Bright Eyes - Poison oak

^APoison oak, s^Dsus2ome boyhood bravery When th^Ae telepho^Dsus2ne was a tin can on a string And I^F#m fell asleep with^E you still talking to me You said you^A weren't ^Dsus2afraid to die

In p^Aolaroids you we^Dsus2re dressed in women's clothes Were you^A made ashamed, ^Dsus2why'd you lock them in the drawer' Wel^F#ml I don't think^E that I ever loved you more Than when you tu^Arned away When you sla^Dsus2mmed the door When^A you stole a^Dsus2 car drove, towards Mexico And you wr^Aote bad c^Dsus2hecks just to fill your arm I was y^F#moung enough, I^E still believed in war

^EBut let the po^F#mets cry themselves to sleep ^EAnd all their t^F#mearful words would turn back into steam

But me, I'm a s^Aingle^Dsus2 cell on a serpent's tongue And there^A's a mud^Dsus2dy field where a garden was And I'^Am glad you got away But ^Dsus2I'm still stuck out here My c^F#mlothes are soa^Eking wet from your brother's tears

^EAnd I never^F#m thought this life was possible ^EYou're the ye^F#mllow bird that I've been waiting for

Now ^AI'm drunk ^Dsus2as hell on a piano bench And when I p^Aress the ^Dsus2keys it all gets reversed The soun^F#md of lon^Eeliness makes me happier
