Verse 2
A
In Polaroids you were dressed
Dsus2
in women's clothes
A
Were you made ashamed,
Dsus2
why'd you lock them in the drawer?

Well I don't think that I ever loved you more
Chorus 1

Than when you turned away
Dsus2
When you slammed the door
D/F#
When you stole the car
E7sus4
drove towards Mexico
A
And you wrote bad checks
Dsus2
just to fill your arm

I was young enough,
E7sus4
I still believed in war

Well let the poets cry themselves to sleep

But me I'm a single cell
Dsus2
on a serpents tongue

There's a muddy field
E7sus4
where a garden was

And I'm glad you got away

But I'm still stuck out here

My clothes are soaking wet
E7sus4
from your brothers tears

The sound of loneliness makes me happier
