Verse 1:
A augmentedA                 D MajorD      E MajorE      D MajorD       E MajorE
 Knock so I'll know you're still there, half listening, interpreting the air.
A augmentedA             D MajorD     E MajorE     D MajorD       E MajorE
 Full of failing foreign tongue, my dialect of stammer come undone. I've got these
A augmentedA         F# minorF#m   D MajorD       E MajorE
threads of you and I that I use to tie my doubts down, and from
A augmentedA         F# minorF#m    D MajorD        E MajorE
four times-zones away, still yesterday, still talking to the
D MajorD
past: from the front seat of your car, gravel road and falling,

falling hands and falling star. Start the engine up.

Verse 2:
  A augmentedA         D MajorD   E MajorE        D MajorD      E MajorE
I'd  like a new identity. A augmentedA pseudonym. Some plastic surgery.
A augmentedA             D MajorD     E MajorE        D MajorD       E MajorE
  Or just some way to disappear. Someone to write me out of here. I hear you hum an
A augmentedA     F# minorF#m      D MajorD        E MajorE
unfamiliar song. Thought maybe you would come along.
  A augmentedA         F# minorF#m   D MajorD         E MajorE
Perhaps you'd like to see some piece of this; my new philosophy is that a
D MajorD
  crappy tape deck somewhere plays a greatest hits collection of strange and tender moments,
               A augmentedA
lost, stranded, and forgotten.


Bridge:
E MajorE        F# minorF#m  D MajorD  A augmentedA
  I'll meet you there.
E MajorE        F# minorF#m  D MajorD  (A augmentedA)
  I'll meet you there.

Verse 3:
A augmentedA            D MajorD     E MajorE       D MajorD          E MajorE
  Something I forgot to say: can't find a way to make this mark more clear.
A augmentedA                 D MajorD       E MajorE        D MajorD       E MajorE
  So crack your skull before you weep, and I'll try to keep some part of me sincere.
