Verse
A C#7
Oh, the last time I saw Paul
Emadd9 D E7
I was horrible and almost let him in
A C#7
But I stopped and caught the wall
Emadd9 D E7 A
And my mouth got dry so all I did was take him for a spin
[Verse 2]
A C#7
Yeah, we hopped inside my car
Emadd9 D E7
And I drove in circles 'round the freight train yard
A C#7
And he turned the headlights off
Emadd9 D
Then he pulled the bottle out
E7 A
Then he showed me what was love
[Chorus]
D
I'll be your morning bright, goodnight shadow machine
A
I'll be your record player baby if you know what I mean
D
I'll be your real tough cookie with the whiskey breath
A
I'll be a killer and a thriller and the cause of our death
[Verse 3]
A C#7
In the blossom of the months
Emadd9 D E7
I was sure that I'd get driven off with thought
A C#7
So I swallowed all of it
Emadd9 D E7 A
As I realized there was no one who could kiss away my shit
[Chorus]
D
I'll be your morning bright, goodnight shadow machine
A
I'll be your record player baby if you know what I mean
D
I'll be your real tough cookie with the whiskey breath
A
I'll be a killer and a thriller and the cause of our death
[Verse 4]
A C#7 Emadd9 D E7
Paul, I know you said that you'd take me any way I came or went
A C#7
But I'll push you from my brain
Emadd9
See, you're gentle baby
D E7 A
I couldn't stay, I'd only bring you pain
[Chorus]
D
I was your starry-eyed lover and the one that you saw
A
I was your hurricane rider and the woman you'd call
D
We were just two moonshiners on the cusp of a breath
A E A
And I've been burning for you baby since the minute I left
