I will offer an introduction to the next song.
.
I guess it was somewhere around 2001.
I guess it was the end of 2001 to be exact.
.
We were four lost souls.
wandering the streets of Las Vegas, Nevada.
kind of looking for like-minded musicians.
.
They have these weekly free magazines.
that you can get there.
They're called Las Vegas Weekly and City Life.
Yeah.
.
Dave Kooning, our guitar player,.
[D#] [N] .
he put an ad out in these classifieds,.
looking for, you know.
He was looking for anything he could get,.
a singer, a drummer, anything.
.
I happened to be skimming through the paper.
and I liked his influences.
I liked the bands that he liked,.
so I gave him a call.
It was very exciting because you never knew.
who was going to open the door when you knocked.
You never knew who that person was.
Me and Dave got along all right, I think.
.
On that first meeting, he gave me a cassette.
that had five ideas on it.
So I took the cassette and I stuck it in the tape player.
of my 1992 Geo Metro that I had at the time.
.
This was the first thing that was on.

[C#] .
[F#] [C#] .
Coming out of our cage.
And I was doing [F#] just fine.
I let me [C#] down because I wanted off.
It started out with a [Fm] kiss.
How did it end up [F#] like this?.
It was only a kiss.
It was [C#] only a kiss.
Now I'm falling asleep.
And she's calling a cab.
[F#] While he's having a smoke.
And she's [C#] taking a drag.
And I go in the bed.
And my stomach [F#] is sick.
And it's all in my head.
But she's touching [A#m] his chest.
Now he takes off [C#] her dress.
Now lets me [F#] .
go.
I .
[A#m] .
just can't look.
[C#] It's killing me.
And it's [F#] taking control .
[C#] .
Jealousy.
[F#] Turned this place [A#m] into the sea.
[G#] Swimming [C#] through single alibis.
[F#] Tilted on [A#m] your alibi.
[G#] But it's just [C#] a place of pain.
[F#] Destiny [A#m] is calling me.
[G#] Open up [C#] my ego.
