[B] [E] [A]
I thought I saw you in the [D] battleship, but it [Bm] was only a lookalike.
[A] She was nothing but a vision [D] trick [Bm] under the warning [F#m] light.
She was [A] close, close enough to [F#m] be your ghost, [A] but my chances tend [D] to toast when I ask her
[Bm] if I could call [A] her your name.
[F#m] [A] [F#m] [A]
I thought I saw you in the rusty [D] hull, huddled [Bm] up in a wicker chair.
[A]
I wandered over for a closer [D] look and kissed [Bm] whoever was sitting there.
[F#m] She was close, [A] but she held me very [F#m] tightly, [A] to lie so awfully [D] politely,
[Bm] please, can I [A] call you her name?
[F#m] [A]
[F#m] [E] [D] I elongated my [Bm] lift home, [F#m] yeah, I let him go the long way [D] round.
[Bm] I smelled your scent on the [E] seatbelts and kept my shortcuts to [A] myself.
[D] [E]
[A] I thought I saw you in the parrot's [D] beak, messing with [Bm] the smoke [A] alarm.
It was too loud for me to hear her [D] speak, [Bm] and she had a broken [F#m] arm.
It was close, so close that the walls were [A] wet, and she wrote a [D] touching letter,
said, [Bm] no, you can't call me [C#m] her name.
[A] So tell me, where's [C#m] your hiding [A] place?
I'm worried [G] I'll [C#m] forget your face.
[E] And [F#m] I've asked everyone, [Bm] I'm beginning to think I [E] imagined you all along.
[D] I elongated my [Bm] lift home, [F#m] yeah, I let him go the long way [D] round.

[A] I saw your sister in a corner [D] store, on the phone [Bm] to the middle man.
[A] And when I saw that she was on [D] her own, I knew that [Bm] she'd understand.
She [F#m] was [E] close, but [A] you couldn't get much [F#m] closer.
[A] She said, I'm really not [D] supposed to, but yes, you can [Bm] call me anything [A] you want.

I'm just going to have a sip of water.
