Mark Kozelek - You missed my heart

^DBroke into her^D/C# house. Saw her sittin’ ^D/Bthere, Drinking coke and ^Gwhiskey in her bra and under^Dwear. Saw him in the ^D/C#kitchen, hangin’ up the ^D/Bphone. I asked him nicely ^Gplease to pack his things and ^Dgo. He gave her a reassuring ^D/C#look, that said he wouldn’t ^D/Bleave. But I asked him one m^Gore time and this time pulled out my ^Dshiv. I struck him in the ^D/C#back and I pulled it out ^D/Bslow, Watched him fall do^Gwn, And as the morning sun ^Grose, He looked at me^Asus4 and said:

“You missed my ^Dheart, you missed my ^Bmheart. You got me ^Ggood. I knew you ^Awould. But you missed my ^Dheart, you missed my ^Bmheart.”

Were his last ^Gwords, before he ^Asus4died. ^DLooking out th^D/C#e window, up at the blue ^D/Bsky, Listening to her ^Gscream, listening to her ^Dcry. A feeling of ^D/C#relief came over my ^D/Bsoul. I couldn’t take it any ^Glonger and I lost control.^D I chased her up the ^D/C#stairs And I pinned her to the ^D/Bground, And underneath her whimp^Gering, I could hear the sirens ^Dsound. I rattled off a ^D/C#list, of everything I ^Bmmissed Like going to the movies with ^Gher And the way she kissed me. ^D Driving into ^D/C#downtown Wheeling and showing her ^D/Boff. Backyard barbe^Gcues and reunions in the ^Dpark. I said I loved her ^D/C#skin and she started ^D/Blaughing And while I clenched down on her ^Gwrist She said “That's quite a ^Glist.." “But there’s one thing you ^Amissed.

“You missed my ^Dheart, you missed my ^Bmheart. That's quit^Ge a list But what yo^Au really missed But you missed my ^Dheart, you missed my ^Bmheart.”

That’s quite a ^Glist, but what you really ^Amissed.” ^DRunning through the p^D/C#arking lots Running through the ^D/Bfields Policemen on my ^Gback Something hit my skull and ^Dcracked They dragged me off to ^D/C#jail, set a million dollar ^D/Bbail Where I tried to tie a ^Gnoose, but I failed and I broke ^Dloose Went racing through the prison ^D/C#yard, Shot down by a tower ^D/Bguard He got me in the ^Gshins And he got me in the ^Darms Strapped me in the ^D/C#gurney Took me off to the ^D/Binfirmary Where the priest read my last ^Grites… And just befo^Gre,everything went da^Ark, I said:

“He missed my ^Dheart, he missed my ^D/C#heart Just befor^Ge, my world went da^Ark, Said he missed my ^Dheart, he missed my h^D/C#eart” And just befo^Gre,everything went^A dark,

^DThe most poetic ^D/C#dream came flowing like the s^D/Bea Lay in there my ^Glife, but draining out of ^Dme A childhood ^D/C#scene then, sky moon ^D/Bbeams, Fishing with my ^Gfriends sitting in the wild ^Dlands Watching the ^D/C#Ohio river flow ^D/Bat night ^GWaiting for the bullhead catfishes to ^Dbite Downriver from the ^D/C#Moundsville prison graveyards^D/B… ^{G D}Downriver from t^D/C#he Moundsville prison graveyard^D/Bs… ^{G D}Downriver from t^D/C#he Moundsville prison graveyard^D/Bs... ^G
