Poison oak some boyhood bravery
A A2
when a telephone was a tin can on a string
A3 A4
i fell alseep you were still talking to me
A A2
you said you werent afraid to die
A A2
A A2
in polaroids you were dressed in womens clothes
A A2
where you made ashame, why'd you lock them in a drawer?
A3 A4
well, i dont think i ever loved you more
A A2
than when you turned away, when you slammed the door,
A3 A4
when you stole the car, drove towards mexico,
A A2
and you wrote bad checks , just to fill your arm
A3 A4
i was young enough, i still believed in wars.

A3 A4
well let those poets cry themselves to sleep
A3 A4
all their tearful words will turn back into steam
A A2
but me i'm a single cell on a serpents tounge
A3 A4
theres a muddy feld where a garden was
A A2
and i'm glad you got away
A3 A4
but i'm still stuck out here
A A2
my clothes are soaking wet from your brothers tears
A A2 A5 A A6 A2 x 2
A3 A4
and i never thought this life was possible
A3 A4
you're the yellow bird that i've been waiting for
A A2
the end of paralysis i was a statuette
A3 A4
now i'm drunk as hell at a piano bench
A A2
and when i press the keys it all gets reversed
A3 A4
the sound of loneliness, makes me happier
A A2 A5 A A6 A2 x 2 end on A
