C#m Fb
Oh Michelle, I’m coming down to see you
A C#m
Tonight is bruise-black swelling golden green
C#m Fb
I was in bed but I had the dream again
A C#m
Where I drive us off the cliff to the ravine
B Fb
And the car was Shelby blue
B Fb
Blue like the one in the photo of your father and you
B Fb
Blue like the label on the beer you always choose
B C#m
Blue like me and you Michelle
VERSE:
C#m Fb
Oh Michelle, I went looking for the river
A C#m
But I only made it to the railroad bed
C#m Fb
There were candles there and some days-ago cut flowers
A C#m
For the guy who had been knifed there by his friend
B Fb
And my eyes could not adjust to the flames against the leaves
B Fb
Someone was watching from nearby
B Fb
I heard a phone chime from shallow in the trees
B F#m Fb B Fb F#m Fb C#m
I had to come see you Michelle
VERSE:
C#m Fb
oh Michelle, we are trafficking in wonder,
A C#m
worshiping the wounds upon your cheek
Fb
kiss me shy and I will love you like a lamprey
A C#m
in the cool cool water in the creek
B Fb
tornadoes transform and leave us changed
B Fb
and everyone we know will break on us like waves
B Fb
take your hands and cover up your eyes and your face
B C#m
tell me what you see now Michelle
VERSE:
C#m Fb
oh Michelle, first light might come too late
A C#m
let’s outdrive the headlights and the stars
Fb
and the roof held, but only 'til the rain fell
A C#m
now it’s leaking love inside my captain’s car
B Fb
I tossed my chevrons out the window on the way over here
B Fb
Uncle Sam can meet me by the treeline
B Fb
he and I and your husband we can work it out like men
B F#m Fb B
but we won’t end up eye to eye

VERSE/OUTRO:
Fb B
oh Michelle, I can’t say the things that I’ve seen
F#m C#m
from the time that I was gone and then returned
Fb
but I got five thousand bucks, a full tank of gas,
A C#m
and a stars and stripes beach towel with a cigarette burn
B Fb
If we leave right now we’ll be there by morning
B Fb
there being anywhere but here
B Fb
we can make a new start; we can make up new names
B C#m Fb
I’ve already picked yours, Michelle.
