Verse 1
Am                        D
I couldn't find quiet I went out in the rain
            G                  Em
I was just soakin' my head to unrattle my brain
Am                        D
Somebody said you disappeared in a crowd
            G             Em
I didn't understand then I don't understand now


Am        D
Am I the one you think about 
             G                               Em
When you're sitting in your faintin' chair drinking Pink Rabbits?
Am        D
Am I the one you think about 
             G                               Em
When you're sitting in your faintin' chair drinking Pink Rabbits?
       
 Am                C
And everybody was gone 
 Am                                               C
You were staring down the street 'cause you were tryin' not to crack up

Verse 2

 Am                            D
It wasn't like a rain, it was more like a sea
          G                          Em
I didn't ask for this pain, it just came over me
 Am                     D
I love a storm, but I don't love lightning
          G                    D
All the waters coming up so fast, it's frightening


Am        D
Am I the one you think about 
             G                               Em
When you're sitting in your faintin' chair drinking Pink Rabbits?
Am        D
Am I the one you think about 
             G                               Em
When you're sitting in your faintin' chair drinking Pink Rabbits?

 Am                C
And everybody was gone 
 Am                                               C
You were staring down the street 'cause you were tryin' not to crack

       Am
I was solid gold
       D     
I was in the fight
       G
I was coming back 
          Em
From what seemed like a ruin
    Am
I couldn't see 
      D 
You coming so far
       G
I just turn around 
     Em
And there you are

Am                             D
I'm so surprised you want to dance with me now
           G                            Em   
I was just getting used to living life without you around
Am                             D
I'm so surprised you want to dance with me now
           G                         Em
You always said I held you way too high off the ground


Am                       D
You didn't see me I was falling apart
         G                       Em
I was a white girl in a crowd of white girls in the park
Am                       D
You didn't see me I was falling apart
         G                       Em
I was a television version of a person with a broken heart

Am                       D
You didn't see me I was falling apart
         G                       Em
I was a white girl in a crowd of white girls in the park
Am                       D
You didn't see me I was falling apart
         G                       Em
I was a television version of a person with a broken heart


 Am                C
And everybody was gone 
 Am                                              C
You were staring down the street 'cause you were tryin' not to crack up
 Am                 C
Bona Drag was still on
Am                        C                              G   D
Now I only think about Los Angeles when the sound kicks out
Am                        C                              G   D  Am  C
Now I only think about Los Angeles when the sound kicks out
