, but he was never this bad
 I remember us playing for nickels and dimes
 Out on the corner
 
 I asked him to marry me once
 He told me he couldn't because
 This would be all that there was
 
 (Refrain)
 
 He was laughing but I didn't get the joke
 He was dying to light up a smoke
 And I wanted to cry
 
 In the florescent light of the restaurant
 I smiled and I got up to go
 I was hoping for a goodbye to hold
 
 But it was kind of like touching a ghost
 So I ran when I walked out
 
 (Refrain)
 
 I got in my car and I drove
 Over the bridge to the coast
 Wondering where does old love go
