VERSE I

Em D A

I got a postcard with an old address

Em D A

A picture of Houston, in a beat-up mess

Em A D

Just to remind me that it all went wrong

G A

Just to beat me up, just to turn me on

CHORUS

D Bm D Bm D Bm G A

Stray paper, stray paper, stray paper, burnin' in my hands

VERSE II

Em D A

Cigarettes in the glove box, with the classified ads

Em D A

Ashes and silver, worn into your hands

Em A D

"I gotta see you", on a bar napkin

G A

Gas station quarters, I got to see you again

CHORUS

VERSE III

Em D A

Somewhere there's a letter, that I never sent

Em D A

It used to read pretty, now it's empty as

Em A D

That night in the headlights, with the blankets pressed

G A

Was it somethin' to you, baby? Was it always just . . .

CHORUS (then repeat)

G A G A

Burnin' in my hands, burnin' in my hands

Em D A (Repeat 5 times) Em
