[Intro]
Bb/F Gm C7sus2 Bbadd11/Eb
Bb/F Gm
C7sus2
[Verse 1]
Bbadd11/Eb Bb/F
I went with you up to
Gm
The place you grew up in
C7sus2 Bbadd11/Eb
We spent a week in the cold
Bb/F
Just long enough to
Gm
“Walden” it with you
C7sus2 Bbadd11/Eb
Any longer, it would have got old
Bb/F
Singing “Ace of Spades” when Lemmy died
Gm C7sus2 Bbadd11/Eb
But nothing’s changed, L.A.’s all right
Bb/F Gm
Sleeping in my bed again, and getting in my head
C7sus2 Bbadd11/Eb
And then walk around the reservoir
[Chorus]
Bb/F Gm C7sus2 Bbadd11/Eb
You, you must havebeen looking for me
Bb/F Gm
Sending smoke signals
C7sus2 Bbadd11/Eb
Pelicans circling
Gm Bb/F Bbadd11/Eb
Burning trash out on the beach
[Bridge]
Bb/F Gm C7sus2 Bbadd11/Eb
[Verse 2]
Bb/F
One of your eyes is
Gm
Always halfshut
C7sus2 Bbadd11/Eb
Something happened when you were a kid
Bb/F
I didn’t know you then
Gm
And I’ll never understand
C7sus2 Bbadd11/Eb
Why it feels like I did
Bb/F Gm
“How Soon Is Now” in an eighty’s sedan
C7sus2 Bbadd11/Eb
You slept inside of it because your dad
Bb/F Gm
Lived in a campground in the back of a van
C7sus2 Bbadd11/Eb
You said that song will creep you out until you’re dead
[Chorus]
Bb/F Gm C7sus2 Bbadd11/Eb
And you, you must havebeen looking for me
Bb/F Gm
Sending smoke signals
C7sus2 Bbadd11/Eb
Pelicans circling
Gm Bb/F Bbadd11/Eb
Burning trash out on the beach
[Bridge]
Bb/F Gm C7sus2 Bbadd11/Eb
[Verse 3]
Bb/F
I want to live at
Gm
The Holiday Inn
C7sus2 Bbadd11/Eb
Where somebody else makes the bed
Bb/F
We’ll watch TV while
Gm
The lights on the street
C7sus2 Bbadd11/Eb
Put all the stars to death
Bb/F
It’s been on my mind since Bowie died
Gm C7sus2 Bbadd11/Eb
Just checking out to hide from life
Bb/F Gm
And all of our problems, I’m gonna solve ‘em
C7sus2 Bbadd11/Eb
With you riding shotgun, speeding, ‘cause fuck the cops
[Chorus]
Bb/F Gm C7sus2 Bbadd11/Eb
You, you must havebeen looking for me
Bb/F Gm
Sending smoke signals
C7sus2 Bbadd11/Eb
Pelicans circling
Gm Bb/F Bbadd11/Eb
Burning trash out on the beach
[Bridge]
Bb/F Gm C7sus2 Bbadd11/Eb Bb/F
I buried a hatchet
[Verse 4]
Gm
It’s coming up lavender
C7sus2
The future’s unwritten
Bbadd11/Eb
The past is a corridor
Bb/F Gm
I’m at the exit looking back through the hall
C7sus2
You are anonymous
Bbadd11/Eb
I am a concrete wall
[Outro (Fade Out)]
