[E] Years, _ _ [B] days, makes no [A] difference to me [E] babe _ You look [B] exactly the same [A] to me _
_ _ _ There _ ain't [F#m] no [E] time, _ _ [B] crossing your legs [A] inside the [B] diner [E] Raising the [B] coffee to your lips, [A] the steam _
_ _ _ _ You stole the [E] masterpiece, _ _ she looks a lot [A] like you
_ _ Wrapping her [E] left arm around your right, [B] ready to [C#m] walk you through
_ [E] _ _ _
You [C#m] _ _ _ [E] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [A] _ whisper [E] to a restless ear, _ [B] can you [A] get me out of here?
[E] This place smells [B] like piss and [A] beer, can you get me out?
_ _ _ You're [E] asking me, _ [B] _ how to get [A] you free?
_ [E] I only know [B] the recipe [A] to your _ wound
_ _ _ _ You stole the [E] masterpiece, _ _ she looks a [A] lot like you
_ Wrapping your [E] left arm around my right, [B] ready to walk [C#m] me through
_ [E] _ _ _
_ _ _ [C#m] _ _ [E] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _
[E] _ _ Like old [B] stars, filling up [A] my throat
_ [E] _ You gave them to me [B] when I was born, [A] and now they're coming out
_ You lay [E] there on the hospital [B] bed, your eyes are [A] narrow and [E] red
You take a draw of [B] a breath and say
[A] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ You stole the [E] _ masterpiece, _ she looks a lot [A] like me
_ Wrapping my [E] left arm around your right, [B] ready to walk [C#m] you _ _ [E] _ through

_ _ _ _ _ _ Old [E] _ friends, _ _ [B] _ old [A] mothers, dogs and [E] brothers
There's only so much [B] to let go, you [A] can ask someone to do
_ _ _ So I will [E] keep you by my side, [B] I will not [A] give you to the [E] tide
I'll even [B] walk you in my [A] stride, _ Maria
_ _ _ You stole the [E] _ masterpiece, _ she looks a lot [A] like _ you
Wrapping your [E] left arm around my right, [B] ready to [C#m] walk me through

Last time [B] I saw Paul, I was [G#m] _ horrible _ [E] and almost let [F#] him in _ _ _ _ _
[E] But [B] I stopped and caught the [D#] wall, _ and [G#m] my mouth got dry
[E] So all I did was [F#] take him for [B] a spin _ _ _ _ _
_ Yeah, we hopped inside [D#] my car
Then I [G#] drove in _ [E] circles round the freight [F#] train yard
_ _ _ _ Then [G] he turned the headlights [F#] _ off
[B] Then he [G#m] pulled the [E] bottle out
And then [F#] he showed me what is [B] _ love
_ _ _ _ _ I'll [E] be the morning bright, the night shadow machine
[B] I'll be your record player, baby, if you know what I mean
I'll [E] be your real tough cookie with a whiskey breast
[B] I'll be a killer and a thriller and the cause of our death
_ _ _ In [G] the blossom of the [B] months
I [G#m] was sure that I'd [E] get driven off [F#] with awe _ _ _
_ So I [G] _ swallowed [B] all of it
I _ [G#m] _ realized there was [E] no one who [F#] could kiss away [B] my shit _ _ _
_ _ I'll [E] be the morning bright, the night shadow machine
I'll [B] be your record player, baby, if you know what I mean
[E] I'll be your real tough cookie with a whiskey breast
[B] I'll be a killer and a thriller and the cause of our death

_ _ _ [G#m] Paul, I [F#] know you _ said that [G#m] you'd take me _ [E] anyway
I [F#] came _ overwind, _ _ _ [B] but I'll push you from [C#] my [D#] _ brain
[F#] See you gentle _ [E] baby, I couldn't stay, [F#] I'd only bring [B] you _ pain
_ That _ _ [E] was your story, I had a daughter and the one that you saw
That [B] was your little game, you brought her in the one in the car
We were [E] just two moonshiner on the cusp of a breath
[B] And I've been burning for you baby since the minute I left _ _ _ _
[F] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

_ _ _ _ _ [C#] When I saw [F#] the first time [G#] the thunder _ [Fm] came _ crashing
_ _ [C#] Your new [F#] blue eye line [G#] _ caught my _ _ distraction
_ _ [C#] And like we were two _ lovers [F#] _
forming from _ friction
_ [G#]
Your mouth caught my _ ear with such perfect _ diction
_ [F#] And there I let you [C#] tie my hands back [G#] and take me _ _
_ [F#] All the rain _ [C#] on a _ Saturday [G#] _ morning _ _
All _ [D#m] the rain [G#]
with her soft burning [C#] _ _
hands _ _ _ _ _ _
We _ [Fm] fell [F#] asleep _ [G#] in the back of the _ warehouse
_ [C#] I woke [G#] to [F#] you _ _ [G#] kneading and _ covering _ my _ neck
[C#] And like we were _ _ _ hummingbirds [F#] _
screaming at _ ravens
[C#]
[G#] You started to move me from fact into _ _ fable
[F#] And there I let you [C#] take me under _ [G#] your table _
All [F#] the rain _ [C#] on a Saturday _ [G#] _ morning _
All _ the [D#m] _ _ [G#] rain with her soft burning [C#] _ hands
