Intro -x2-: Em C D

Verse 1:
Em                  C         D
Make a hole with a gun perpendicular
Em                    C         D
To the name of this town in a desktop globe
E                Am G    C  G
Exit wound in a foreign nation
D                        C            D
Showing the home of the one this was written for
Em                  C      D
My apartment looks upside down from there
Em                  C        D
Water spirals the wrong way out the sink
E                   Am  G     C G
And her voice is a backwards record
D                      C      D
It's like a whirlpool and it never ends

Chorus:
G    C        D                       C
Ana Ng and I are getting old and we still haven't walked
G           Bb               C    D
In the glow of each other's majestic presence
G       C       D                      C
Listen Ana hear my words, they're the ones you would think
G           Bb              C      D
I would say if there was a me for you

Verse 2:
Em               C D
All alone at the '64 World's Fair
Em                      C          D
Eighty dolls yelling "Small girl after all"
E                 Am   G C G
Who was at the Dupont Pavilion?
D                        C             D
Why was the bench still warm? Who had been there?
Em                     C            D
Or the time when the storm tangled up the wire
Em                   C          D
To the horn on the pole at the bus depot
E                       Am   G  C  G
And in the back of the edge of hearing
D                              C          D
These are the words that the voice was repeating:

Chorus:
G    C        D                       C
Ana Ng and I are getting old and we still haven't walked
G           Bb               C    D
In the glow of each other's majestic presence
G       C       D                      C
Listen Ana hear my words, they're the ones you would think
G           Bb              C      D
I would say if there was a me for you

Bridge:
C           D              G        D      C
When I was driving once I saw this painted on a Bridge:
C                 D      G       D         C
"I don't want the world, I just want your half"

Verse:
Em                  C           D
They don't need me here, and I know you're there
Em                    C            D
Where the world goes by like the humid air
E                     Am G   C  G
And it sticks like a broken record
D                         Am G   C  G
Everything sticks like a broken record
D                    Am G   C    G
Everything sticks until it goes away
D                     C          D
And the truth is, we don't know anything

Chorus: -x2-
G    C        D                       C
Ana Ng and I are getting old and we still haven't walked
G           Bb               C    D
In the glow of each other's majestic presence
G       C       D                      C
Listen Ana hear my words, they're the ones you would think
G           Bb              C      D
I would say if there was a me for you
Bb  C
