Casiotone for the Painfully Alone (CFTPA) was the beats-and-keys solo project of singer, songwriter and Chicago resident, Owen Ashworth.

Daytrotter session version.
I like to do it with G and Am barred, but it still sounds good when they aren't.
C G Am F
C G
Back in town with blown out lungs
Am
& shot ear drums & misplaced kisses
F
& someone who misses
C G Am F
Who misses me in kansas
C G
The second I got out of the van
Am
I saw you giving your cash to the doorman
I saw the x on your hand
F
& I knew you were the one
Or I knew you'd understand
C G
Or oh, I wish we could have talked all night
Am
We had to be in Illinois by daylight
F
& what I wouldn't give to be your man
But I can't break up the band
C G
& Jeanne, there must be more than letters & phone calls
Am F
So say you'll come see Maine when the snow falls
C G Am F
Just say you'll come see Maine when the snow falls
C G Am F
C G
There's kissing in Kansas, but that's not home
Am
& we sigh when we're on the phone
But the voice in my ear
F
Says it wouldn't be same if you moved here
C
But it's just miles
G
It's only miles
Am
It's just miles
F
& miles & miles & miles & miles
C
& miles & miles & miles & miles
G
& miles & miles & miles & miles
Am
& miles & miles & miles & miles
F
& miles & miles & miles & miles
End on C
