Capo 1

A5                         E5
I caught you caroling and giving grief
F#5                            C#5
Thought you were cannonballing after me
Ab5                          F#5 Ab5  A5       B5
Now that your actions speak for themselves
               C#5
And wished you well

A5                        E5
But you're a mirror I cannot avoid
F#5                        C#5
Strung out and jittery and paranoid
Ab5                   F#5   Ab5   A5      B5
A leaky battery that can't keep charged
           F#5  A5  B5
Get in the car 

E5                C#5
And say what you mean
  A5         B5       E5    F#5
Explain yourself to me 
                    C#5                     B5     C#5 - A5 - B5
and I'll try not to judge you more than you would
E5      C#5     A5       B5      E5     F#5
Let me help, I promise not to tell
              C#5              B5      Ab5 - B5 - C#5 - Ab5 - A5
Like anyone's asking or anyone should

Break: (Same strum pattern as verse)
A5 , E5 , F#5 , C#5 , Ab5 F#5 - Ab5 - A5 , B5 , C#5

A5                          E5
First time I met you I was full of fear
F#5                        C#5
Knew that eventually you'd disappear
Ab5                        F#5  Ab5 A5     B5
Just when I needed you to burn to smoke
            F#5  A5  B5
And off you go

E5         C#5        A5   B5       E5    F#5
Just come back and peel away the mess
            C#5                  B5     C#5 - A5 - B5
Lay here beside me and open your eyes
E5       C#5       A5    B5    E5      F#5
Take it back your dignity attacked
                 C#5                     B5   Ab5 - B5 - C#5 - Ab5 - A5
Turn back to the person you tried to let die

A5                              E5
I caught you nesting with your antelope
F#5                      C#5
Glassy eyes from kissing poison frogs
Ab5                 F#5    Ab5  A5     B5
Becoming infinite against his couch
          F#5   A5  B5
Open your mouth 

E5           C#5       A5       B5        E5     F#5
and say the words you used to wish you heard
              C#5                  B5     C#5 - A5 - B5
Back when you focused enough to be good


E5             C#5       A5       B5        E5     F#5
And if you're gone, an endless false alarm
                C#5                    B5     Ab5 - B5 - C#5 - Ab5 - A5
Just remember I loved you as long as I could
