[G]
[Am]
[C] [G]
[Em]
[Am] You in the living room, you on a [Em] Tuesday afternoon breeze,
[G] seeing all the [C] curtains move.
You by the window, both feet upon the [G] couch, where you sit and breathe.
I watch you [A] [F] from the office, sunlight frames your silhouette.
[Am] I think of the [G] lighting by the books, I think of peerless.
[F] I have you write down observations on the scene.
[C] We look for [G] scantiloons along, we paint them on our own,
and your heart [Am] is a living one.
You put the props [G] on your feet, [Em] sitting in a coffee seat.
[Am] I'm in the office, thinking back to the rules of poetry.
[Em] It's fourteen lines, the last two rhyme, what does Pantana do?
[Am] You in the living room, legs bent at forty-five [Em] degrees.
I write maybe, [Em] maybe, try to find your [Am] eyes.
I look for objects on the desk, which sculpture am [Em] I best?
What would I [G] name this?
I paint it, or have been reading, [F] or the rest.
I remember so well, watching [Am] you shifting your [G] weight,
turning the page, I can [F] see it all there.
Inside the [Am] living room, where only I live,
[G] you never go in, the room, the [F] wall, there's the hand.
[A] And I pause where I am for a second when I hear [F] your name.
[Am]
Sometimes I think I [A] see your face in improbable [F] places.
And those moments [Am] from playing for you, when I'm suddenly there,
and then I won't go away.
When you're sitting in the living room, reading for the afternoon,
do you put your book down, look and [A] try to find me there?
Sometimes [Em] I think of all the people who lived here before [A] us,
how the spaces in the memories [Em] you make change your room from [G] just home
to the place where [A] you live.
[D] [F]
[E] When you leave [Am] here, when you go from [G] a home,
you take all that you are in [A]
the living [G] room,
all [A] that we are in the work set, on the couch,
[G] we're left strung and decided with some [F] problems.
And I can't tell what it [G] is, but we know what's how we made it.
But what's how [C] we play, I'll cut you in the chip [G] spill,
when you sit and you read in the sunlight.
[C]
I [Gm] live alone now, safe with [Em] the echo.
I live [G] alone now, safe with the [A] echo.
