Poison oak, some boyhood bravery
A5 Aadd11
When the telephone was a tin can on a string
D5 E5
And I fell asleep with you still talking to me
A5 Aadd11
You said you weren't afraid to die
A5 Aadd11
A5 Aadd11
In polaroids you were dressed in women's clothes
A5
Were you made ashamed,
Aadd11
why'd you lock them in the drawer?
D5 E5
Well I don't think that I ever loved you more
A5
Than when you turned away
Aadd11
When you slammed the door
D5 Bm11
When you stole a car drove, towards Mexico
A5 Aadd11
And you wrote bad checks just to fill your arm
D5 Bm11
I was young enough, I still believed in war

But let the poets cry themselves to sleep
E5 D5
And all their tearful words would turn back into steam
A5 Aadd11
But me, I'm a single cell on a serpent's tongue
D5 Bm11
And there's a muddy field where a garden was
A5
And I'm glad you got away
Aadd11
But I'm still stuck out here
D5 Bm11
My clothes are soaking wet from your brother's tears
A5 Aadd11

And I never thought this life was possible
E5 D5
You're the yellow bird that I've been waiting for
A5 Aadd11
The end of paralysis I was a statuette
D5 Bm11
Now I'm drunk as hell on a piano bench
A5 Aadd11
And when I press the keys it all gets reversed
D5 Bm11
The sound of loneliness makes me happier
