Intro: C E7 Amadd9 Fmaj7 G7 
 
Verse 1:
        C               E7
Oh, the last time I saw Paul
      Amadd9       F                G7
I was horrible and almost let him in
      C                      E7
But I stopped and caught the wall
       Amadd9
And my mouth got dry
   F             G7                 C
So all I did was take him for a spin
 
Verse 2:
         C                E7
Yeah, we hopped inside my car
      Amadd9            Fmaj7                   G7
And I drove in circles 'round the freight train yard
       C                     E7
And he turned the headlights off
        Amadd9            F
Then he pulled the bottle out
            G                 C
And then he showed me what is love
 
Chorus:
             Fmaj7
I'll be your morning bright goodnight shadow machine
             C
I'll be your record player, baby, if you know what I mean
             Fmaj7
I'll be your real tough cookie with the whiskey breath
          C
I'll be a killеr and a thriller and the cause of our dеath
 
Verse 3:
       C              Em
In the blossom of the months
      Am                F               C
I was sure that I'd get driven off with thought
     C                Em
So I swallowed all of it
     Am                 F                G            C
As I realized there was no one who could kiss away my xxxx
 
Chorus:
             Fmaj7
I'll be your morning bright goodnight shadow machine
             C
I'll be your record player, baby, if you know what I mean
             Fmaj7
I'll be your real tough cookie with the whiskey breath
          C
I'll be a killеr and a thriller and the cause of our dеath
 
Verse 4:
        C        E7              Am          F             G7
Paul, I know you said that you'd take me any way I came or went
         C                E7
But I'll push you from my brain
            Am
See, you're gentle, baby
F                    G              C
I couldn't stay, I'd only bring you pain
 
Outro:
           Fmaj7
I was your starry-eyed lover and the one that you saw
           C
I was your hurricane rider and the woman you'd call
                 Fmaj7
We were just two moonshiners on the cusp of a breath
              C
And I've been burning for you baby since the minute I left
