White Lights
From the album Last Days of Wonder
[INTRO]
Em Bm C Am Em
[VERSE 1]
WEmhenEm/F# you wGalked with me
away from the strip mall bCar
aC/Bcross the hAmighway
to that lDittle graveyGard D
Where plGastic flowers
bloomed in yellow grCass
wC/Be sat Amon a broken bDench
lCistening to the cars pGass
And rGight above your head
in the brCanches of a tree
C/Bthere were whAmite lights
swaying slDowly in the brGeeze D
[CHORUS]
There were wEmhite lights,
whBmite lights,
whCite lights
swAmaying in a tEmree
[VERSE 2]
Em/F# I knGow they were there
to stop kCids kicking over graves C/B
or spAmray-painting trDee trunks
with their fCavorite rock band's nGame
But sGitting there with you
almost tCouching your white hand
amC/Bong the brAmoken bottles
crDushed and faded cGansD
[CHORUS]
And those wEmhite lights,
whBmite lights,
whCite lights
swAmaying in the brEmeeze
[VERSE 3]
TherEm/F#e was mGystery
singing from everythCing C/B
the stAmrip mall, the hDighway
the bCoarded-up skating rGink
They were cGalling our names
in the strCip mall parking lot
ouC/Br sweet drAmunken friends
finally nDoticing we'd gGoneD
But wGe just sat there
not sCaying anything
alC/Bmost tAmouching hands your hDair
flying Cin the highway brGeezeD
[CHORUS]
Like those whEmite lights,
whBmite lights,
whCite lights
swAmaying in a tEmree Em/F#
