A#5                         F5
I caught you caterwauling, giving grief
G5                              Dm
thought you were cannon-balling after me
A7                       F5  A7  A#5      
I let your actions speak for themselves
C               Dm
and wished you well

A#5                     F5
but you're a mirror I cannot avoid
G5                          Dm
strung out and jittery and paranoid
A7                   F5    A7   A#5       
a leaky battery that can't keep charged
C           G5  A#5  C5
get in the car 

F5                 Dm
and say what you mean
   A#5      C5      F5
explain yourself to me 
G5                     Dm                       C     Dsus4-Am7-Gsus4
and I'll try not to judge you more than you would

F5       Dm    
let me help 
  A#5     C5     F5  
I promise not to tell
G5              Dm             C      Em6-Embb5 
like anyone's asking or anyone should

Break(Verse): A#5, F5, G5, Dm, A7, F5 A7 A#5, C, Dm

A#5                        F5
first time I met you I was full of fear
G5                         Dm
knew that eventually you'd disappear
A7                               F5   A7  A#5  
just when I needed you, you'd to burn to smoke
C           G5  A#5  C5
and off you go

F5        Dm    
just come back
    A#5   C5      F5
and peel away the mask
G5              Dm                  C     Dsus4-Am7-Gsus4
lay here beside me and open your eyes
F5        Dm     
take it back 
     A#5  C5        F5
your dignity, your tact
G5               Dm                      C    Em6-Embb5 
turn back to the person you tried to let die

A#5                            F5
I caught you nesting with your analog
G5                       Dm
glassy eyed from kissing poison frogs
A7                 F5     A7   A#5   
becoming infinite against his couch
C           G5  A#5  C5
open your mouth 

F5       Dm
say the words
    A#5      C5       F5
you used to wish you heard
G5               Dm                  C    Dsus4-Am7-Gsus4
back when you focused enough to be good

F5            Dm  
and if you're gone 
   A#5     C5      F5
an endless false alarm
G5                Dm                     C    Dsus4-Am7-Gsus4
just remember I loved you as long as I could
