    F#m   Dmaj7        A     Bm
The phone slips from a loose grip
F#m        Dmaj7             A    Bm
Words were missed, then some apology
   F#m            Dmaj7 
I didn't want to tell you this
         A                   Bm               F#m
No, it's just some guy she's been hanging out with
        Dmaj7                 A           Bm
I don't know, the past couple weeks, I guess

F#m                Dmaj7
Thank you and hang up the phone
        A                       Bm
Let the funeral start, hear the casket close
          F#m         Dmaj7          A        Bm
Let's pin split-black ribbon to your overcoat

    F#m                 Dmaj7               A
The laughter pours from under doors in this house
             Bm                  F#m
I don't understand that sound no more
      Dmaj7             A    Bm
Seems artificial like a TV set

       Bm
Well Haligh Haligh Haligh Haligh
     A
This weight, it must be satisfied
    G
You offer only one reply
    A
You know not what you do
        Bm
But you tear and tear your hair from roots
     A
From that same head you have twice removed
      G
Now a lock of hair you said would prove
    A                              
Our love would never die, well hahaha

Bm

F#m        Dmaj7
I remember everything
    A                 Bm
The words we spoke on freezing South Street
    F#m                Dmaj7        A             Bm
And all those mornings watching you get ready for school

    F#m                Dmaj7
You combed your hair inside that mirror
            A                Bm
The one you painted blue and glued with jewelry tears
F#m                   Dmaj7                      A                Bm
Something about those bright colors would always make you feel better

F#m                   Dmaj7
But now we speak with ruined tongues
        A                   Bm
And the words we say aren't meant for anyone
F#m                 Dmaj7         A              Bm       
It's just a mumbled sentence to a passing acquaintance but there was once you

F#m                  Dmaj7
You said you hate my suffering
        A              Bm
And you understood and you'd take care of me
F#m                Dmaj7          A                   Bm
You'd would always be there, well where are you now?

Bm
Haligh, Haligh, Haligh, Haligh
    A
The plans were never finalized
    G
But left to hang like yarn and twine
    A
Dangling before my eyes

       Bm
As you tear and tear your hair from roots
     A
From that same head that you have twice removed
      G
Now a lock of hair you said would prove
    A
Our love would never die

      Bm
And I sing and sing of awful things
    A
The pleasure that my sadness brings
       G
And my fingers press onto the strings
    A
Yet another clumsy chord

Bm
Haligh, Haligh, an awful lie
     A
This weight will now be satisfied
          G
I'm gonna give you only one reply
  A
I know not who I am

      Bm
But I talk in the mirror
       A
To the stranger that appears
                      G
Our conversations are circles
           G
Always one sided
           A
Nothing is clear

          Bm
Except we keep coming back
        A
To this meaning that I lack
                         G
He says the choices were given
             G
Now you must live them
            A
Or just not live

                Bm
But do you want that?
