D          Bm              A          Bm
   Shoebox full of photos;    found a grainy mirror.

D         Bm                 A      Bm     G
   Sunken cheeks and slender hands.

D          Bm                A         Bm
   Grocery lists and carbon     copied letters offer

   silence for my small demands. Hey how'd you get so

    Got an armchair from your family home.

    Got your P.G. Wodehouse novels, and your telephone.

D            F#/D                 G         A
    Got your plates and stainless steel.

D            F#/D         G               A        G
    Got that way of never saying what you really feel: so
[Chorus 2]
D  A   G       D     A        G
an-chorless. A boat abandoned in some backyard.

D  A   G         D           A       G
An-chorless, the small town that you lived and died in.

            Don't want to live and die here.

D   A   Bm                A        G
