Somebody asked for Looking Back in a Day.
Would you rather hear that one or Broken Sandals tonight?
Looking Back in a Day.
I feel like it's Looking Back in a Day.
[D#] It's a request [Em] for somebody with a sign.
[D#] My friends at Gaslighting and Company, they made this rule, like [G#] if you bring a sign, you gotta [D] play it.
So I guess tonight that works.
[B] [Em] [C] This is one of the songs, you know when you write a song, the song keeps on living even after the subject matter has kind of died.
This is a song about my ex-wife.
So when I sing this song, [N] it's kind of strange for me to look back on this point in my life.
But I think it's fun because I always get a name of somebody else, but it's gonna be a guy.
So maybe you want one guy.
[Fm]
What's this guy's name?
[D] Asheron. He's who?
Asheron.
Asheron.
Asheron.
That's a good one.
Alright.
[D#] We'll give them what's gonna happen when [N] it happens.
[E] [C#]
[E] Alright, I haven't played this song in a while.
I was hoping we'll screw it up.
Alright.
Free [G#m] of any thought
[C#m] Seems like [A] yesterday
[Em] Runnin' high still from [C#] the ocean
But I'm kissed [A] goodbye baby
[Am] [Em] I called you from Paris
[C#m] To tell [A] you that I'm
[E] Runnin' on the [C#m] conservation deck
On [E] the Iphone 12
[Am] [F#]
[A] Remember those nights
[C#m] Late summer when we drew up [A] a bar we used to go
[F#] We had sex in the bathroom [G#] and I walked you through your house
[A] I tried to convince you not to go
[E] If only [F#] I had more time
I'd [C#m] take you where [B] you wanted [A] to go
[Em] In blue is [C#m] the same way [B] I'd [A] show you how to walk
[Am] [E] If only I had one wish
[C#] One million trillion letters
[A] I'd be with you
[E] Fall in love [C#m] with you
[B] Again [A] and again
[F#] First [Em]
of November
[C#]
[A] 99 days
[E] I was thinking of what to [C#] say
When I [Am] woke up
[E] Ashley pulled [B] me to my house
[C#m] But she's the one [A] who pulled me
[E] From a drink she put my hand
[C#] Watched the [B] rain shooting [A] at the sky
[Am] [Em] [F#] Ripping [A] records to pot heads
[C#] Our couch was [B] never big enough [A] for two
We'd fall [F#] asleep on each other's [G#] arms and wind up on the floor
[A] Laying back it was me for me and you
[E] If only I [C] had more time
I'd [C#m] take you where [C#] you wanted [A] to go
[B] In the pouring [C#m] snow
[B] [Am]
If only I [B] had one wish
One [C#m] million trillion [F#] letters
[A] I'd be with you
[E] Fall in love [C#m] with you
[B] Again and [A]
again
[E]
