like the memory from your mother's house from before you got too old
E5                       A5                   C5                   E5

D5                      A5                    G5              A5
the words I say can be silver, but what's left unsaid can be gold
Am                (slide or hammer on G string from 2 to 4)
so get to know me once I go away

E5

E5              A5                   C5               E5
maybe 'cause I come from such an empty-hearted town
E5              A5                   C5               E5
or maybe 'cause some love of mine had really let me down
D5                      A5             G5              A5
but the only time I am lonely is when others are around
Am                (slide or hammer on G string from 2 to 4)
I just never end up knowing what to say

E5

E5              A5                   C5               E5
we need words to be put to what we do not understand
D5                      A5                    G5              A5
while you lean into the echoes and you do not raise a hand
Am                (slide or hammer on G string from 2 to 4)
oh woman, help me see it like it is

C5                                       G5
