i [f]put on that sweater you [c]gave me
i [am]woke up in the kitchen a [g]few minutes later
i [f]didn’t know how i had [c]gotten there
did you [g]guide me?
i [f]didn’t make it to your [c]funeral
i didn’t want [am]ritual or [g]resign
i just [f]wanted to hold [c]hands with
[f]j.p and [c]mary-jo
but i [f]couldn’t conjure [c]tears
we’re too [am]good for stupid [g]angels
mike just [f]held his breath [c]beside me
and burned the [f]air ’til it was [c]gone
’til it was [f]gone[c]
’til it was [f]gone[g]

[f]hooo-oh — [c]hoo hooo
[f]hooo [c]ahhhhh
[f]hooo-oh – [c]hoo hoo [g]hoo
couldn’t [f]pay my respects to a [c]dead man
your [am]life was much more to [g]me
and i [f]chased away with [c]sticks and stones
but that [f]rage kept following [c]me
following [f]me[c]
following [f]me[g]
so [f]lost i would sleep in the [c]palms of your hands
in [am]dreams we were happy and [g]safe
i [f]can’t comprehend the [c]ways that i miss you
they come to [f]light in my mis[c]takes
in my mis[f]takes[c]
in my mis[f]takes[g]
now i’m [f]driving down [em]tacoma way[g]
and [c]the world turns in slow [f]motion
it’s the [c]twilight of our [g]old home
and i’m [f]still in [g]love with [c]you
oh [f]here on south [em]tacoma way[g]
[c]we’ve memories for [f]matinees
and the [am]tears come warm and [g]heavy
and the [f]cross-streets [g]bear your [c]name
oh the [f]cross-streets [g]bear your [c]name
