A# Ab D#
[Verse 1]
A#
Forget all the stones I threw
Ab
Intent on keeping you
A#
I lost my keys in a haze of blue
Ab D# A#
G crash, a trick of the light, all heady perfume
A#
We could trace that slow ellipse
Ab
All cheeks and fingertips
A#
And grasping with such grave grips
Ab D# A#
But then, the moment is done, our troubles resume
[Chorus]
Ab D#
I'm counting on a fat chance
Ab D#
And turning off the lights
Ab Cm F A# Ab
I think about you back wearing strands like every night
D# Ab
I'm clinging to a slim hope
D# Ab
G message in a leaf
Cm F A#
But we would think of seeds when we were as tall as trees
Ab
A# Ab D#
[Verse 2]
A#
Saw you once in a stranger dress
Ab
Confused by loneliness
A#
You were dressed up in nature's best
Ab D# A#
But then, they wouldn't let up, I couldn't break through
A#
And when all the dust has cleared
Ab
I'll still be sitting here
A#
All alone at the last frontier
Ab D# A#
But then, I give it all up, I leave it to you
[Chorus]
Ab D#
I'll take you to the west coast
Ab D#
We'll haunt it in your dreams
Ab Cm F A# Ab
We'll drive around like top down ghosts, stoned drunk and free, no no no
D# Ab
But of course you'll miss the seasons
D# Ab
The summer, winter tea
Cm F A#
The buttons on your big down coat are kind of neat
Ab D#
A# Ab D#
[Outro]
A# Ab D#
Gm I keeping you down?
A# Ab D# A#
Are you sticking around?
