EI'm (022100@1)counting out dollars while I limp to your brownstone.
      A (x02220@1)                       AmI (x02210@1)can just barely cover what I need to get back home.
        F#mAnd (244222@1)I know we're allowed indiscretion in our lives,
                B7but (x21202@1)I've been making mine count every night for a while.
        EI (022100@1)keep deleting your number and name from my cell phone,
       A (x02220@1)                      Ambut (x02210@1)I call every day; that's as far as my act goes.
         F#mWhat (244222@1)you have helps me turn down the noise that I make,
             B7but (x21202@1)when it stops it just pokes me and keeps me awake.
     EMy (022100@1)friends always warned about living cliches
        A (x02220@1)                         Ambut (x02210@1)my friends aren't there when I meet you these days.
         F#mI (244222@1)count people and street signs from the back of your car
         B7and (x21202@1)then skip back excited to wherever they are.
 riff 1
I take risks in the stall while they talk by the bar.

I won't go back outside 'til my memory starts

erasing itself into something less brutal,

some beautiful bullshit I pretend to belong to.
        EFor (022100@1)as long as the truth tucks itself into bed,
         A (x02220@1)                      Amand (x02210@1)the beat of my heart and the heat of my breath
         F#mkeep (244222@1)me hopeful and distant and proud of myself,
           B7 (x21202@1)                                        EI'll (022100@1)keep ringing your bell every night around twelve.
