Verse 1

[G]In the stick[Em]-count for the [C]song of knowing you're gone
[G]Glancing [Em]up at where you [C]lived when you lived here
[G]I see you [Em]suddenly a[C]live and nearly smiling
[G]Stop and [Em]hold my breath and [C]watch the way you used to be

Chorus

[D]The full moon makes[C] our faces shine[Em] like over-[G]ironed pol[C]yester
[D]Then disappears[C] behind the clouds
[Em]And leaves me [G]under empty rows[C] of night win[G]dows

Verse 2

[G]We could w[Em]alk to where these [C]streets get pulled together
[G]A blinking [Em]line with gravel [C]shoulders squared towards an end
[G]Where the [Em]radio re[C]sounds from doppling traffic
[G]Where the [Em]power lines steal [C]esses from the hourly news

Chorus

[D]De-pluralize[C] our casualties[Em] and drown the [G]generals out in [C]static
[D]We'd turn and watch[C] our city sprawl
[Em]And send us [G]signals in the glow[C] of night win[G]dows

Outro

[G]But you're [D]not[Bm] coming [C]home again
[G]And I [D]won't[Bm] ever [C]get to say
"Re[G]member how... I'm [D]sorry that... I [Bm]miss the way... Could [C]we..."

End on G
