    A (x02220@1)			    Dsus2In (xx0230@1)polaroids you were dressed in women's clothes
        A (x02220@1)			    Dsus2Were (xx0230@1)you made ashamed, why'd you lock them in the drawer? 
   F#m (244222@1)			  EWell (022100@1)I don't think that I ever loved you more
                A (x02220@1)Than when you turned away
            Dsus2 (xx0230@1)When you slammed the door
	  A (x02220@1)	     Dsus2When (xx0230@1)you stole a car drove, towards Mexico 
          A (x02220@1)	  Dsus2And (xx0230@1)you wrote bad checks just to fill your arm
       F#m (244222@1)       EI (022100@1)was young enough, I still believed in war

E (022100@1)		     F#mBut (244222@1)let the poets cry themselves to sleep
E (022100@1)				  F#mAnd (244222@1)all their tearful words would turn back into steam


               A (x02220@1)Dsus2But (xx0230@1)me, I'm a single cell on a serpent's tongue
	       A (x02220@1)   Dsus2And (xx0230@1)there's a muddy field where a garden was
 		 AAnd (x02220@1)I'm glad you got away 
		Dsus2But (xx0230@1)I'm still stuck out here
		F#m (244222@1)       E (022100@1)
My clothes are soaking wet from your brother's tears


A (x02220@1)Dsus2A		Dsus2 (xx0230@1)
E (022100@1)			F#mAnd (244222@1)I never thought this life was possible
E (022100@1)				F#m (244222@1)You're the yellow bird that I've been waiting for


              A (x02220@1)       Dsus2 (xx0233@1)The end of paralysis I was a statuette 
	  A (x02220@1)     Dsus2Now (xx0230@1)I'm drunk as hell on a piano bench
            A (x02220@1)	  Dsus2And (xx0230@1)when I press the keys it all gets reversed
	      F#m (244222@1) EThe (022100@1)sound of loneliness makes me happier
