Intro (x2): A Dsus2

Verse:
A                             Dsus2
Poison oak, some boyhood bravery
       A                                Dsus2
When the telephone was a tin can on a string
     Gbm                                            E
And I fell asleep with you still talking to me
                       A              Dsus2
You said you weren't afraid to die

Interlude: A Dsus2

    A                                       Dsus2
In polaroids you were dressed in women's clothes
        A                                           Dsus2
Were you made ashamed, why'd you lock them in the drawer?
   Gbm                                    E
Well I don't think that I ever loved you more

Chorus:
                A
Than when you turned away
            Dsus2
When you slammed the door
          Gbm                          E
When you stole a car drove, towards Mexico
          A                       Dsus2
And you wrote bad checks just to fill your arm
       Gbm                     E
I was young enough, I still believed in war

Interlude (x2): A Dsus2

Verse 2:
E                                    Gbm
But let the poets cry themselves to sleep
E                                                 Gbm
And all their tearful words would turn back into steam


               A                Dsus2
But me, I'm a single cell on a serpent's tongue
               Gbm                   E
And there's a muddy field where a garden was
                 A
And I'm glad you got away
                Dsus2
But I'm still stuck out here
                Gbm                    E
My clothes are soaking wet from your brother's tears

Interlude (x2): A Dsus2

Bridge:
E                                       Gbm
And I never thought this life was possible
E                                               Gbm
You're the yellow bird that I've been waiting for
              A                Dsus2
The end of paralysis I was a statuette
          Gbm                  E
Now I'm drunk as hell on a piano bench
            A                     Dsus2
And when I press the keys it all gets reVersed
              Gbm                E
The sound of loneliness makes me happier
