Verse 1
GEmC
In the stick-count for the song of knowing you're gone
GEmC
Glancing up at where you lived when you lived here
GEmC
I see you suddenly alive and nearly smiling
GEmC
Stop and hold my breath and watch the way you used to be
Chorus
DCEmGC
The full moon makes our faces shine like over-ironed polyester
DC
Then disappears behind the clouds
EmGCG
And leaves me under empty rows of night windows
Verse 2
GEmC
We could walk to where these streets get pulled together
GEmC
A blinking line with gravel shoulders squared towards an end
GEmC
Where the radio resounds from doppling traffic
GEmC
Where the power lines steal esses from the hourly news
Chorus
DCEmGC
De-pluralize our casualties and drown the generals out in static
DC
We'd turn and watch our city sprawl
EmGCG
And send us signals in the glow of night windows
Outro
GDBmC
But you're not coming home again
GDBmC
And I won't ever get to say
GDBmC
"Remember how... I'm sorry that... I miss the way... Could we..."
End on G
