He says he had played this a few times but this was the first in front of an audience.

[Intro]
G C/G G
[Verse 1]
C/GIf there's a diamond in my Gmind
C/GWill it dwindle down to Gnaught
C/GOr will it always be Gdefined
C/GIf I cant fix it with my Gheart
[Chorus]
Dadd4add9/A C/G G
So I'm returning to the place
Dadd4add9/A C/G G
That I might look into your eyes
Dadd4add9/A C/G G
And look so hard that I can taste
EmThat winter sun that never Gsets
EmThe sparrow caught up in the Gnets
EmThe perfect chorus when it Ghits
C/GDon't slam the door, boy, when you Gleave
[Verse 2]
C/GWas heading northward when I Gsaw
C/GThat empty house out in the Gmidst
C/GThere are traces there for Gsure
C/GOn every mouth you ever Gkissed
[Chorus]
Dadd4add9/A C/G G
So I'm returning to the word
Dadd4add9/A C/G G
Find my place between the lines
Dadd4add9/A C/G G
Where I might dutifully recall
EmThe blue within your seagull Gstare
EmThe funny ways you had to Gcare
EmFor every little thing beyond Gcompare
C/GDon't slam the door, boy, when you Gleave
C/GLaa laa laaa laaa laaa GLaa laa laaa laaa
C/GLaa laa laaa laaa laaa GLaa laa laaa laaa
C/GLaa laa laaa laaa laaa GLaa laa laaa laaa
C/G Dadd4add9/A
Laa laa laaa laaa laaa Laa laa laaa laaa
[Chorus]
Emnow I call out in the Ggulf
EmWhen you went walking with Gwolf
EmHey boy, you really brought it on Gyourself
C/G Dadd4add9/A
Don't slam the door, boy, when you leave
EmThe strangest for we ever Gfaced
EmThe stark in every staging Ggrace
EmIs crushing diamonds into Gpaste
C/GDon't slam the door, boy, when you Gleave
C/GDon't slam the door, boy, when you Gleave
C/GDon't slam the door, boy, when you Gleave
