G        Em                  C       A7             C
  In the stick-count for the song of knowing you're gone
G          Em              C                    A7   C
  Glancing up at where you lived when you lived here
G           Em        C        A7     C
  I see you suddenly alive and nearly smiling
G          Em                 C                 A7      C
  Stop and hold my breath and watch the way you used to be


[Chorus 1]

    D                     C                     Em    G     C(x2)

D                    C
  The full moon makes our faces shine
Em          G          C
  Like over-ironed polyester
D                C
  Then disappears behind the clouds
Em              G               C
  And leaves me under empty rows of night windows

G          Em                  C           A7       C
  We could walk to where these streets get pulled together
G            Em               C                   A7       C
  A blinking line with gravel shoulders squared towards an end
G           Em      C           A7       C
  Where the radio resounds from doppling traffic
G           Em                C              A7     C
  Where the power lines steal esses from the hourly news


[Chorus 2]

D             C
  De-pluralize our casualties
Em              G               C
  And drown the generals out in static
D                    C
  We'd turn and watch our city sprawl
Em            G                  C
  And send us signals in the glow of night windows
