Verse 1:
D A Bm A
A man selling knives at three A.M on TV
D A Bm A
With the sound off I re-read your mothers letter I can't sleep
D A Bm A
I almost sent her my only picture unframed
D A Bm A
Of you have five With your book on trains
D A Bm A F#5
But she told me not to write or call but she apologized when you put the TV through the wall
D A Bm A
She thinks it was me that brought you to Berkeley, like you never touched whiskey before me
Chorus 1:
F#5 E5 B5 D5
And living with you is like driving in the rain
F#5 E5 B5 D5
I can't see where I'm going but i still don't press the brake
Verse 2:
D A Bm A
What happened after the year that we got through maybe even with the belt that I bought you
D A Bm A
A woman is strapping her arm, after fighting she's finally calm
D A Bm A
I can hear you say her name appeasingly, like you did with mine when you were teasing me
D A Bm A
By midnight each night we had sunk to the floor on the deflating air mattress we blamed the cats for
D A Bm A
When you looked at me as you stood in the door I rolled my eyes and turned on law and order
Chorus 2:
F#5 E5 B5 D5
And living with you and being blindfolded are the same
F#5 E5 B5 D5
I can't see where I'm going and it makes my head ache
D A Bm A
Now the TVs is replaying Annie Hall and I swear Woody Allen has your walk
D A Bm A
I squint my eyes and see you with Annie arm and arm with the sound off I hear the alarm
Chorus 3:
F#5 E5 B5 D5
And living with you is like hair going down the drain
F#5 E5 B5 D5
We lose and lose until we're drowning in a lake
Interlude: F#5, E5, B5, D5
D F#5
I drove out to see you in your best friends car Looking for your name we walked in circles for an hour
D A
And in the end we chose a spot and took turns, I sat down
Bm A
And told you something and picked the dried grass on the ground
Chorus 4:
F#5 E5 B5 D5
And living with guilt is counting up your sins
F#5 E5 B5 D5
I can only look back and see where i've been
F#5 E5 B5 D5
But I couldn't stop what you did to your veins
F#5 E5 D5
And you wouldn't have allowed me anyway
