Lua
By Bright Eyes
Dx2, Gx2 (x2)
D D G G
I know that it is freezing but I think we have to walk
D D G G
I keep waving at the taxis; they keep turning their lights off
Em Em A A
But Julie knows a party at some actor's west side loft
Em G Em A D D
Supplies are endless in the evening; by the morning they'll be gone.
D D G G
When everything is lonely I can be my own best friend
D D G G
I get a coffee and the paper; have my own conversations
Em Em A A
With the sidewalk and the pigeons and my window reflection
Em G Em A D D
The mask I polish in the evening, by the morning looks like shit.
G G D D D
And I know you have a heavy heart; I can feel it when we kiss
G G D A A7
So many men stronger than me have thrown their backs out trying to lift it
G Bm D A G G
But me I'm not a gamble you can count on me to split
Em G Em A D D
The love I sell you in the evening, by the morning won't exist.

D D G G
You're looking skinny like a model with your eyes all painted black
D D G G
You just keep going to the bathroom always say you'll be right back
Em Em A A
Well it takes one to know one, kid, I think you've got it bad
Em G Em A D D
But what's so easy in the evening, by the morning is such a drag.
D D G G
I've got a flask inside my pocket we can share it on the train
D D G
If you promise to stay conscious I will try and do the same
Em Em A A
We might die from medication, but we sure killed all the pain
Em G Em A D D
But what was normal in the evening, by the morning seems insane.
G G D D
And I'm not sure what the trouble was that started all of this
G G D A A7
The reasons all have run away but the feeling never did
G Bm D A G
It's not something I would recommend, but it is one way to live
Em G Em A D
Cause what is simple in the moonlight, by the morning never is
Em G Em A Bm
What's so simple in the moonlight, now is so complicated
Em G Em A
What's so simple in the moonlight, so simple in the moonlight,
Em G D
So simple in the moonlight..
