Okkervil River - Song of our so-called friend

R^Aemember when our so-called friend would ^Bmnot call out to you while tumbling ^F#mloosely out a hole punched through your ^Dho^Dsus2me It's ^Apretty clear though you could hear you tr^Bmuly finally knew in time he'd t^F#mell his tale the way he'd like it t^Dol^Dsus2d

Now he ^F#misn't on the ^Bmphone and his ^Bmstory might as well be ^Dso

Well lo^Aving is as loving does and I'^Bmd say we should know because we both have ^F#mloved have lost and are al^Don^Dsus2e Your ^Aface's falling tears to me they're ^Bmlovely and they're dear though you ^F#mdon't love me and it's clear that I will^D never see you^Dsus2 in my arms

There's^F#m no room in your^Bm heart for e^Bmven this finely-sharpened ^Dda^Dsus2rt

alth^Aough I ^F#mhad start^Bmed to think there might be ^Dhope it isn't s^Ao Bridge: A Bm F#m D Dsus2

So ^F#mwake up make up ^Bmsome new song aga^Din around the sam^Ae tune The water c^Aools the leaves they fall the sun it ben^Bmds the summer ends our so-calle^Dd friend doesn't ^Aneed you

^ASo proceed out the door and down th^Bme street December's lying near but in the ^F#moven's heat this house is now a^D h^Dsus2ome ^ASixty days of trips and stays you t^Bmook to tell me dear that you can^F#mnot love me because you secret^Dly^Dsus2 still love a stone

Although I ^F#mput my lips to your ^Bmface tr^Bmying to push his kiss out^D of its place

alt^Ahough my h^F#meart star^Bmted to race now it has s^Dlowed I'll let it go^A
