Neon Middle June chords by John Moreland

🎸 Intro:

C   Am   G    (x2)



🎸 Verse 1:
C                 Am     G                C
Deep in the city wild, stray dogs in the sky
                 F                 G          C
Drawing perfect circles with your helicopter eye
                    Am       G               C
Well I got eyes for no one, no one else but you
             F                G         C
Below the epidermis with the epidemic blues

🎸 Verse 2:
                 Am           G           C
When you were a child, your faith was automatic
                   F           G              C
Asleep in steady traffic, navigating western static
Am     G             C
And what if who I am is who I used to be?
                    F                      G         C
Darling, you know that's the thought that paralyzes me

🎸 Chorus:
Am     G     C
Neon middle June
Dm
Coloring the room
          Em        F        Am      G      F   C   Am   G
Hold me close, the January night is coming soon

🎸 Verse 3:
C             Am            G          C
Lov? is complicated, like any living thing
             Am                G           C
You left m? buzzing with your sympathetic ring
                    Am              G            C
And time continues working, with an unrelenting hand
                   F                   G             C   Dm
Darling, draw the curtain, there's so much to understand

🎸 Chorus:
Am     G     C
Neon middle June

Hold me close, the January night is coming soon
Dm
Empty as a tomb
          Em        F        Am      G      F   C
Hold me close, the January night is coming soon
