DBright blue hydrangeas GLost in the weeds D Bus stops and barbed wire on the way to sGtare At the heart of the earth from the PoasEm peak Just like the ones that we grew back in JGersey Em Hung upside down, drying out for the Gwedding
[Verse 2]
DThere's a man with his head in his hands on the Gsidewalk DHis wife's there behind him just off of the Gstreet DShe scratches his back as he sobs on the aGsphalt D And what strikes me most is the sGymmetry How they're framed just like Emyou and me When the light from the hospital's eGastern wing Tangles Emup in your hair and the sadness it pooled in my hGeart Starts emptying sloGwly
[Chorus]
WellD I C#msaw yBmou last niAght in my dGream And there were hDydraC#mngeasBm whereA your face shouldG be
[Verse 3]
DThe redwoods feel lonely and lunar and Gdistant D The sun comes in fragments through breaks in the tGrees D And I feel further from home than I've ever Gbeen These thin lines of light across space tether you tGo me They pull in my mEmemories, back to our apartment on 2Gnd Street Through tEmhe South-facing window the light catches lengths of your Ghair
Like a path that you left me [Chorus]
Well DI sC#maw yoBmu last nAight in my dGream But there were aDzalC#meas wheBmre your fAace should Gbe

I've been thinking a Glot about GWhen the furnace goes It's the absence of Bmheat that hurts more than the Acold And I got caught in the Girony of walking alone Down an enBmtire block that's just funeral Ahomes and the ground below
[Chorus]
DSad and sober Sunday afternoon GSad and Dsober Sunday afternoon Bbm You disappear in Bmfragments and Aphases of the moon GSad and Dsober Sunday afternoon Bbm You disappear in Bmfragments and Aphases of the moon G Bm A

I watched parts of Gyou dissolve Turn to ash and then get carried Bmup I watched your memory Afade Shadows burned into the Gwall And no, I felt my lungs turn into atom Bmbombs Choke on the Florida Aheat until the oxygen's gone
[Chorus]
GSad and Dsober, Sunday afternoon Bbm You disappear in Bmfragments and Aphases of the moon GSad and Dsober, Sunday afternoon Bbm You disappear in Bmfragments and Aphases of the moon Em Bm Or an empty Groom D F#m Or the twelve-bar Emblues Bm Or a light in GJune D F#m

You were a Embandit, and I was a Bmcar wreck You were the Grifle on the wall And it was Dalways gonna F#mend
You were a Embandit, and I was a Bmcar wreck You were the Gfalse rain that falls From a Dwindow AC F#munit
You were a Embandit, and I was a Bmcar wreck You were the Grifle on the wall N.C.And it was always going to end like this
