Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]You set foot in America,
one [G]fine [D]Oc tober day
Sailing into Baltimore, well,
[A]everything's okay
New [D]buttons on your jacket,
shining like they're brand-new dimes
dimes
Glistening in the sunlight,
[A]blistering my [D]eyes

[Verse 2]
When you [G]said that you love me,
I knew it [Bm]wasn't [E]true
[D]I've 100 unread messages,
but not a [A]single [D]note from you
[E]

[Verse 3]
You zoomed up to Philly,
they'd [A]taught you to make [E]maps
They commissioned you in piety,
and pitied any [B]lapse
So you [E]stormed into Pittsburgh,
and [A]waited for the waters to [E]rise
And set sail down the Ohio,
with a [B]lost tribe on [E]your mind

[Verse 4]
When you [A]said that you love me,
I knew it [F#]wasn't true
[E]I've 200 unread messages,
but not a [B]single note from [E]you

[Interlude 1]
[E][F#]

[Verse 5]
As [F#]Hurricane Charlie was [B]gathering [F#]pace
At night in[F#m]stead of eye[F#]lids,
I saw pictures of your [C#]face
[F#]Smiling in the moonlight,
[B]shining in a golden [F#]hour
Bluffing 'round America,
[C#]seizing every [F#]hour

[Verse 6]
When you [B]said that you love me,
I [D#m]knew it wasn't t[G#]rue
[F#]I've 300 unread messages,
but not a [C#]single note from [F#]you

[Interlude 2]
[F#][G#]

[Verse 7]
You [G#]left old Kentucky,
and [Db]sailed to [Ab]the west
Stopped in Cincinnati,
dined with all the [Eb]best[Ab]
Reached the Mississippi,
[Db]took an oath in New Mad[Ab]rid
Fell into a maiden's arms,
[Eb]malaria on your [Ab]lips

[Verse 8]
When [Db]you said that you love me,
I [Fm]knew it wasn't [Bb]true
[Ab]I've 400 unread messages,
but not a [Eb]single note from [Ab]you

[Interlude 3]
[Bb]

[Verse 9]
[Bb]Up to St Louis, Ka[Eb]skaskia on t[Bb]he way
Walking through the wilderness,
sicker by the [F]day
[Bb]Imaginary volcanoes,
and [Eb]reptiles crawl [Bb]around
Your mind was baked just like a cake,
as [F]trouble gathered [Bb]round

[Verse 10]
When you [Eb]said that you love me,
I [Gm]knew it [C]wasn't true
[Bb]I've 500 unread messages,
[F]but [Bb]not [C]a single note from you

[Verse 11]
[C]
Defected to the Spanish,
you [F]joined the mighty [C]crown
Up the Missouri,
flags [G]were coming down
You [C]traded with the Omaha,
the [F]Ponca and [C]the Sioux
But missed the lost Padoucas, after
[G]all the bally[C]hoo

[Verse 12]
When you [F]said that you love me,
I [Am]knew it wasn't [D]true
[C]I've 600 unread messages,
but not a [G]single note from [C]you

[Interlude 4]
[D]

[Verse 13]
[D]Up with the Mandan,
you [G]raised the Spanish [D]flag
Survived assassination,
worked upon your [A]maps
[G]But the los[D]t tribe was a lost cause,
so you [G]cried a silent [D]tear
And fled back to St Louis,
to a fa[A]miliar fronti[D]er

[Verse 14]
When you [G]said that you love
[Bm]me, I knew it [E]wasn't true
[D]I've 700 unread messages,
but not a [A]single note from [D]you

[Interlude 5]
[D][E]

[Verse 15]
[E]Down in New Orleans,
[A]the church bells did [E]trill
The body of Don Juan Evans,
is staying mighty [B]still
You [E]annexed North Dakota,
you [A]surveyed by the [E]stars
But here lies your body,
by these dis[B]ease-ridden bars
[E]bars

[Verse 16]
When you [A]said that you love me,
I [C#m]knew it wasn't [F#]true
[E]I've [B]800[E] unread messages,
but not a [A]single note [B]from [E]you

[Outro 1]
[E]
