Old 97's - Murder Or Heart Attack

[ E ]
and the hole
[ D ] [ A ]
in the screen is barely big enough
[ E ] [ D ] [ A ]
for you and not near enough for me to go
[ E ]
and the whole damn complicated
[ D ] [ A ]
situation could’ve been
[ E ] [ D ] [ A ] [ mute strings ]
avoided if i’d only shut the window

chorus :
[ A ] [ E ]
and i may be leavin’ myself open
[ A ] [ D ]
to a murder or a heart attack
[ A ] [ E ]
but i’m leavin’ the back door open
[ G ] [ D ]
’til you come back , ’til you come back
[ A ] [ E ]
and i may be movin’ myself closer
[ A ] [ D ]
to a real untimely end
[ A ] [ E ]
but i’m leavin’ the back door open
[ G ] [ D ]
’til you come home again ,
[ A ] [ E ] [ D ]
’til you come ho – ome again

and i told
the neighbors , i put pictures up
and handed out some flyers at the show
and the whole town speculating
situation could’ve been
avoided if i’d only shut the window

chorus

[ A ] [ E ]
and i may be leavin’ myself open

[ A ] [ E ]

’til you come back , ’til you come back
[ A ] [ E ]
and i may be movin’ myself closer
[ A ] [ D ]
to a real untimely end
[ A ] [ E ]
but i’m leavin’ the back door open
[ G ] [ D ]
’til you come home again ,
[ A ] [ E ] [ D ]
’til you come ho – ome again
