Chords with lyrics
Damien Jurado - Working Titles
Some versions suggest this with a capo on 5th.
C/GC/G
You could mess up my life in a poem
G+G
Have me divorced by the time of the chorus
A minorAm
There's no need to change any sentence
F/CF/C
When you always decide where I go next
C/GC/G
Many nights you would hide from the audience
G+G
When they were not in tune with your progress
A minorAm
In the end you're a fool like the journalist
F/CF/C
Who turns what you sing into business
C/GC/G
You could use to be more like a hero
G+G
A augmentedA darker shade of damage distortion
A minorAm
Wearing death like a cape or a costume
F/CF/C
Cut your ties and leave town when you want to
C/GC/G
Killing time 'til I pass through the chamber
G+G
Or the room you keep my replacement
A minorAm
so fed up, still you're starving on paper
F/CF/C
You're no him, but he's you, only better
C/GC/G
Leave me an exit to damage
G+G
I could use a ledge to jump off of
A minorAm
I wasn't lying when I said this was over
F/CF/C
I have questions that lead to more questions
C/GC/G
Running time that will cut off my fingers
G+G
You wrote about me on every new record
A minorAm
And I'll show up in a title of your song
F/CF/C
I only hope somebody requests it
C/GC/G G+G A minorAm F/CF/C
What's it like for you in Washington
C/GC/G G+G A minorAm F/CF/C
I've only seen photos of Washington
C/GC/G
I'll never know
C/GC/G
Leave me Manhattan, I want the evergreens
G+G
Write me a song I can sing in my sleep
A minorAm
As sure as the rain that will fall where you stand
F/CF/C
I want you and the skyline, these are my demands
C/GC/G
What's it like for you in Washington
G+G
I've only seen photos of Washington
C/GC/G
I'll never know
