F Am C C/B



♫ Verse :
F             Am
How you tapped on a box of blue American Spirits
C       C/B
At Anyway Cafe a little under a month
F                Am           C     C/B
Before the ashes and management capital files filled the streets
F               Am
How we wove through the cones walking home

To the place on Atlantic you shared with your hilarious sister
F              Am        C     C/B
Kicking off your black flats, demolished and laughing

♫ Chorus:
C       F
I keep what I can of you
G                    C
Split-second glimpses and snapshots and sounds
F
You in my New Order T-shirt

Holding a cat and a glass of beer



♫ Verse :
F          Am             C
When you rescued me from the customs cops in Hawaii
           C/B          F      Am
When I shut down the place with my Japanese novelty bomb
    C       C/B
And you dad came along
F           Am
How you had me lay down for a temperature check
C             C/B
With the cool of your hand on the back of my neck
F       Am            C     C/B
When I said, "I whink I'm finally going crazy for real"

I flicker through

I carry them with me like drugs in a pocket
C      F
You in a Kentucky aquarium
G
Talking to a shark in the corner

♫ Bridge:
Am      Em
You in a bath on the phone
F           G            Am
Telling somebody that maybe they're better off leaving
Em         F   G
Than staying in it alone
Am      Em
You in a bath on the phone
F           G            Am
Telling somebody that maybe they're better off leaving
Em         F   G
Than staying in it alone



♫ Verse :
F              Am
When you cried at the beach and recovered in seconds
C             C/B
And said everything's fine but I knew that it wasn't
F              Am         C   C/B
The you stayed out of reach of me for almost a year
F              Am
How you looked like a poster of a '70s movie
C            C/B          F
Standing outside at the base of your magazine skyscraper
Am        C        G
Waiting for me to go drinking downtown

♫ Chorus:
C       F
I keep what I can of you
G                    C
Split-second glimpses and snapshots and sounds

You in my New Order T-shirt
G
Holding a cat and a glass of beer
C     F
I flicker through
G                  C
I carry them with me like drugs in a pocket
      F
You in a Kentucky aquarium
G
Talking to a shark in the corner
C       F
I keep what I can of you
G                    C
Split-second glimpses and snapshots and sounds
