Chords with lyrics

Intro
DmDm

Verse I

     C majorC
Well the room was Mediterranean
  A minorAm
The meaning was twofold
    FF
We got busted by your mother
       DmDm
Though you're 29 years old
    C majorC
And the pictures wrapped in cellophane
   A minorAm
Like sandwiches or stamps
FF
Burnholes in my pockets
      DmDm
And in the inseams of my pants

     C majorC
And your graduation date
     A minorAm
was in absentia* today
    FF
And you wished you woulda stuck with him
      DmDm
Though you told him not to stay
    C majorC
And the redwoods and the oak trees
    A minorAm
And the double yellow lines
     FF
Although they're in perfect symmetry
   DmDm
They keep imperfect time

Chorus (play 2x)

       C majorC
I don't mean no,
    A minorAm
I don't maybe
        FF
I'm in definitely
        DmDm
I'm in definitely

Verse II

C majorC
Well your car was Japanese
    A minorAm
perhaps Hungarian and blue
     FF
And it followed you down highway 1,
   DmDm
kept almost out of view
      C majorC
And it symbolizes something
       A minorAm
although you don't know what it is
    FF
Like loneliness or longing
    DmDm
for a future perfect kiss

Repeat chorus

       C majorC
I don't mean no,
    A minorAm
I don't maybe
        FF
I'm in definitely
        DmDm
I'm in definitely

Bridge

(solo plays over verse)

C majorC
The second hand's the first thing that you see when you wake up
    DmDm
And it goes by in slow motion, and you rub it for good luck
    C majorC
Time is gonna tell your little secrets to me
      DmDm
There's a frightened girl inside of you and I'm gonna set her free
