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 Outro (x4): A Dsus2 This arrangement is its contributor’s own interpretation, shared for private study, education and non-commercial use.
