D F#m
My true love drowned in a dirty old pan
G D
Of oil that did run from the block
Bm G Em
Of a falcon sedan nineteen sixty nine
G D
The paper said '75
D*
There were no survivors
G D
None found alive
D F#m
Trees break the sidewaaaaaalk
G D
And the sidewalk skins my knees
Bm
There's glass in my thermos
G
And blood on my jeans
Bm G
Nickels and dimes of the fourth of july
Bm G
Roll off in a crooked line
To the chain-link lots
D*
where the red tails dive
D G
Oh how I forgot what it's like
Chorus:
D
Hey, when she sings, when she sings
Gmaj7
when she sings like she runs
Em
Moves like she runs
D
Hey, when she moves, when she moves
Gmaj7
when she moves like she runs
Em
Moves like she runs
D
Hey there, there’s such tender wolves
G
‘round town tonight
Em
Round the town tonight
D
Hey there, there’s such tender wolves
Gmaj7
‘round town tonight
Em
Round the town tonight
Verse:
D F#m
Hey pretty baby get high with me,
G D
We can go to my sisters if we say we'll watch the baby
Bm G
The look on your face yanks my neck on the chain
Bm
And I would do anything (I would do anything)
D*
To see you again
D G
So I’ve fallen behiiiiiind…
(Repeat Chorus)
Verse:
D F#m
Go on, go on scream and cry
G D
You're miles from where anyone will find you
Bm G
This is nothing new, no television crew
G D
They don't even put on the sirens
My nightgown sweeps the pavement
Please don't let him die
Oh how I forgot...
