Intro:

E A E A x2

Verse 1:

E              A              E        A          E
We met at the gas station and wandered round all day

E
Then we went home and

E            A                  E       A E
Sat sad-eyed in the darkness and played GTA

A                       F#m
And the people all were simulacrum

     B
Just waiting to be slain

   E                     A
So I took the Black Hawk helicopter

    E           A           E
And watched the sun set over San Andreas


Pre-Chorus:

   A
If I'd only known

          B
When I was seventeen

   A         E       A        E
Oh what that gesture seems to mean

A
That the world is full

   B                    A         F#m       E
Of shimmering fish, and bulls and honey and rain


Chorus:

D                               Em
In marched your father with his golden arm

         C
With his shirt undone

        D                     Em
And his heart undone he said "son"

        C
And you moved your thumb

                         D
Got out of the car and unloaded your gun

   G(7)            Am
Oh Tom, you were a lonely one

       G
In the basement room

          Em       D
That your dad blew through

   Bm
Oh Tom


E A E A x2

Verse 2:

     E                 A
Your mother brought us Coca-Cola

    E     A          E
And so we paused the game

Coca-Cola

E                   A
Your character was in mid-air

         E         A        E
With an expression close to shame

            A           F#m
And then he fell upon a woman who

  B
Appeared to mouth your name

    E              A
And you got in the nearest car

    E         A           E
And lit right out for the equator


Pre-Chorus:

   A
If I'd only known

          B
When I was seventeen

   A         E       A        E
Oh what that gesture seems to mean

A
That the world is full

   B                    A         F#m       E
Of shimmering fish, and bulls and honey and rain


Chorus:

D                               Em
In marched your father with his golden arm

         C
With his shirt undone

        D                     Em
And his heart undone he said "son"

        C
And you moved your thumb

                         D
Got out of the car and unloaded your gun

   G(7)            Am
Oh Tom, you were a lonely one

       G
In the basement room

          Em       D
That your dad blew through

   Bm
Oh Tom


Verse 3:

D                          Em
In March the crocuses were all in bloom

           C
And we got off of the couch

           D
And walked out of your room

       Em                 C
I said "Tom, you see it's true

              D
You love the world and the world

She loves you."
