[Verse]
     Dsus2                     Gm
Dear Avery, I think of you only
         Dsus2                             Gm
Were you waving? Were you dead on the vine?
     Dsus2                     Gm
Oh Avery, I think of you lonely
                Dsus2                             Gm
But I could just grab you by the nape of your neck

[Chorus]
        A               G                       D
There are times life will rattle your bones and will bend your limbs
             A                G                D
You're still far and away the boy you've ever been
       A             G             D
So you bend back and shake at the frame Of the frame you made
    Bm               A           G
But don't you shake alone
       Em        A
Please Avery-y-y-y, come home

[Verse]
(Dsus2 Gm)
Headstrong, you and your long arms
Listing lazily on the cusp of your teens
But you were my Avery and when you needed saving
I could just grab you by the nape of your neck

[Chorus]
        A               G                       D
There are times life will rattle your bones and will bend your limbs
             A                G                D
You're still far and away the boy you've ever been
       A             G             D
So you bend back and shake at the frame Of the frame you made
    Bm               A           G
But don't you shake alone
       Em        A
Please Avery-y-y-y, come home

[Outro]
Bm         A      G
(Don't you shake alone!)
       Em        A
Please Avery-y-y-y, come home
Dsus2 Gm
