[Verse 1]
C
You left your typewriter at my apartment
F
Straight from the tortured poets department
C F
I think some things I never say
"Like who uses typewriters anyway?"
Am G
But you're in self-sabotage mode
C
Throwing spikes down on the road
F
But I've seen this episode and still love the show
Am G
Who else decodes you?
[Chorus]
C
And who's gonna hold you?
F
Like me
C
And who's gonna know you?
F
If not me
Am G
I laughed in your face and said, "You're not Dylan Thomas, I'm not Patti Smith
C F
This ain't the Chelsea Hotel, we'rе modern idiots"
Am G
And who's gonna hold you?
C
Like me
F
No, nobody
C
No-fucking-body
F
Nobody
[Verse 2]
C
You smokеd then ate seven bars of chocolate
F
We declared Charlie Puth should be a bigger artist
C F
I scratch your head, you fall asleep
Like a tattooed golden retriever
Am G
But you awaken with dread
Pounding nails in your head
C F
But I've read this one where you come undone
Am G
I chose this cyclone with you
[Chorus]

And who's gonna hold you?

Like me (Who's gonna hold you?)

And who's gonna know you? (Who's gonna hold you?)

Like me

This ain't the Chelsea Hotel, we'rе modern idiots"

Like me (Who's gonna hold you?)
F
No, nobody (Who's gonna hold you?)
C
No-fucking-body (Who's gonna hold you?)
F
Nobody (Who's gonna hold you?)
[Bridge]
C
Sometimes I wonder if you're gonna screw this up with me
F
But you told Lucy you'd kill yourself if I ever leave
C
And I had said that to Jack about you so I felt seen
F
Everyone we know understands why it's meant to be
C F
Because we're crazy
C F
So tell me who else is gonna know me?
Am G C F
At dinner you take my ring off my middle finger and put it on the one people put wedding rings on
Am G
And that's the closest I've come to my heart exploding
[Chorus]
C F
Who's gonna hold you? Me
C F
Who's gonna know you? Me
Am G
And you're not Dylan Thomas, I'm not Patti Smith
C F
This ain't the Chelsea Hotel, we're two idiots
Am G
Who's gonna hold you?
C
Who's gonna hold you?
Who's gonna hold you?
Who's gonna hold you?

Who's gonna hold you?

[Intro]
N.C.
So (So), long (long), Lon- (Lon), -don (-don)
N.C.
So (So), long (long), Lon- (Lon), -don (-don) (So long, London)
N.C. C Am D G
So (So), long (long), Lon- (Lon), -don (-don) (So long, London)
[Verse 1]
C
I saw in my mind ferry lights through the mist
Am
I kept calm and carried the weight of the rift
D G
Pulled him in tighter each time he was drifting away
C
My spine split from carrying us up the hill
Am
Wet through my clothes, weary bones caught the chill
D G
I stopped trying to make him laugh, stopped trying to drill the safe
[Chorus]
C Am D G
Thinking how much sad did you think I had, did you think I had in me?
Oh the tragedy
Am C G D
So long London
Am C G D
You'll find someone
[Verse 2]
C
I didn't opt in to be your odd man out
Am
I founded the club she's heard great things about
D G
I left all I knew you left me at the house by the Hеath
C
I stopped CPR, after all it's no use
Am
Thе spirit was gone, we would never come to
D G
And I'm pissed off you let me give you all that youth for free
[Chorus]
Am C G D
For so long, London
Am C G D
Stitches undone
Am C G D
Two graves, one gun
Am C G D
I'll find someone
[Bridge]
Em G
And you say I abandoned the ship, but I was going down with it
D Am
My white knuckle dying grip holding tight to your quiet resentment
Em
And my friends said it isn't right to be scared
G D
Every day old love affair, every breath feels like rarest air
Am Em
When you're not sure if he wants to be there
[Verse 3]
G D Am
So how much sad did you think I had, did you think I had in me?
Em
How much tragedy?
G D
Just how low did you think I'd go 'fore I'd self implode?
Am
'Fore I'd have to go be free?
C
You swore that you loved, me but where were the clues?
Am
I died on the altar waiting for the proof
D G
You sacrificed us to the gods of your bluest days
C Am
And I'm just getting color back into my face
D G
I'm just mad as hell cause I loved this place for
[Outro]
Am C G D
So long, London
Am C G D
Had a good run
Am C G D
A moment of warm sun
Am C G D
But I'm not the one
Am C G D
For so long, London
Am C G D
Stitches undone
Am C G D
Two graves, one gun
Am C G D
You'll find someone

track 06
But Daddy I Love Him
capo 2
[Intro]
G
[Verse 1]
D
I forget how the west was won
C
I forget if this was ever fun
G D
I just learned these people only raise you
To cage you
Em
Sarahs and Hannahs in their Sunday best
C
Clutchin' their pearls sighing, "What a mess"
G D
I just learned these people try and save you
'Cause they hate you
[Pre-Chorus]
Em C G
Too high a horse for a simple girl
D
To rise above it
Em C G
They slammed the door on my whole world
D
The one thing I wanted
[Chorus]
G
Now I'm running with my dress unbuttoned
C
Scrеamin', "But, daddy, I love him"
D
I'm having his baby, no, I'm not
C
But you should see your faces
G
I'm telling him to floor it through thе fences
C
No, I'm not coming to my senses
D
I know it's crazy
C
But he's the one I want
[Verse 2]
Em
Dutiful daughter all my plans were laid
C
Tendrils tucked into a woven braid
G D
Growing up precocious sometimes means not growing up at all
Em
He was chaos he was revelry
C
Bedroom eyes like a remedy
G D
Soon enough the elders had convened down at the city hall
[Pre-Chorus]
Em C G
"Stay away from her," the saboteurs
D
Protested too much
Em C G
Lord knows the words we never heard
D
Just screeching tires of true love
[Chorus]
G
And I'm running with my dress unbuttoned
C
Scrеamin', "But, daddy, I love him"
D
I'm having his baby, no, I'm not
C
But you should see your faces
G
I'm telling him to floor it through thе fences
C
No, I'm not coming to my senses
D
I know it's crazy
C
But he's the one I want
G C
I'll tell you something right now
D
I'd rather burn my whole life down
C
Than listen to one more second of all this bitchin' and moanin'
G C
I'll tell you something 'bout my good name
D
It's mine alone to disgrace
C
I don't cater to all these vipers dressed in empaths clothing
[Bridge]
Em C
God save the most judgmental creeps
D
Who say they want what's best for me
Em
Sanctimoniously performing soliloquies I'll never see
C D
Thinking it can changethe beat of my heart when he touches me
And counteract the chemistry
G D
And undo the destiny
C
You ain't gotta pray for me
Em
Me and my wild boy
D G D
And all of this wild joy
C
If all you want is gray for me
Em
Then It's just white noise
D
It's just my choice
[Verse 3]
G C
There's a lot of people in town that I bestow upon my fakest smiles
G D
Scandal does funny things to pride but brings lovers closer
Em
We came back when the heat died down
C
Went to my parents and they came around
G
All the wine moms are still holding out
D
But fuck 'em, it's over
[Chorus]
G
Now I'm dancing in my dress in the sun and
C
Even my daddy just loves him
D
I'm his lady
C
And oh my God you should see your faces
G
Time, doesn't it give some perspective
C
No, you can't come to the wedding
D C
I know it's crazy but he's the one I love
G C
I'll tell you something right now
D
You ain't gotta pray for me
C
Me and my wild boy, and all of this wild joy
G C
He was chaos he was revelry
D
It's all you want, it's gray for me
C G
It's just white noise, it's my choice
[Outro]
C D
Screaming, "But, daddy, I love him"
C
I'm having his baby
G
No, I'm not
C D
But you should see your faces
C G
And oh my God you should see your faces
C D C
He was chaos he was revelry

Fresh Out The Slammer
capo 2
[Intro]
G Em C
[Chorus]
G
Now pretty baby
Em C
I'm running back home to you
G Em C
Fresh out the slammer, I know who my first call will be to
(Fresh out the slammer, oh)
[Verse 1]
G Em
Another summer, taking cover, rolling thunder
C
He don't understand me
G Em
Splintered back in winter, silent dinners, bitter
C
He was with her in dreams
G
Gray and blue and fights and tunnels
Em C
Handcuffed to the spell I was under
For just one hour of sunshine
G
Years of labor, locks and ceilings
Em
In the shade of how he was feeling
C
But it's gonna be alright, I did my time
[Chorus]
G
Now pretty baby
Em C
I'm running back home to you
G Em C
Fresh out the slammer, I know who my first call will be to
(Fresh out the slammer, oh)
[Verse 2]
G
Camera flashes, welcome bashes
Em C
Get the matches, toss the ashes off the ledge
G Em
As I said in my letters, now that I know better
C
I will never lose my baby again
G
My friends tried, but I wouldn't hear it
Em C
Watched me daily disappearing
For just one glimpse of his smile
G
All those nights you kept me goin'
Em C
Swirled you into all of my poems
Now we're at the starting line, I did my time
[Chorus]
G
Now pretty baby
Em
I'm runnin'
[Outro]
C G
To the house where you still wait up and that porch light gleams (Gleams)
Em C
To the one who says I'm the girl of his American dreams
C
And no matter what I've done, it wouldn't matter anyway
C G
Ain't no way I'm gonna screw up, now that I know what's at stake here
Em C
At the park where we used to sit on children's swings
G C
Wearing imaginary rings
G Em C
But it's gonna be alright, I did my time
G C
G Em C

And my friends, all smell like weed or little babies
F Am G

Barricaded in the bathroom with a bottle of wine
G
Well, mе and my ghosts, we had a hell of a time
F Am
Yеs, I'm haunted, but I'm feeling just fine
G
All my girls got their lace and their crimes
F Am
And your cheating husband disappeared
G
Well, no one asks any questions here
[Verse 3]
Dm C
So I did my best to lay to rest
G
All of the bodies that have ever been on my body
Dm C G
And in my mind, they sink into the swamp
G
Is that a bad thing to say in a song?
[Pre-Chorus]
F Am
Little did you know your home's really only

The town you'll get arrested
F Am
So you pack your life away just to wait out

Is one hell of a drug
G
Florida
F
Can I use you up?
[Bridge]

At least the dolls are beautiful, fuck me up, Florida

I need to forget, so take me to Florida

I've got some regrets, I'll bury them in Florida

Tell me I'm despicable, say it's unforgivable

Love left me like this and I don't want to exist
So take me to Florida

A town you're just a guest in (Florida)
F Am
So you work your life away just to pay

For a time-share down in Destin (Take me to Florida)

Little did you know your home's really only

The town you'll get arrested (Florida)

So you pack your life away just to wait out

Guilty as Sin?
no capo
[Verse 1]
Am
Drownin' in the Blue Nile
F
He sent me "Downtown Lights"
Am
I hadn't heard it in a while
My boredom's bone-deep
F
This cage was once just fine
Am I allowed to cry?
Am
I dream of crackin' locks
F
Throwin' my life to the wolves or the ocean rocks
Am
Crashin' into him tonight, he's a paradox
I'm seeing visions
F Em G
Am I bad or mad or wise?
[Chorus]
C G F
What if he's written "mine" on my upper thigh only in my mind?
C
One slip and fallin' back into the hedge maze
G F
Oh, what a way to die
F G
I keep recalling things we never did
C Em
Messy top-lip kiss, how I long for our trysts
F
Without ever touchin' his skin
G Am
How can I be guilty as sin?
[Verse 2]
F
I keep these longings lockеd
Am
In lowercase, inside a vault
F
Somеone told me, "There's no such thing as bad thoughts
Only your actions talk
Am
These fatal fantasies
F
Giving way to labored breath, takin' all of me
Am
We've already done it in my head
If it's make-believe
F Em G
Why does it feel like a vow we'll both uphold somehow?
[Chorus]
C G F
What if he's written "mine" on my upper thigh only in my mind?
C
One slip and fallin' back into the hedge maze
G F
Oh, what a way to die
F G
My bedsheets are ablaze, I've screamed his name
C Em
Building up like waves, crashin' over my grave
F
Without ever touching his skin
G C
How can I be guilty as sin?
[Bridge]
G F
What if I roll the stone away?
C
They're gonna crucify me anyway
G F
What if the way you hold me is actually what's holy?
F G
If long suffering propriety is what they want from me
C Em
They don't know how you've haunted me so stunningly
F G
I choose you and me, religiously
[Chorus]
N.C. F
What if he's written "mine" on my upper thigh only in my mind?
C
One slip and fallin' back into the hedge maze
G F
Oh, what a way to die
F G
I keep recalling things we never did
C Em
Messy top lip kiss, how I long for our trysts
F
Without ever touchin' his skin
G Am
How can I be guilty as sin?
[Outro]
G F
He sent me “Downtown Lights”
C G
I hadn't heard it in a while
F
Am I allowed to cry?

Whos Afraid of Little Old Me?
no capo
[Intro]
Dm
[Verse 1]
Dm F Am G
The who’s who of who’s that is poised for the attack
Dm F
But my bare hands paved their paths
C G F Dm F
You don’t get to tell me about sad
Am G Dm F
If you wanted me dead you should’ve just said
G
Nothing makes me feel more alive
[Chorus]
C G Dm
So I leap from the gallows and I levitate down your street
F C
Crash the party like a record scratch as I scream
G Dm F
"Who’s afraid of little old me?"
Am G F C G F
You should be
[Verse 2]
Dm F
Her scandal was contained
Am G
The bullet had just grazed
Dm F
At all costs keep your good name
C G F Dm F
You don’t get to tell me you feel bad
Am
Is it a wonder I broke?
G Dm F
Let’s hear one morе joke
G
Then we could all just laugh until I cry
[Chorus]
C G Dm
So I leap from the gallows and I levitate down your street
F C
Crash the party like a record scratch as I scream
G Dm F
"Who’s afraid of little old me?"
[Post-Chorus]
C G Dm
I was tame, I was gentle till the circus life made me mean
F C
Don’t you worry folks, we took out all her teeth
G Dm F
Who’s afraid of little old me?
C
Well you should be
G Dm F
You should be, you should be
C G
You should be, you should be
Dm F
You should be
[Verse 3]
Am G F C Em Am
So tell me everything is not about me, but what if it is?
G F C Em
Then say they didn’t do it to hurt me, but what if they did?
Dm F
I wanna snarl and show you just how disturbed this has made me
Am G
You wouldn’t last an hour in the asylum where they raised me
Dm F
So all you kids can sneak into my house with all the cobwebs
Am G
I’m always drunk on my own tears, isn’t that what they all said?
C G Dm
That I’ll sue you if you step on my lawn
C G Dm
That I’m fearsome, and I’m wretched and I’m wrong
C G Dm
Put narcotics into all of my songs
C G Dm
And that’s why you’re still singing along
[Chorus]
C G Dm
So I leap from the gallows and I levitate down your street
F C
Crash the party like a record scratch as I scream
G Dm F
"Who’s afraid of little old me?"
C G Dm
I was tame, I was gentle till the circus life made me mean
F C
Don’t you worry folks, we took out all her teeth
G Dm F
Who’s afraid of little old me?
C
Well you should be
G Dm F
You should be, you should be
[Outro]
C G Dm F
Cause you lured me and you hurt me and you taught me
C G Dm F
You caged me and then you called me crazy
C G Dm F
I am what I am 'cause you trained me
C G Dm F
So who’s afraid of me?
C G Dm F
Who’s afraid of little old me?
C G Dm
Who’s afraid of little old me?

I Can Fix Him (No Really I Can)
capo 2
[Verse 1]
F G D F G D
The smoke cloud billows out his mouth like a freight train through a small town
F G D F G D
The jokes that he told across the bar were revolting and far too loud
[Chorus]
F G Em Am F G Am
They shake their heads saying, "God, help her" when I tell 'em he's my man
F G Em Am
But your good lord doesn't need to lift a finger
F G Am
I can fix him, no, really, I can
F G Am
And only I can
[Verse 2]
F G D F G D
The dopamine races through his brain on a six-lane Texas highway
F G D F G D
His hands so calloused from his pistol softly traces hearts on my face
F G D
And I could see it from a mile away
F G D
A perfect case for my certain skill set
F G D
He had a halo of the highest gradе
F G D
He just hadn't met me yеt
[Chorus]
F G Em Am F G Am
They shake their heads saying, "God, help her" when I tell 'em he's my man
F G Em Am
But your good lord doesn't need to lift a finger
F G Am
I can fix him, no, really, I can
F G Am
And only I can
[Bridge]

Good boy, that's right

Come close

I'll show you Heaven if you'll be an angel, all mine
F G Am F G Am
Trust me, I can handle me a dangerous man
F
No really, I can
[Chorus]
F G Em Am F G Am
They shook their heads saying, "God, help her" when I told them he's my man (I told them he's my man)

I can fix him, no, really, I can (No, really, I can)

C Am G
C Am G
[Verse 1]
C Am G
Who's gonna stop us from waltzing back into rekindled flames
If we know the steps anyway
C Am G
We embroidered the memories of the time I was away
Stitching, "We were just kids, babe"
F Am
I said, "I don't mind, it takes time"
G
I thought I was better safe than starry-eyed
F Am G
I felt a glow like this, never before and never since
[Chorus]
C Am
If you know it in one glimpse, it's legendary
G
You and I go from one kiss to getting married
C Am
Still alivе, killing time at the cemеtery
G
Never quite buried
[Post-Chorus]
F Am
And your suit and tie, in the nick of time
G
You low-down boy, you stand-up guy
F Am G
Holy ghost, you told me I'm the love of your life
C Am G
You said I'm the love of your life
About a million times
[Verse 2]
C Am G
Who's gonna tell me the truth when you blew in with the winds of fate
And told me I reformed you
C Am G
When your impressionist paintings of heaven turned out to be fakes
Well, you took me to hell too
F Am
And all at once, the ink bleeds
G
A con man sells a fool a "get love quick" scheme
F Am G
I felt a hole like this, never before and ever since
[Chorus]
C Am
If you know it in one glimpse, it's legendary
G
What we thought was for all time was momentary
C Am
Still alive, killing time at the cemetery
G
Never quite buried
[Post-Chorus]
F Am
You cinephile in black and white
G
All those plot twists and dynamite
F Am
Mr. Steal-Your-Girl, then make her cry
G
Said I'm the love of your life
[Bridge]
Dm Em
You shit-talked me under the table
F
Talking rings and talking cradles
I wish I could unrecall
Dm
How we almost had it all
Em
Dancing phantoms on the terrace
F
Are they second-hand embarrassed
G
That I can't get out of bed
C Am
'Cause something counterfeit's dead
G
It was legendary
C Am
It was momentary
It was unnecessary
G
Should've let it stay buried
[Chorus]
F
Oh, what a valiant roar
Am
What a bland goodbye
G
The coward claimed he was a lion
F Am
I'm combing through the braids of lies
G
I'll never leave, never mind
F Am
Our field of dreams engulfed in fire
G
Your arson's match, your somber eyes
F Am
And I'll still see until I die
G
You're the loss of my life

I've been doing it since he left

I keep finding his things in drawers

Crucial evidence, I didn't imagine the whole thing

I'm sure I can pass this test
(One, two, three, four)
[Chorus]
Am
'Cause I'm a real tough kid
F
I can handle my shit
C
They said, "Babe, you gotta fake it till you make it" And I did
Lights, camera, bitch, smile
In stilettos for miles

He said he'd love me for all time
But that time was quite short

All the piеces of me shatterеd as the crowd was chanting "More"

The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived
capo 3
[Verse 1]
G C D
Was any of it true?
G C D
Gazing at me starry-eyed
G C D
In your Jehovah's Witness suit
G C D
Who the fuck was that guy?
Em C D
You tried to buy some pills
Em C D
From a friend of friends of mine
Em C D
They just ghosted you
Em C D
Now you know what it feels like
[Chorus]
Em C D
And I don't even want you back, I just want to know
Em C D
If rusting my sparkling summer was the goal
Em C D
And I don't miss what we had, but could someone give
Em C D
A message to the smallest man who ever lived?
[Verse 2]
G C D
You hung me on your wall
G C D
Stabbed me with your push pins
G C D
In public, showed me off
G C D
Then sank in stoned oblivion
Em C D
'Cause once your queen had come
Em C D
You'd treat her likе an also-ran
Em C D
You didn't measure up
Em C D
In any measurе of a man
[Chorus]
C G D
And I don't even want you back, I just want to know
C G D
If rusting my sparkling summer was the goal
C G D
And I don't miss what we had, but could someone give
C G D
A message to the smallest man who ever lived?
[Verse 3]
G
Were you sent by someone
Em
Who wanted me dead?
D C
Did you sleep with a gun underneath our bed?
G
Were you writing a book?
Em
Were you a sleeper cell spy?
D C
In fifty years will all this be declassified?
G
And you'll confess why you did it
Em
And I'll say, "Good riddance"
D C
'Cause it wasn't sexy once it wasn't forbidden
G
I would've died for your sins
Em
Instead I just died inside
D C
And you deserve prison, but you won't get time
G Em
You'll slide into inboxes and slip through the bars
D C
You crashed my party and your rental car
G
You said normal girls were "boring"
Em
But you were gone by the morning
D C
You kicked out the stage lights, but you're still performing
G
And in plain sight you hid
Em
But you are what you did
D C
And I'll forget you, but I'll never forgive
G
The smallest man who ever lived

Touch down

Six weeks of breathing clean air

Just say you've always wondered
[Bridge]
Am
If the glint in my eye traced the depths of your sigh
G
Down that passage in time
F
Back to the moment I crashed into you
Like so many wrecks do
G
Too impaired by my youth
F
To know what to do
So if I sell my apartment
C
And you have some kids with an internet starlet
F G
Will that make your memory fade from this scarlet maroon?
Like it never happened
F
Could it be enough to just float in your orbit?
C
Can we watch our phantoms like watching wild horses?
F
Cooler in theory, but not if you force it
G
To be, it just didn't happen
[Chorus]
Dm G
So if you want to break my cold, cold heart
C F
Say you loved me
Dm G
And if you want to tear my world apart
C F
Say you'll always wonder
[Outro]
Dm G C
F Am
'Cause I wonder
G
Will I always
F G
Will I always wonder?

How Did It End
capo 3
[Intro]
F Dm C
F Dm C
(Uh-oh, uh-oh-oh-oh)
[Verse 1]
F Dm
We hereby conduct
This post-mortem
Am C
He was a hot house flower to my outdoorsmen
F Dm
Our maladies were such
We could not cure them
Am C
And so a touch that was my birth right became foreign
[Chorus]
F C
Come one come all
G F
It's happ'nin' again
C G F
The empathetic hunger descends
We'll tell no-one
C G F
'Cept all of our friends
We must know
C G
How did it end?
F Dm Am C
(Uh-oh, uh-oh-oh-oh)
[Verse 2]
F Dm
We were blind to unforeseen circumstances
Am C
We learn the right steps to diffеrent dances (Oh, oh-oh)
F Dm
And fell victim to intеrlopers glances
Am C
Lost the game of chance, what are the chances?
F
Soon they'll go home to their husbands
Dm
Smug 'cause they know they can trust him
Am C
Then feverishly calling their cousins (Oh, oh)
[Chorus]
F C G
Guess who we ran into at the shops?
F C G
Walking in circles like she was lost
F C
Didn't you hear?
G
They called it all off
F
One gasp and then
C G
How did it end?
[Instrumental]
Dm G Am F
Dm G Am F
[Bridge]
Dm G
Say it once again with feeling
Am
How the death rattle breathing
F
Silenced as the soul was leaving
Dm
The deflation of our dreaming
G
Leaving me bereft and reeling
Am
My beloved ghost and me
F
Sitting in a tree
F
D-Y-I-N-G
[Pre-Chorus]
C G F
It's happening again
C G F
How did it end?
C G F
I can't pretend like I understand
C G F
How did it end?
[Chorus]
F
Come one come all
C G F
It's happening again
c G F
The empathetic hunger descends
We'll tell no-one
C G F
Except all of our friends
C
But I still don't know
G F
How did it end?

I Hate It Here
no capo
[Verse 1]
Em
Quick, quick
G
Tell me something awful like you are a poet
C
Trapped inside the body of a finance guy
Tell me all your secrets
All you'll ever be is
My eternal consolation prize
Em G
You see I was a debutante in another life, but
C
Now I seem to be scared to go outside
If comfort is a construct, I don't believe in good luck
Now that I know what's what
[Chorus]
G
I hate it here so I will go to
Secret gardens in my mind
Em
People need a key to get to
The only one is mine
D C
I read about it in a book when I was a precocious child
No mid-sized city hopes and small-town fears
G Em
I'm there most of the year 'cause I hate it here
D C
I hate it here
[Verse 2]
Em
My friends used to play a game where
G
We would pick a decade
C
We wished we could live in instead of this
I'd say the 1830s but without all the racists
And getting married off for the highest bid
Em G
Everyone would look down 'cause it wasn't fun now
C
Seems like it was never even fun back then
Nostalgia is a mind's trick
If I'd been there, I'd hate it
It was freezing in the palace
[Chorus]
G
I hate it here so I will go to
Lunar valleys in my mind
Em
When they found a better planet
Only the gentle survived
D
I dreamed about it in the dark
C
The night I felt like I might die
No mid-sized city hopes and small-town fears
G Em
I'm there most of the year 'cause I hate it here
D C
I hate it here
[Bridge]
D
I'm lonely, but I'm good
I'm bitter, but I swear I'm fine
C Am Em
I'll save all my romanticism for my inner life and I'll get lost on purpose
C G
This place made me feel worthless
Am Em C G
Lucid dreams like electricity, the current flies through me and in my fantasies I rise above it
C
And way up there, I actually love it
[Chorus]
G
I hate it here so I will go to
Secret gardens in my mind
Em
People need a key to get to
The only one is mine
D C
I read about it in a book when I was a precocious child
No mid-sized city hopes and small-town fears
G Em
I'm there most of the year 'cause I hate it here
D
I hate it here

Quick, quick
Tell me something awful

no capo
[Intro]
C G C G
[Verse 1]
C G
When I picture my hometown
D
There's a bronze spray-tanned statue of you
C G
And a plaque underneath it
C G
That threatens to push me down the stairs, at our school
[Pre-Chorus]
C G D
And it was always the same searing pain
But I dreamed that one day, I could say
[Chorus]
G C D
All that time you were throwin' punches, I was buildin' somethin'
G
And I can't forgive the way you made me feel
C D
Screamed "Fuck you, Aimee" to the night sky, as the blood was gushin'
C G C G
But I can't forget the way you made me heal
[Verse 2]
C G D
And it wasn't a fair fight, or a clean kill
Each time that Aimee stomped across my gravе
C G
And then she wrote hеadlines
C G
In the local paper, laughing at each baby step I'd take
[Pre-Chorus]
C G D
And it was always the same searing pain
But I prayed that one day, I could say
[Chorus]
G C D
All that time you were throwin' punches, I was buildin' somethin'
G
And I couldn't wait to show you it was real
C D
Screamed "Fuck you, Aimee" to the night sky, as the blood was gushin'
G
But I can't forget the way you made me heal
[Post-Chorus]
C D
Everyone knows that my mother is a saintly woman
But she used to say she wished that you were dead
G C
So I pushed each boulder up that hill
D
Your words were still just ringin' in my head, ringin' in my head
[Bridge]
Em Am
I wrote a thousand songs that you find uncool
G D
I built a legacy which you can't undo
Em Am
But when I count the scars, there's a moment of truth
G D C G C G
That there wouldn't be this, if there hadn't been you
[Verse 3]
C G
And maybe you've reframed it
D
And in your mind, you never beat my spirit black and blue
C G
I don't think you've changed much
C G
And so I changed your name, and any real defining clues
C G
And one day, your kid comes home singin'
D
A song that only us two is gonna know is about you, 'cause—
[Chorus]
G C D
All that time you were throwin' punches, it was all for nothin'
G
And our town, it looks so small, from way up here
C D
Screamed "Thank you, Aimee" to the night sky, and the stars are stunnin'
G
'Cause I can't forget the way you made me heal
[Post-Chorus]
C D
Everyone knows that my mother is a saintly woman
But she used to say she wished that you were dead
G C
So I pushed each boulder up that hill
D
Your words were still just ringin' in my head, ringin' in my head
[Outro]

Thank you, Aimee

Thank you, Aimee

I had died the tiniest death
I spied the catch in your breath
C
Out, out, out, out, out, out
Em
Northbound I got carried away
As you boarded your train
C
South, south, south, south, south, south
[Pre-Chorus]

A feather taken by the wind blowing
C
I'm afflicted by the not knowing so
[Chorus]
Em D
I look in people's windows

Transfixed by rose golden glows
Em D C Em
They have their friends over to drink nice wine
D
I look in people's windows
C
In case you're at their table
Em D C
What if your eyes looked up and met mine
Em C
One more time
[Verse 2]
Em
You had stopped and tiltеd your head
I still ponder what it meant
C
Now, now, now, now, now, now
Em
I triеd searching faces on streets
What are the chances you'd be
C
Downtown, downtown, downtown
[Pre-Chorus]
Em
Does it feel alright to not know me?
C
I'm addicted to the "if only"
[Chorus]
Em D
So I look in people's windows
C
Like I'm some deranged weirdo

I attend Christmas parties from outside

I look in people's windows

In case you're at their table

The Prophecy
capo 1
[Intro]
Dm Am F C
[Verse 1]
Dm
Hand on the throttle
Am
Thought I caught lightning in a bottle
F C
Oh, but it's gone again
Dm
And it was written
Am
I got cursed like Eve got bitten
F C
Oh, was it punishment?
Dm
Pad around when I get home
Am
I guess a lesser woman would've lost hope
F
A greater woman wouldn't beg
C
But I looked to the sky and said
[Chorus]
G
Please
Am
I've been on my knees
F
Change the prophecy
Don't want money
C G
Just someone who wants my company
Am
Let it once be me
F
Who do I have to speak to
C
About if they can redo the prophecy?
[Verse 2]
Dm
Cards on thе table
Am
Mine play out like fools in a fablе
F C Dm
Oh, it was sinking in (Sinking in, oh)
Slow is the quicksand
Am
Poison blood from the wound of the pricked hand
F C
Oh, still I dream of him
[Chorus]
G
Please
Am
I've been on my knees
F
Change the prophecy
Don't want money
C G
Just someone who wants my company
Am
Let it once be me
F
Who do I have to speak to
C
About if they can redo the prophecy?
[Bridge]
F
And I sound like an infant
C
Feeling like the very last drops of an ink pen
G
A greater woman stays cool
F
But I howl like a wolf at the moon
F
And I look unstable
C
Gathered with a coven 'round a sorceress' table
G
A greater woman has faith
F
But even statues crumble if they're made to wait
C G
I'm so afraid I sealed my fate
F
No sign of soulmates
F C
I'm just a paperweight, in shades of greige
G F Dm Am
Spending my last coin so someone will tell me it'll be okay
[Break]
F
Ooh
C
Ooh
Dm Am
Ooh
F C
Ooh
[Chorus]
G
Please

I've been on my knees

Change the prophecy
Don't want money

Just someone who wants my company

Who do I have to speak to

About if they can redo the prophecy?
F C
Who do I have to speak to

To change the prophecy?

Thought I caught lightning in a bottle

Oh, but it's gone again

Pad around when I get home

I guess a lesser woman would've lost hope

A greater woman wouldn't beg

Dm C G
I was in my new house placing daydreams
Dm C G
Patching up the crack along the wall
Dm C G
I pass it and lose track of what I'm saying
Dm C G
'Cause that's where I was when I got the call
[Pre-Chorus]
Dm C G
When the first stone's thrown, they're screaming
Dm C G
In the streets, there's a raging riot
Dm C G
When it's "Burn the bitch," they're shrieking
Dm C G
When the truth comes out, it's quiet
[Chorus]
Em G D
So, they killed Cassandra first 'cause she feared the worst
Em G D
And tried to tell the town
Em G D
So, they filled my cell with snakes, I regret to say
Em G D
Do you believe me now?
[Verse 2]
Dm C G
I was in my tower weaving nightmares
Dm C G
Twisting all my smiles into snarls
Dm C G
They say, "What doesn't kill you makes you aware"
Dm C G
What happens if it becomes who you are?
[Chorus]
Em G D
So, they killed Cassandra first 'cause she feared the worst
Em G D
And tried to tell the town
Em G D
So, they set my life in flames, I regret to say
Em G D
Do you believe me now?
[Bridge]
C Em D
They knew, they knew, they knew the whole time
That I was onto something
C Em D
The family, the pure greed, the Christian chorus line
They all said nothing
C Em
Blood's thick but nothing like a payroll
D
Bet they never spared a prayer for my soul
C Em D
You can mark my words that I said it first
Dm C G
In a morning warning, no one heard
[Verse 3]
Dm C G
I patched up the crack along the wall
Dm C G
I pass it and lose track of what I'm saying
Dm C G
'Cause that's where I was when I lost it all
[Chorus]
Em G D
So, they killed Cassandra first 'cause she feared the worst
Em G D
And tried to tell the town
Em G D
So, they filled my cell with snakes, I regret to say
Em G D
Do you believe me now?

Ah, ah-ah-ah, ah
I was onto something

Ah-ah-ah, ah
They all said nothing

Blood's thick but nothing like a payroll
Bet they never spared a prayer for my soul

You can mark my words that I said it first

In a morning warning, no one heard
D C Em D
No one heard, not a single word was heard
[Outro]

When the first stone's thrown, they're screaming
In the streets, there's a raging riot

When it's "Burn the bitch," they're shrieking

But life was always easier on you

And sometimes it gets me

When crossing your jet stream

And I won't confess that I waited, but I let the lamp burn

As the men masqueraded, I hoped you'd return
C Am
With your feet on the ground, tell me all that you'd learned
F G
'Cause love's never lost when perspective is earned
C Am
And you said you'd come and get me, but you were twenty-five
F G
And the shelf life of those fantasies has expired
C Am
Lost to the "Lost Boys" chapter of your life
F G
Forgive me, Peter, please know that I tried
Am G
To hold on (Hold on) to the days (To the days)
F
When you were mine
Am G
But the woman who sits by the window

Has turned out the light

You said you were gonna grow up

The Bolter

[Intro]
C
[Verse 1]
C G
By all accounts, she almost drowned
F
When she was six in frigid water
C
And I can confirm she made
G
A curious child, ever reviled
F
By everyone except her own father
C
With a quite bewitching face
G
Splendidly selfish, charmingly helpless
F
Excellent fun 'til you get to know her
C
Then she runs like it's a race
G
Behind her back, her best mates laughed
F
And they nicknamed her "The Bolter"
[Chorus]
C
Started with a kiss
G
"Oh, we must stop meeting like this"
F
But it always ends up with a town car speeding
Out the drive one evening
C
Ended with the slam of a door
G
Then he'll call her a whore
Wish he wouldn't be sore
F
But as she was leaving
It felt like breathing
G Am
All her fuckin' lives
F
Flashed before her eyes
G Am
It feels like the time
F
She fell through the ice
C
Then came out alive
[Verse 2]
G
He was a cad, wanted her bad
F
Just like any good trophy hunter
C
And she liked the way he tastes
G
Taming a bear, making him care
F
Watching him jump then pulling him under
C
And at first blush, this is fate
G
When it's all roses, portrait poses
F
Central Park Lake in tiny rowboats
C
What a charming Saturday
G
That's when she sees the littlest leaks
Down in the floorboards
F
And she just knows
She must bolt
[Chorus]
C
Started with a kiss
G
"Oh, we must stop meeting like this"
F
But it always ends up with a town car speeding
Out the drive one evening
C
Ended with the slam of a door
G
Then he'll call her a whore
Wish he wouldn't be sore
F
But as she was leaving
It felt like breathing
G Am
All her fuckin' lives
F
Flashed before her eyes
G Am
It feels like the time
F
She fell through the ice
C
Then came out alive
[Bridge]
G
She's been many places with
Am
Men of many faces
C
First, they're off to the races
And she's laughing drawin' aces
G
But, none of it is changin'
Am
That the chariot is waitin'
C
Hearts are hers for the breakin'
There's an escape in escaping
[Chorus]
C
Started with a kiss
G
"Oh, we must stop meeting like this"
F
But it always ends up with a town car speeding
Out the drive one evenin'
C
Ended with the slam of a door
G
But she's got the best stories
You can be sure
F
That as she was leaving
It felt like freedom
G Am
All her fuckin' lives
F
Flashed before her eyes
G
And she realized
Am
It feels like the time
F
She fell through the ice
N.C.
Then came out alive

She rolled her eyes and said

G F
He said, "No, just a good samaritan"
C G
He said that if the sex was half as good as the conversation was
G F
Soon they'd be pushin' strollers
C G F C G F
But soon it was over
[Verse 2]
C G
In the age of him, she wished she was thirty
G F
And made coffee every morning in a Frеnch press
C G
Afterwards she only atе kids' cereal
G F
And couldn't sleep unless it was in her mother's bed
C G
Then she dated boys who were her own age
G F
With dart boards on the backs of their doors
C G
She thought about how he said since she was so wise beyond her years

[Bridge]

And the years passed

Like scenes of a show

Were hitting their marks

And the slow dance
Am F
Was alight with the sparks
G
And the tears fell
C G F
In synchronicity with the score
G
And at last

C G

G F
One last souvenir from my trip to your shores
C G
Now and then I reread the manuscript
G F
But the story isn't mine anymore
