Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[A][D][A][D]

[Verse 1]
[A]Poison Oak, some boyhood bravery[D]
When [A]a telephone was a tin can on a s[D]tring
And I fell asleep with you still talking to [E]me
You said you weren't af[A]raid to [D]die
[A][D]

[Verse 2]
[A]In Polaroids you were dressed
in women's [D]clothes
Were [A]you made ashamed,
why'd you lock them in the [D]drawer?
Well I don't think that I ever loved you [E]more

[Chorus 1]
Than when you [A]turned away
When you [D]slammed the door
When you stole the car
drove towards [E]Mexico
And you [A]wrote bad checks
just to [D]fill your arm
I was young enough,
I still be[E]lieved in war

[Interlude 1]
[A][D][A][D]

[Verse 3]
[E]Well let the poets cry themselves to [D]sleep
And all [E]their tearful words
would turn back into [D]steam

[Chorus 2]
But me I'm a [A]single cell
on a [D]serpents tongue
There's a muddy field
where a [E]garden was
And I'm glad you [A]got away
But I'm still [D]stuck out here
My clothes are soaking wet
from your [E]brothers tears

[Interlude 2]
[A][D][A][D]

[Verse 4]
And [E]I never thought
this life was possib[D]le
You're [E]the yellow bird
that I've been waiting [D]for

[Chorus 3]
The end of pa[A]ralysis I was a [D]statuette
Now I'm drunk as hell on a [E]piano bench
And when I [A]press the keys it all [D]gets reversed
The sound of loneliness makes me [E]happier

[Outro 1]
[A][D][A][D]
[A][D][A][D]
