[Intro] Am G F C Am G F C [Verse 1]
Am         G            F        C
You were a phonograph, I was a kid

   Am         G               F      C
I sat with an ear close, just listening

      Am             G               F             C
I was there when the rain tapped her way down your face

           Am       G          F             C
You were a miracle, I was just holdin' your space
Am C G C Am C G C [Verse 2]
      Am         G                  F            C
Well, time has a way of throwing it all in your face

    Am           G            F          C
The past, she is haunted, the future is laced

Am             G              F         C
Heartbreak, ya know, drives a big black car

     Am             G              F          C
Swear I was in the back seat, just minding my own
Am C G C Am C G C [Chorus]
    G                                           C
And through the glass, the corn crows come like rain

            G                Am
They won't stay, they wont stay for

Em           C
Too long now

               G           Am
This could be all that we know...

    Dsus2
Of love and all
[Verse 3]
      Am         G       F        C
Well, you were a dancer, I was a rag

     Am         G              F          C
The song in my head, well, was all that I had

Am         G        F           C
Hope was a letter I never could send

Am         G          F           C
Love was a country we couldn't defend
Am C G C Am C G C [Bridge]
    G                 F                  C          G
And through the carnival we watch them go round and round

G                F                C               G
All we knew of home was just a sunset and some clowns, ohhhhhhh
[Verse 4]
      Am         G         F       C
Well, you were a magazine, I was a plain Jane

     Am             G          F           C
Just walking the sidewalks all covered in rain

Am            G        F            C
Love to just get into some of your stories

Am          G          F           C
Just me and all of my plain Jane glory
Am G F C
Am          G         F          C
Just me and all of my plain Jane glory
Am C G C Am C G C
Am  G  F    C
Heyayayayay

Am G F C
(Repeat through the end of the song.)
