[Verse]
N.C.
Lovely, lovely
N.C.
In your jeans, frenzy
N.C.
Another movie that I didn't watch with you
N.C.
Another movie and I'm gonna have to move
N.C.
That final terror is in your house somewhere
N.C.
Hiding in boxes, behind closed doorways
N.C.
Out from the forest adjacent to your garage
N.C.
I've seen its marks at the corner of your eyes
N.C.
Nothing works
N.C.
Nothing works for everyone
N.C.
Good stories are bad lives
N.C.
Good stories are bad lives
[Chorus]
E
Take your hands off your neck and hold
B
On to the ghost of my body
E C#m
You know that good lives make bad stories
G#m A
You can text me
E
When punching mattresses gets old
B E
Don't think it'll always be this way
C#m
Not comforted by anything I say
G#m A F#m A E
We were wrecks before we crashed into each other

N.C.
Such a good idea
N.C.
If it turns you on
N.C.
We have breakdowns
N.C.
And sometimes we don't have breakdowns

N.C.
I want to hear you going psycho
N.C.
If you're going psycho I wanna hear
N.C.
Every conversation just ends with you screaming
E A E
Not even words, just ah-ah-ah-ahh, ooh ohh hey!

[Verse]
E A E
Look out, Mama, there's a white boat coming up the river
A E
With a big red beacon, and a flag, and a man on the rail
A
I think you'd better call John
G#m A
Because it don't look like they're here to deliver the mail
G#m A
And it's less than a mile away
G#m A
I hope they didn't come to stay
G#m A
It's got numbers on the side and a gun
B
And it's making big waves

[Verse 2]
E A E
Daddy's rifle in my hand felt reassuring
A E
He said, Red means run, son, numbers add up to nothing
A G#m A
But when the first shot hit the docks, I saw it coming
G#m A
Raised my rifle to my eye
G#m A
Never stopped to wonder why
G#m
Then I saw black
A B
And my face splashed in the sky
[Instrumental break]

Don't worry

You and me won't be alone no more

You and me won't be alone no more
