[E] He calls from [A] Longbottom, he's a man, he's [D] a man.
_ _ I spend the [G] night sometimes,
[A] all on the [D] frozen road,
afternoon and [A] night,
you settle in the [E] rain.

[E] I came back out of town from [A] my basement, _
[E] he waited there for me to [A] have the sex again.
He [E] could drink my wine and eat me,
[A] but like a sad woman,
I [E] just stood there like I do.
[A] And then I came and went,
and came and [D] went.
_ I put [G] on a porn stack,
couldn't [D] even say goodbye,
for no [A] sound of pain,
the sounds [E] of my life.

[C] _ _ I [E] saw a friend, he doesn't know,
that I'm [A] his friend just yet.
His eyes [E] and mouth was widely open,
[A]
his jaw was set,
but he [E] fell off a cliff,
and [A] hit the bottom yet.
I wished [E] he wouldn't put those things on me,
[A] but out of the net,
but out of the [D] net,
and I went [G] to the house one night,
he was having [D] a real good time,
and then he went [A] on the plane,
_ he settled [Em] in the rain. _ _ _

[E] _ _ _ _ [C] _ _ We [E] were on the bed not too far from [A] the avalon,
_ my [Em] sister's girl stole my record,
I [A] heard it all you know.
And [E] she wishes [Em] mom was in Washington,
I've [A] heard her dirty clothes.
And [Em] she shuts her eyes and dreams about
[A] a one-eyed joke, a one-eyed [D] joke.
I was [G] like a dirty boat,
never [D] known for long she was,
just couldn't [A] take the strength,
and settled [Em] in the lake.
_ _ _ [Bm] _ _ _
[E] _ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _
[E] Deep southern storms blowin' on to me,
[A] still like blue in the night. _
[E] Like clouds of twisting horns,
[A] tingle flashing by,
[E]
like clouds of twisting horns,
[A] tingle flashing by.
Like [Em] some cheap religious thing,
I [A] hang in the sky.
[Em] It just touched my face and I'm all,
regret [A] down in the back,
great down there,
[D] cry.
_ It's never [G] been happier, like,
just prayin' for [D] another birthday,
I want the G [A].J.'s crying,
this,
sad,
and,
