Key: A minor
Verse 1
a record by the Moody Blues,
a bottle of Chanel No. 5,
a poster of a band called Dead or Alive,
G
Am
a silk necklace and a black garter belt,
a book about how to get to know yourself,
Em
Am
And the shirt you adopted
used to be mine
These are some of the things you
Em
Am
left behind
Paintings painted by a man you knew
Someone you dated in 82
An autographed picture of Junior Wells
I didn't even know you
liked soul that well
Three pieces of paper
with cryptic notes
Cigarettes you never smoked
A bag of beads and fish in line
These are some of the things
Em
Am
you left behind
A dozen contraceptive sponges,
fourteen cans of clam chowder,
forgotten how much you like that stuff,
these are some of the things
Em
Am
you left behind.
A pack of rusty razor blades,
Em
you threatened to use those things one day.
where'd that come from?
You forget to tell me about someone.
A bottle of cheap Italian wine,
these are some of the things
Em
Am
you left behind.
A ticket stub to a Broadway play,
a button fan, make my day
A broken mirror with a lipstick smear,
a telephone number where the
name's unclear
G
Am
Two pressed roses and a
blank page book
Em
containing all the notes that you nev er took
he's the song for the things
Em
Am
you left behind
A rosary, some holy cards,
a photo of your daddy's Brooklyn bar
Em
Am
A list of possible jobs, interviews,
I didn't know things had gotten that dull
A note on the door, one word goodbye
Am
Em
Am
A pair of stockings,
garter belts,
Em
Am
an autographed picture of Junior Wells,
G
clam chowder, razor blades,
wedding bands,
broken mirror with a lipstick smear,
a valentine card, a rosary,
A glassine bag, heroin,
oh shit not heroin, one word,
tacked up on my door,
just one word, goodbye.
