capo: 3rd fret[intro]
F Am C G
[verse (1)]
F how you tapped on a box of Amblue american spirits
C at anyway cafe aG little under a month
beFfore the ashes and management Amcapital files filled the sCtreets G---
F how we wove through the cones Amwalking home
to the place on atClantic you shared with your hiGlarious sister
F kicking off your black flatAms, demolished and Claughing G--
[chorus]
C i keep what i Fcan of you
G split-second glimpses and snapshots and Csounds
Fyou in my new order t-shirt
G holding a cat and a glass of beer
[verse (2)]
F when you rescued me Amfrom the customs cops in haCwaii
when i shut down the pGlace with my japanese Fnovelty bomb
Am and your Cdad came aGlong
F how you had me lay dowAmn for a temperature check
C with the cool of your hand on the Gback of my neck
F when i said, "i tAmhink i'm finally goingC crazy for real"
[chorus]
C i keep what i Fcan of you
G split-second glimpses and snapshots and sounds
C you in my new order t-Fshirt
holding a cat Gand a glass of beer
C i flicker tFhrough
G i carry them with me like drugs in a pocket
C you in a kenFtucky aquarium
G talking to a shark in a corner
[bridge]
Am you in a batEmh on the phone
Ftelling somebody that Gmaybe they're better off Amleaving
Em than staying in itF alone G--
Am you in a batEmh on the phone
Ftelling somebody that Gmaybe they're better off Amleaving
Em than staying in itF alone G--
[verse (3)]
F when you cried at the beacAmh and recovered in seconds
C and said everything's fineG, but i knew that it wasn't
F then you stayed out of reach Amof me for almost a Cyear G--
F how you looked like a postAmer of a '70s movie
C standing outside at the Gbase of your magazine sFkyscraper
Am waiting for me to Cgo drinking downGtown
[chorus]
C i keep what i Fcan of you
G split-second glimpses and snapshots and sounds
C you in my new order t-Fshirt
holding a cat Gand a glass of beer
C i flicker tFhrough
G i carry them with me like drugs in a pocket
C you in a kenFtucky aquarium
G talking to a shark in a corner
C i keep what i Fcan of you
G split-second glimpses and snapshots and sounds
C you in my new order t-Fshirt
holding a cat Gand a glass of beer
C i flicker tFhrough
G i carry them with me like drugs in a pocket
C you in a kenFtucky aquarium
G talking to a shark in a corner
