Am  G  (x2)

Am (x02210@1)                 G (320003@1)She fed me strawberries
                        Am (x02210@1)And freezer-burned ice cream
                    E (022100@1)I said "Goodbye, I guess"
                   F (133211@1)She lifted up her dress
                  D7 (xx0212@1)And so I must confess

We made out one more
 Eb7 (x32310@4)  D (xx0232@1)    Eb7 (x32310@4)    D (xx0232@1)Time before I left for good
     Eb7 (x32310@4)       D (xx0232@1)She thought I'd come back
 Eb7 (x32310@4) Bb (x1333x@1)             F (133211@1)             E (022100@1)But I wouldn't want to seem like other guys

Am (x02210@1)               G (320003@1)A book-and-record love
                     Am (x02210@1)We sat and read our books
                       E (022100@1)Between those longing looks
                   F (133211@1)Compounded by our fear
                      D7 (xx0212@1)My tongue inside her ear

My tongue inside her
 Eb7 (x32310@4)  D (xx0232@1)      Eb7 (x32310@4)  D (xx0232@1)In the basement of her mother's
 Eb7 (x32310@4)       D (xx0232@1)     Eb7 (x32310@4)House where we once taped the
 Bb (x1333x@1)                 F (133211@1)         E (022100@1)First three sides of Sandanista! for my car

C (x32010@1)      D (xx0232@1)            G (320003@1)        G/f#       Em7
 We were looking for ourselves and found each other
 C/B (x2555x@1)  C (x32010@1)         D (xx0232@1)             G (320003@1)       G/f#   Em7
 In the car, it was rare to do much more than simply mess around
C/B (x2555x@1)   C (x32010@1)         D (xx0232@1)          G (320003@1)G/f#  Em7
 In the car, it was mostly mutual   masturbation
     C/B (x2555x@1)     C (x32010@1)          D (xx0232@1)                  Am (x02210@1)And though we spoke of penetration, I'd have to wait
                            G (320003@1)For someone else to try it out

Am  G  (x3)

Am (x02210@1)             G (320003@1)Once I had this dream
                        Am (x02210@1)where I slept with her mom
                      E (022100@1)Unless I've got this wrong
              F (133211@1)A secret all along
                       D7 (xx0212@1)Unless she hears this song

Unless she hears it
 Eb7 (x32310@4)D (xx0232@1)    Eb7 (x32310@4)    D (xx0232@1)On a tape inside her car
      Eb7 (x32310@4)   D (xx0232@1)     Eb7 (x32310@4)With her new husband and she
 Bb (x1333x@1)             F (133211@1)                  E (022100@1)Turns to him and says "I think that's me"

C (x32010@1)          D (xx0232@1)            G (320003@1)        G/f#       Em7
 In the car, we were looking for ourselves but found each other
 C/B (x2555x@1)  C (x32010@1)            D (xx0232@1)         G (320003@1)    G/f#  Em7
 In the car, we groped for excuses not to be   alone anymore
C/B (x2555x@1)   C (x32010@1)          D (xx0232@1)             G (320003@1)      G/f#        Em7
 In the car, we were waiting for our lives to start their endings
 C/B (x2555x@1)  C (x32010@1)          D (xx0232@1)          C (x32010@1)In the car, we were never making love
         D (xx0232@1)          C (x32010@1)We were never making love
         D (xx0232@1)          G (320003@1)End riff
 We were never making love
