poison oak , some boyhood bravery
A Aadd11
when the telephone was a tin can on a string
Dmaj9 E
and i fell asleep with you still talking to me
A Aadd11
you said you weren’t afraid to die
A Aadd11
A Aadd11
in polaroids you were dressed in women’s clothes
A
were you made ashamed ,
Aadd11
why’d you lock them in the drawer?
Dmaj9 E
well i don’t think that i ever loved you more
A
than when you turned away
Aadd11
when you slammed the door
Dmaj9 Bm11
when you stole a car drove , towards mexico
A Aadd11
and you wrote bad checks just to fill your arm
Dmaj9 Bm11
i was young enough , i still believed in war

but let the poets cry themselves to sleep
E Dmaj9
and all their tearful words would turn back into steam
A Aadd11
but me , i’m a single cell on a serpent’s tongue
Dmaj9 Bm11
and there’s a muddy field where a garden was
A
and i’m glad you got away
Aadd11
but i’m still stuck out here
Dmaj9 Bm11
my clothes are soaking wet from your brother’s tears
A Aadd11
A Asus2
A Aadd11
E Dmaj9
and i never thought this life was possible
E Dmaj9
you’re the yellow bird that i’ve been waiting for
A Aadd11
the end of paralysis i was a statuette
Dmaj9 Bm11
now i’m drunk as hell on a piano bench
A Aadd11
and when i press the keys it all gets reversed
Dmaj9 Bm11
the sound of loneliness makes me happier
A Aadd11 Dmaj9
