Verse 1
(D major) Unsentimental, traveling around
(G major) Sure (D major) of myself, sure of it now
But (G major) you were stand (D major) ing
there so close to me
Like the future was supposed to be
In the aisles of the grocery
And the blocks uptown (G major)
(D major) I remember, re (G major) member (D major) it well
(G major) But if I'd for (D major) gotten, could (G major) you (D major) tell?
(G major) In the shadow of your first (D major) attack
I was questioning and looking back
(G major) You said, "Baby,
we don't (D major) speak of that"
Like a (G major) real ar (D major) istocrat

Verse 2
Compound to (D major) compound,
lazy (G major) (D major) and safe
Wanted (G major) to (D major) leave it, wanted to wait
(G major) When the taxi (A major) door was (D major) open wide
I pretended I was horrified
By the uniform and gloves outside
Of the courtyard gate (G major)
You're not (A major) a (D major) victim,
(G major) but (E minor) neither (F sharp minor) am I (A major)
Nostalgic for (D major) garbage,
(G major) desperate for (D major) time (F sharp minor) (A major)
I could blame it on your (D major) mother's hair (G major)
Or the colors that your (D major) father wears (A major)
But I know that I was (D major) never fair (G major)
You were always (D major) fine

(D major) mental,
(B minor) traveling (D major) around (G major)
Sure of (D major) myself, (B minor) sure of (D major) it now
You were standing there so close to me
Like the future was supposed to be (G major)
In the aisles of the (D major) grocery
And the block (G major) s up (D major) town (G major)
I re (D major) member, (G major) remember (F sharp minor) it well (E minor)
(A major) And (E minor) if I'd for (D major) gotten,

You were standing on an (D major) other track (G major)
Like a real ar (F sharp minor) istocrat
