Intro:

D MajorD G+G D MajorD G+G


Verse:

        D MajorD *
I'm stuck on a memory,
     G+G *              D MajorD *     A augmentedA * G+G *
Of you dancing in a backyard in North Jersey.
          D MajorD *
You're holding sparklers,
    G+G *                  D MajorD *     A augmentedA * G+G *
And silhouetted by the porch lights on a summer evening.
       Bmaj   Amaj      Gmaj     (feel free to mute lower strings
So, while I'm pulling my gloves off with my teeth,    for these bar chords)
   Bmaj     Amaj    Gmaj
It occurred to me you used to be happy.

Chorus:

       D MajorD       A augmentedA G+G
I curse the dashboard heat,
G+G
It's fucking freezing.
 D MajorD          A augmentedA G+G
Asleep in the backseat,
G+G               B minorBm    Gmaj
Oh god, I'm shaking. I'm empty.
Gmaj    B minorBm    Gmaj
I feel so damn empty.


Interlude:

D MajorD G+G D MajorD G+G


Verse:

      D MajorD *
I keep thinking
         G+G *              D MajorD *        A augmentedA * G+G *
That I'll feel better when it's warmer across state lines.
      D MajorD *
Now I'm scraping
 G+G *                D MajorD *          A augmentedA * G+G *
Ice off of the windshield with a piece of broken taillight.
 Bmaj      Amaj      Gmaj
Oh, I wouldn't quite call it homesick
       Bmaj    Amaj    Gmaj
but I keep seeing your face in the northbound traffic.

Chorus:

       D MajorD       A augmentedA G+G
I curse the dashboard heat,
G+G
It's fucking freezing.
 D MajorD          A augmentedA G+G
Asleep in the backseat,
G+G            B minorBm   Gmaj
Oh god, I'm shaking. I'm empty.
Gmaj     B minorBm   Gmaj
I feel so damn empty.


Bridge:

  Amaj      Bmaj   Amaj
I'm gonna go to Georgia.
Gmaj           Amaj
I'm gonna smile in the sun.
           Bmaj   Amaj Gmaj
I'm gonna pick you some wild day-lilies,
                  E minor 7Em7
And I'm gonna hold on to them.
              G+G
I'm gonna keep them in my pocket
 E minor 7Em7        G+G    E minor 7Em7
Til you let me back home.
         G+G
I'm gonna go to Georgia,
  E minor 7Em7
And I'm coming back whole.


Chorus:

       D MajorD *      A augmentedA * G+G *
I curse the dashboard heat,

It's fucking freezing.
 D MajorD *         A augmentedA * G+G *
Asleep in the backseat,
             B minorBm     Gmaj
Oh god, I'm shaking. I'm empty.
Gmaj     B minorBm     Gmaj
I feel so damn empty.


       D MajorD       A augmentedA G+G
I curse the dashboard heat,
G+G
It's fucking freezing.
 D MajorD          A augmentedA G+G
Asleep in the backseat,
G+G            B minorBm     Gmaj
Oh god, I'm shaking. I'm empty.
Gmaj     B minorBm     Gmaj
