Verse 1
(G major) She was a (D major) real royal lady,
true (G major) patron of the arts
She said the (A major) best country singers
die in the (B minor) back of classic cars (G major)
So if I (D major) ever got too hungry
for a suitcase (G major) or guitar
To think of (D major) them all (A major) alone in the dark (D major)
(B minor) So I (D major) laid some nights beside her
in a (G major) bed made for a queen
(A major) She said I kissed her different,
that all the (B minor) men her age were mean (G major)
Gave me (D major) anything I wanted,
oh, the (G major) generosity
I took all (D major) that I (A major) could, it was (D major) free
Now the sky is a torn up denim and the
(G major) clouds are just splattered paint
It?s a (A major) room I?m renovating,
it?s a (B minor) name I got to change (G major)
If I get (D major) out of California I?m going
(G major) back to my home state
To tell them (D major) all that I (A major) made
a mis (D major) take
Verse 2
And I keep looking for that (G major)
blindfold faith
Lighting candles to a (A major) cynical saint
Who wants the (D major) last laugh at the (A major) fly
trapped in the (B minor) windowsill (G major) tape
You can (A major) go right out of your
mind trying to escape
From the pan (D major) icked (A major) para (F sharp major) dox of (G major) day to day
If you can?t under (A major) stand something then it?s

Interlude 1
best to be afraid
(D major) (A major) (B minor) (G major) (D major) (A major) (B minor) (G major)
Verse 3
(D major) The whole world,
it loves you if you are a chic (G major) chameleon
(A major) Intersecting circles she could
(B minor) hang with anyone (G major)
But when (D major) conducting business she would
(G major) lie about where she?s from
Saying, (D major) "Life is how it (A major) is, not how it was" (D major) (A major)
(D major) I learned to listen,
felt like (G major) I was back at school
(A major) She?d talk forever about the
(B minor) phases of the moon (G major)
Saying, (D major) "Everything is a cycle,
you?ve got to (G major) let it come to you
And when it (D major) does,
you will (A major) know what to (D major) do"
(A major) Without (D major) even knowing I
guess I (G major) took her advice
(A major) Painted her front door,
it seemed a (B minor) suitable goodbye (G major)
(D major) It?s not that often but I
(G major) think of her sometimes
Just something (D major) quaint,
a couple (A major) ships in the (D major) night
Verse 4
And they keep moving at a (G major) glacial pace
Turning circles in a (A major) memory maze
I made a (D major) new cast of the (A major) death mask that
is going to (B minor) cov er my face (G major)
I had to (A major) change the combination
to the safe (D major)
(A major) Hide it all (D major) be (A major) hind a wall, (F sharp major) let (B minor) people wait (G major)
And never (A major) trust a heart that is so bent
Outro 1
it can?t break
(D major) (A major) (B minor) (G major) (D major) (A major) (D major) (G major)
(B minor) (G major)
