D5                                   E5
You look so good in the clothes of a poser
D5                                   A5
And when you smiled all the kids fell apart here
D5                                   E5
I know a place where it's warm and it's dry, dear
D5
Let me take you there

D5                                    E5
North of the river all the streets are the same
D5                                    A5
We can pretend that they don't know our name
D5                                    E5
And the heat is turned all the way to full
D5
So don't pretend that you don't feel the pull

B5
I am trying to say
D5
What I want to say
B5
Without having to say
D5           A5
"I love you"

You look so good in the shoes of an outcast
I kissed your throat every time they said it wouldn't last
But then I knew you, I knew you, I knew you
I really knew you

We fell apart in the parties of the empty heart
We danced the junkies in the shadows of bad modern art
We clicked our heels and we wished we were home
One more tab and your silk hits the chrome

[Chorus 2x]

D5                                    A5
Springs comes in when I'm rolling up another one
I draw the curtains in the glare of the same old sun
We are collapsed in the act of just being here
Three blues, two greens and a beer...
We are collapsed in the act of just being here
Three blues, two greens and a beer...

[Chorus 2x]
