[Verse]
G/BHundreds of stories bCefore I showed up
G/BThey'd tell them to me and Cpull photos up
G/BThey're all connected like a pCair of handcuffs
G/BNo one seemed effected that evCeryone had fucked
AmBut there was a softness, sG/Bome kind of understanding
CThose 2am decisions are alDways shaking landings
AmNo one ever knew what cG/Bould be demanded
CMaybe it's the cards, tDhe cards she was handed
[Chorus]
CYou called me Gup from a pay phone
DI said hang tEmight, I canD drive you home
CI pulled on upG and with a southern accent
DI offered yEmou my dad's lDeather jacket
G Gsus2
[Verse]
G/BI met her at a party, she'd cCome straight from work
G/BComplained that the regular were aCll a bunch of jerks
G/BShe always looked tired but she daCzzled as a drunk
G/BShe even pulled off that stCupid haircut
She said "IAm don't need a sponsor oG/Br the best lover
Some Cman that sees me as sDome fixer-upper".
The lAmast few years I've been rG/Bunning for cover
CTrying to sleep so I can vDisit my mother"
[Chorus]
CYou called me Gup from a pay phone
DI said hang tEmight, I canD drive you home
CI pulled on upG and with a southern accent
DI offered yEmou my dad's lDeather jacket
CWhen times were tGough in the worst years
DWe never kEmnew how to iDnterfere
CNow you're bGack and just unpacking
DThose bruised up taEmkers you kDeep attracting

[Bridge]
AmIn September when it G/Bgoes off, like some Cgoddamn aDlarm clock.
AmAnd it hits her like G/Ba third shot, converCsations sDhe just stares off
AmThere's no longer a vG/Boice calling, when sChe goes out, saying
D"I'll be up waiting for you"
