[Intro]
E Asus2 A
E Asus2 A
[Verse 1]
Esus Asus2 *
The way your smell lingers on my clothes
Esus
Creeps up, eats me inside out
Asus2 *
I couldn't make you stay
C#m7
Shoot up in the trailer
Bsus4
I couldn't make you stay here
[Verse 2]
Esus Asus2 *
Pebbles fall from under your toes
Esus
Jumped up, fucked up always
Asus2 *
Like you were seeing something
C#m7
Like you saw something beau - tiful
Bsus4
Couldn't make you stay here
[Chorus 1]
E Asus2
Dead skin, piercing light
E
Through my eyes, through my spine
Asus2
Catch a glimpse of a flicker and I try
Bsus4 Asus2 C#m7
And you are not here in my bed tonight
Asus2
You never will be
Bsus4
You never will be, Tommy
E Asus2 A
E Asus2 A
[Bridge]
Asus2
And I forgot your eyes
Amaj9sus/G#
And I forgot your hair
Asus2 Bsus4
And I forgot you entirely
Asus2
The fall from Diamond Gap
Amaj9sus/G#
The ravages of time
E Bsus4
If you don't jump then I'll be fine
[Chorus 2]
Esus Asus2 *
Dead skin, piercing light
Esus
Through my eyes, through my spine
Asus2 *
Catch a glimpse of a flicker and I try
E Asus2
Dead skin, piercing light
C#m7
Through my eyes, through my spine
Bsus4
Catch a glimpse of a flicker and I try
Asus2 Bsus4 C#m7
And you are not here in my bed tonight
Asus2
You never will be
Amaj9sus/G#
You never will be
Asus2
You never will be
Amaj9sus/G#
You never will be
[Outro]
Asus2
And you won't work in the factory
Bsus4
I'll stop stripping
Asus2
And I won't leave if you won't leave
Bsus4 E
If you don't leave, Tommy
