Verse 1:
C   Em G C

C                                  Em G
   It's 'cause you're out of sight
C                           Em G
   She wants an explanation
C                             Em G
   She wants to tell you that
C                                     Em G
   Didn't know what'd made me run for
C                           Em G
   Don't think there is one
C                           Em G
   She wants an explanation
C                                    Em G
   She wants to know what went wrong
C                                     Em G
   Didn't know what'd made me run for
C                                  Em G
   Really don't think there is one
C                           Em G
   She wants an explanation
C                                     Em G
   Didn't know what'd made me run for
C                           C
   She wants an explanation
Em G C C
Em G C C
Verse 2:
Em    G             C
   Wonder if I'll try to remember
Em    G             C
   Wonder if I'll try to remember
Em    G             C
   Wonder if I'll try to remember
Em    G             C
   Wonder if I'll try
Em                G              C
   This whiskey's just as dry as I am
Em                 G              C
   She'd look more beautiful if she'd cried
Em        G        C
   I just wanna lie down
Em          G            C
   Have an emotional breakdown
Em            G            C
   If I get a map and follow down
Em              G                      C
   And alphabet written on the manhole smiling there, it means I
Em                G           C
   I finally hold your head high
Em               G            C
   Slip into the mood of our lie
Em           G                C
   I finally hold your head high
Em                       G          C
   Looks like it's gonna be a long ride

Verse 3: now, hold 3rd fret on the high Eb string for the Em and C chords
Em C D D
Em C D D

Em          C         D
   So we'll just give up
          D              Em
And we'll keep on going over
         C                  D
Learn to keep your mouth shut
  D                Em       C     D
Regret it all if I find the enemy hands
D                 Em
Never fights with me
    C         D            D           Em
But all these ghosts never leave me alone
          C     D    D
Give everyone a call
Em                C            D      D
   Tell them we hope to see them soon
Em      C                       D  D
   Give everyone who's dead a call
Em               C                 D       D
   Tell them you think you'll be home soon

Outro:
Em            C                   D                  D
   Try not to sleep and scare yourself with all your pictures

Verse 1:
E          Esus4 C#m  B
There will be no tragedies
E             Esus4         C#m           B          E Esus4 C#m B
   Your lullabies, they are sounding like sirens now
E                   Esus4             C#m             B
Just like Heather Rhodes when she was seventeen years old
E           Esus4      C#m       B                 E Esus4 C#m B
Put another cigarette out in the square of my back

   This isn't an insult  to your intelligence

We both already know how you feel about that

   This isn't an invite, this isn't anything at all
E    Esus4        C#m              B                 E Esus4 C#m B
   Except for the fact that you're here and I'm gone

Verse 3:
E              Esus4           C#m       B
Saw someone today who looked exactly like you

It's funny how the years go by
E              Esus4          C#m        B
Saw someone today who looked exactly like you
     E               Esus4    C#m B
