Intro:
RE5

SOL    RE    FA#5    SIm  LA

SOL    RE    FA#7    SIm  LA

SOL                     RE 
 So long ago, I don't remember when
       FA#                          SIm    LA
That's when they say I lost my only friend
          SOL
Well they said she died easy 
     RE
of a broken heart disease
     FA#                           SIm   LA  
As I listened through the cemetery trees

SOL    RE    FA#7    SIm  LA

           SOL                   RE
I seen the sun coming up at the funeral at dawn
    FA#7                     SIm  LA
The long broken arm of human law
       SOL
Now it always seemed such a waste, 

she always had a pretty face
     FA#                               SIm   LA
So I wondered why she hung around this place

SOL        FA#7

   SOL
Hey
                     RE
Come on, try a little
                  MIm
Nothing is forever
                            LA
There's got to be something better than
             SOL
In the middle
                     RE
But me and Cinderella

We'll put it all together
MIm              LA
We can drive it home
             SOL    RE    FA#7    SIm  LA
With one headlight

                SOL                        RE
She said, "It's cold, it feels like Independence Day
      FA#7                         SIm   LA
And I can't break away from this parade"
            SOL
But there's got to be an opening
RE
Somewhere here in front of me
FA#7                              SIm   LA
Through this maze of ugliness and greed
               SOL
And I seen the sun up ahead 
       RE
at the county-line bridge
       FA#7                                SIm  LA
Saying all there's good and nothingness is dead
      SOL
We'll run until she's out of breath
    RE
She ran until there's nothing left
    FA#7                              SIm  LA  
She hit the end, it's just her window ledge

SOL        FA#7

   SOL
Hey
                     RE
Come on, try a little
                  MIm
Nothing is forever
                            LA
There's got to be something better than
             SOL
In the middle
                     RE
But me and Cinderella

We'll put it all together
MIm              LA
We can drive it home
             SOL    RE    FA#7    SIm  LA
With one headlight

SOL    RE    FA#7    SIm  LA

                    SOL
Well, this place is old, 
                     RE
it feels just like a beat up truck
           FA#7                           SIm  LA
I turn the engine, but the engine doesn't turn
               SOL
What smells of cheap wine, cigarettes
     RE
This place is always such a mess
    FA#7                               SIm  LA
Sometimes I think I'd like to watch it burn
        SOL                            RE
I'm so alone, and I feel just like somebody else
             FA#7                            SIm  LA
Man, I ain't changed, but I know I ain't the same
    SOL
But somewhere here in between
    RE
The city walls of dying dreams
  FA#7                                SIm  LA
I think her death, it must be killing me

SOLadd9        FA#7          SOL
            ...Hey, hey, hey

                     RE
Come on, try a little
                  MIm
Nothing is forever
                            LA
There's got to be something better than
             SOL
In the middle
                     RE
But me and Cinderella

We'll put it all together
MIm                  LA
 We can drive it home
             SOL    RE    MIm    LA
With one headlight...

SOL    RE    MIm    LA

One Headlight è un brano composto e inciso dal gruppo The Wallflowers, contenuto nell'album Bringing Down the Horse pubblicato nel 1996. Secondo disco di inediti per la rock band di Los Angeles, si rivela il loro apice musicale e commerciale dopo una vera e propria rivoluzione all'interno della formazione. La canzone è la principale artefice di tale successo ed è il secondo singolo estratto: scritta dal frontman Jakob Dylan, figlio del noto Bob, parla della "morte delle idee".
