D = 000200
G = 555400
D/F# = 400000
Bm7 = you can do it tradionally on the 2nd fret but since you're up there for the G on the fifth fretI like the Bm7 on the 7th fret x77777 (I use my 2nd and 3rd fingers) Chord placement is exact based on
recording.
Intro: A Em7 D Asus (2x)
Asus2 Em7 A pillow lays on cold cement, a blanket by a broken vent D Asus2 She’s there a while, and then she’s gone
I’m away for weeks, arrive at night
Em7 D Asus2 She hears my steps, turns off the light and runs
No mind at all, more space than I need
Em7 D Asus2 It’s just me among the weeds, among the ghosts, among the leaves
We’ve never met but she’s a girl
Em7 Romance paper books D Asus2 The floor is covered in long blonde curls G D/F# On afternoons I walk the graves Bm7 Asus G The rusted cars, the mine shaft caves D/F# Bm7 Asus2 See a girl sadly unkempt, a child of neglect G D/F# Under moons I pass the tombs Bm7 Asus G Cross the highways, smell the fumes D/F# Bm7 Asus2 See a girl frighteningly gaunt, somebody didn’t want Em7 Asus2 How do I tell her I don’t care, if she sleeps downstairs?
Bridge: Em7 D Asus (2x)
I see her on my errand runs
Em7 D Asus2 Looking nervous like a young Mia Farrow
Walking ‘long the gas stops
Em7 D Asus2 Window browsing pawn shops, guns, bows and arrows
Up on past the Halfway house
Em7 D Asus2 Past the signs Eighty South, Buttercup and Carrows
Drinking Wild Irish Rose
Em7 D Asus2 At the dead end down the road, sleeping with the sparrows G D/F# When evening comes I play guitar Bm Asus2 For the planets and the stars G D/F# Bm7 Asus2 I leave the porch light on like I do when I’m gone G D/F# Winter, spring, summer, fall Bm Asus2 Basement’s yours, have a ball Em7 Asus2 There’s always room for you there… really baby I don’t care
Outro: Em7 D Asus2 (4x)
