[A] [Aadd11]
[A] [Aadd11]
[A]Poison oak, some boyhood bravery[Aadd11]
When the [A]telephone was a tin can on a string [Aadd11]
And I fe[Dmaj9]ll asleep with you still talking to me[E]
You said you weren't afraid t[A]o die[Aadd11]
[A] [Aadd11]
In p[A]olaroids you were dressed in women's clothes[Aadd11]
Were [A]you made ashamed,
why'd you lock them in the dra[Aadd11]wer?
Well I [Dmaj9]don't think that I ever loved you mo[E]re
Than when you[A] turned away
When you s[Aadd11]lammed the door
When you stole[Dmaj9] a car drove, towards Mexico [Bm11]
And you[A] wrote bad checks just to fill your arm[Aadd11]
I was yo[Dmaj9]ung enough, I still believed in w[Bm11]ar
[A]
[Asus2]
[A]
[Dmaj9]
[A]
[Asus2]
[A]
[Dmaj9]
[A] [Aadd11]
[E]But let the poets cry themselves to sleep[Dmaj9]
And all their[E] tearful words would turn back into steam[Dmaj9]
But me, I'm[A] a single cell on a serpent's [Aadd11]tongue
And there's a muddy fie[Dmaj9]ld where a garden was[Bm11]
And I'm glad you got away [A]
But I'm still stuck out here[Aadd11]
My clothes are s[Dmaj9]oaking wet from your b[Bm11]rother's tears
[A] [Aadd11]
[A] [Asus2]
[A] [Aadd11]
And I [E]never thought this life was possible[Dmaj9]
You're t[E]he yellow bird that I've been waiting for[Dmaj9]
The end of[A] paralysis I was a statuette [Aadd11]
Now I'm drunk as[Dmaj9] hell on a piano bench[Bm11]
And when [A]I press the keys it all gets reversed[Aadd11]
The sound of loneline[Dmaj9]ss makes me happier[Bm11]
[A] [Aadd11] [Dmaj9]
[A] [Aadd11] [Dmaj9]
[A] [Aadd11]
[A] [Aadd11] [A]
