Verse 1

G           Em             C
In the stick-count for the song of knowing you're gone
G        Em              C
Glancing up at where you lived when you lived here
G         Em        C
I see you suddenly alive and nearly smiling
G        Em                 C
Stop and hold my breath and watch the way you used to be


Chorus

D                  C               Em         G         C
The full moon makes our faces shine like over-ironed polyester
D              C                 
Then disappears behind the clouds
Em            G               C            G
And leaves me under empty rows of night windows


Verse 2

G         Em                 C
We could walk to where these streets get pulled together
G          Em               C
A blinking line with gravel shoulders squared towards an end
G         Em      C
Where the radio resounds from doppling traffic
G         Em                C
Where the power lines steal esses from the hourly news


Chorus

D           C              Em             G               C
De-pluralize our casualties and drown the generals out in static
D                  C
We'd turn and watch our city sprawl
Em          G                  C            G
And send us signals in the glow of night windows


Outro

G          D  Bm      C 
But you're not coming home again
G     D    Bm    C
And I won't ever get to say
   G                 D               Bm                    C
"Remember how... I'm sorry that... I miss the way... Could we..."


End on  G
