[Intro 1]
[G][F#m][G][A][E][A][G][C]
[D][G][C][Am][Bm][D][G][C]

[Verse 1]
[E]She took [A]the Olds[G]mobile out past Condor Avenue
And she locked [C]the car
and slipped [D]past
Into rhythmic quiet[G]ude
[C]Lights bur[Am]ning[A][Bm]
Voice [D]dry [G]and [C]hoarse[E]
I threw [A]the screen door like
[G]a bastard back and forth
The [C]chimes fell over each [D]other
I fell [G]on to my knees
[C]The sound of [Am]the car driv
[A]ing [Bm]off made m[D]e feel d[C]iseased
[E]A sick sho[G]uting like you hea[Am]r
at the fair[E]ground
Now I'm picking [G]up to put [Am]away
anything of yours that's [A]still [E]around
I don't [G]know what to do with
your [Am]clothes or your letters
It'll [E]make [Em]a whi[D]sper

[Interlude 1]
out of you
[C][Am][C][D]

[Verse 2]
[E]She too[A]k the Oldsmob[G]ile out
past Condor Avenue
[C]The fairground's lit
A drunk man [D]sits by the gate
she's [G]driving [C]through
Got his [Am]hat tipped b[A]ottle back
[Bm]in betwe[D]en his t[G]eeth[C][E]
Looks [A]like he's [G]buried in
the sand at the beach
[C]I can't think about you d[D]riving
off to leave [G]barely [D]awa[G]ke[C]
To [Am]take a [A]little [Bm]nap while
[D]the road is [C]straight[E]
I [G]wish that car had [Am]never
been discovered
[E]They took away the [G]bottle and
the [Am]hat he was u[E]nder
That's the [G]one thing that
[Am]he could never do
And it'll [E]make [Em]a
[D]whisper out of you

[Interlude 2]
[C][D]

[Verse 3]
[E]She took the[A] Old[F#m]s[A]
[G]mobile out past Condor Avenue
Cops [C]were running around
[G]the scene
[D]Looking for [G]some kind of [C]clue
They [Am]never get [A]up [Bm]tight when
[D]a moth [G]get[C]s crushed[E]
Unless [A]a light bulb really
[G]loved him very much
[C]I'm lying [D]down
Blowing smoke from [G]my cigarette
[C]Little whisper[Am] smoke sig[A]ns[Bm]
that [D]you'll never [G]get[C][E]
You're in [G]your Olds
[Am]mobile driving by the moon
[E]Headlights [G]burning [Am]bright
ahead of you

[Verse 4]
[E]And someone's burning [G]out,
out on [Am]Con dor Avenue
Trying to [Em]make [E]a w[Em]hisper
[D]out of you[C][Am][D]
[E]What a shitty [Em]thing [G]to say[Am]
Did you really mean it?
[E]You never said [G]a word to me about
[Am]what passed between us
So [E]now I'm leaving [G]you alone
You can [Am]do whatever the
hell you want [Em]to
[D]Na, na, na, na, na, na

[Outro 1]
