Verso:
Am
Slow is the memory
C
I can picture her standing right in front of me
Dm G
Orange blossoms crushed on concrete
Em Am
I walk around with bare feet
G Em
And I know you want me
Am
Can't remember everything
C
Her skin it tastes like sugar cane
Dm G
And I had already gotten there before I came
Em Am
My tank is empty
G Em
And I know you're thirsty
Am C Dm
I have already tried to explain myself
Dm F
It's not that I love someone else
F G Am
But I can't bear to listen to you cry
Am C
I'm sick of all these wasted years
Dm
A rag for someone else's tears
F G Am
I wring you out as I hang you out to dry
Am
C'mon C'mon
C
Get off the phone
Dm
Please come home
G
It's been so lonely since you've been gone
Am
you won't surround me
C
up and down me
Dm
Be all around me
G
Baby I can't breathe no more
