Verse 1
D 
In the hands
G 
of someone else you'll thrive
A 
D 
Bm 
G 
A 
Me, I'm destined to border
D 
G 
A 
But at least this way we'll stay alive
D 
G 
A 
If demons die when you ignore them
G 
You and me in a room,
Bm 
A 
we take off from too soon
G 
Bm 
A 
As every ghost we can conjure
G 
I shouldn't resurrect this,
I should forget
A 
D 
Well, anyway, I open this year
Bm 
With thoughts of you coming here
G 
A 
And arriving with some kind of cure
D 
We can stare at the sun
Bm 
As it dives off the Oregon coast,
G 
A 
D 
A 
leaving us mostly alone
G 
D 
G 
A 
D 
Alone, mostly alone

It was that night in Monterey,
D 
G 
A 
we got closest to sober
D 
G 
A 
So by the end of that next day,
D 
G 
we had to admit it was over
A 
G 
Bm 
A 
G 
Bm 
A 
G 
The only thought that lingers
A 
D 
is that there was well anyway
I open the stains,
Bm 
writing down what I ought to say
G 
A 
D 
But the steam on the mirror fades,
leaving only my head
Bm 
Staring off like some shipwrecked ghost
G 
A 
D 
I'd rather be mostly alone
A 
Alone
G 
A 
D

A 
Em 
D 
Bm 
Our longings never coincided,
Em 
so we drowned them
D 
A 
Em 
with our past,
D 
Bm 
you were the surface for me.
A 
G 
If that ends sometime
A 
and I just might last
G 
I count you among  those
A 
D 
who have well anyway
I open this year
Bm 
with thoughts of you com ing here
G 
A 
And arriving with some kind of cure
D 
We can stare at the sun
Bm 
as it dives off the Oregon coast
G 
leave a mess
A 
D 
A 
G 
Mosty alone
D 
A 
Mosty alone
G 
A 
D 
G

D 
Mosty alone
G 
A 
You
