Napkin Poetry chords by Minor Majority

Intro/riff Am - C - G - F
Filler between refrain and verse is Dm - G


Am                    C
   I came to feel the Lemonheads

   G                      F
or whatever you wanted to feel

Am                          C
   When Julianna played the base guitar

        G                     F
And the smoke was to thick to breathe

Dm                   G                                C
   They came in late looking like they'd rather be at home

                          F
That was fashionable back then

Dm                               G                            C
Evan wore his favourite tee that i recall from posters on her wall

                       F
Some country dude from way back when


Am                       C
   I knew she'd be there anyway

G                     F
   So I didn't care to call

Am                         C
   A few nervous drinks and then we headed back

G                        F
   To the posters on her wall


Dm                   G
   Two more weeks of school and then we're off forever

C                                F
   You might have told me not to wait

Dm                       G
I wrote napkin poetry on days skipping towards the summer

G                 F
  Another leap of faith


Am                     C
   Fall brings out the best in me

G                             F
   The cold recites inside my chest

Am                            C
   When the leaves pile up in heaps around the threes

G                  F
   And i end up my best


Dm               G                              C
   No amounts of calm can make me forget what i want

                      F
Or the chances that i blew

Dm                     G                           C
   So while i wait for winther and for darkness to arrive

                     F
I long for something new


Am                   C
   I spin the record patiently

G                               F
   I like the fact it's not too long

Am                    C
   Julianna plays the base guitar

G                            F
And Evan still cares for his songs


Dm                    G                      C
   But i write napkin poetry but never about her

                     F
or the way we oughta be

Dm               G
   Josephine she slipped into those summer nights

    C                            F
but Allison's still happening to me
