E D D5# G
She took the oldsmobile out past Condor avenue
CM7 C D6
and she locked the car and stepped past
Em riff CM7
into rythmic quietude
Am/Asus4/Am Bm F# D G C
lights burning voice dry and hoarse
E D D5# G
i threw the screen day like a bastard back and forth
CM7 C D6 Em riff CM7
the chimes fell over each other i fell onto my knees
Am Bm F# D G C
the sound of car driving off made me feel diseased
-2ND chord sequence :
E5 G Am
a sick shouting like you hear at the fairground
E5 G Am
now i'm picking up to put away anything of yours that's still
E5 G Am
around I don't know what to do with your clothes or your letters
E5 D C G C
I'll make a whisper out of you...
