(B minor)
Does he (E minor) kiss your
Verse 1
eyelids in the morning
when you start to raise your head?
And does he sing (B major) to you incessantly from the
space between your bed and wall?
Does he (E minor) walk around all day at school
with his feet inside your shoes?
Looking down (B major) every few steps to
pretend he walks with you
Oh, does he (E minor) know that place below your neck
that is your favorite to be touched?
And does he (B major) cry through broken sentences
like I love you far too much?
(A minor) Does he lay awake (D major) listen
(E minor) ing (G major) to your (C major) breath?
Wor (A minor) ried that you (D major) smoke
too many (G major) cigarettes (C major)
Is he cough (D major) ing now (E minor) on
a bathroom floor?
For every speck (D major) of tile (E minor) there's
a thousand more
That you won't ever (D major) see but most hold
(B minor) inside (C major) yourself etern (D major) ally. (E minor)

Verse 2
(B major)
Well, I drug (E minor) your ghost across
the country and we plotted out my death

Verse 4
(D minor) (G major) And (C major) (A minor) (D major) (G major) (C major) (D major)
(A minor) I kissed (E minor) a girl with a
broken jaw that her father gave to her (C major)
She had (E minor) eyes bright (B major) enough to burn me,
they reminded me of yours
And in a story (C major) told she was a little girl (E minor)
in a red-rouge sun-bruised field
field
field
And there were (B major) rows of ripe tomatoes
where a secret was concealed
(E minor) And it rose like thunder,
clapped under our (B major) hands
And it stretched (E minor) for centuries to a diary
(B major) entry's end where I wrote
Verse 5
(E minor) "You make me happy" (whoa) oh,

(E minor) "You make me happy" (whoa) The
skies are gray (B major) and gray and gray
Well the clock (A minor) 's heart

Stretched (A minor) towards the cal
(D major) endar hanging (G major) (C major) it self
But I will (D major) not weep (E minor) for those dying days
For all the ones (D major) who have left
there (E minor) are a few that stayed
And they found (D major) me here and pulled me from (C major) the grass
where (D major) I was (E minor) laid
