     C 
Dear long, dark hair, 
                Am 
I write cause I know you'll forget You could be 
Em             F             C        G 
Sea green in a wastebasket tomorrow 
     C                      Am 
No repulsion toward my premature indulgences 
       Em             F      G 
If you can't recall a word I said 
               F 
Not like those cheekbones 
             Fm 
That crooked nose 
         Am             Am/G#    Am/G    Am/F#  
No, those fellas stick around too long 
             F                              G 
Perpetuating every pathetic word that I skew into song 


C          Am 
Em    F    G 


           C 
She was my trophy shelf of slip ups 
           Am 
My untamed hormonal Loch Ness shitshow 
   Em           F          C         G 
On late night rotation for months on end 
  C 
A brick boot swimming lesson 
            Am 
In the deep end of my adolescence 
          Em           F           G 
Scrawling notes on the backs of my hands 

               F 
But I'll start fresh with you 
  Fm                    Am 
Extracting the rusted attachments 
            Am/G#                    Am/G     Am/F# 
Keeping the diehard nuts, bolts, and screws 
F 
We'll go from square one 
         G 
With the wit of an old pro 
    Am                  Am/G#     Am/G              Am/F# 
And you can fill in the gaps with whatever you know 
   F     G    C 
My long, dark hair  



I was too lazy to tab out all the fingerings but here's the intro to give you an idea: 
   C                                      Am 
eb|----------------------------------------------------------------0----------| 
Bb|---------------------------1-----------------------------------------------| 
Gb|--------0---0---0-----0-------0-----0---------2--2----2-----2------2----2--| 
Db|----2-------------0h2-----------0h2-------2-------------0h2----------2-----| 
Ab|-3----3------3-----------3-------------0----0------0----------0------------| 
Eb|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| 


And I'll tab this part out because it's the most difficult section: 

   Am                  Am/G#            Am/G              Am/F# 
eb|---------------------------0---------------------------------------------| 
Bb|--------1-----------------------------------1-----------------1----------| 
Gb|------------2-----------------2----------------2----2------------2---2---| 
Db|----2-------------2----2-----------2----2---------2-------2--------2-----| 
Ab|-0----0-------0----------------------------------------------------------| 
Eb|--------------------4----4------4----3----3------------2----2------------|
