  			Intro: Gsus4   Am   G 


Verso 1:
Gsus4 
Call her my tangerine 

Plastic stones glued to her jeans 
     Am                G 
Only says the word she means 
Gsus4 
Walking 8th Avenue 

Taped up Payless soccer shoes 
           Am        G 
Hunts down smokes or Mountain Dew 
          D 
Waits for something else to do 

 
G    D             Am         C 
Deep breath, don't let on the truth 

It gets to you 
G   D         Am 
Bar light and guitar 
C 
Repay the peace you're due 
Em7        D#maj7             Dsus4          A7 
One bright day you learned to live the other way 
                   Gsus4 
Your big debut 


Verso 2: 
Gsus4 
Call her my country star 

Sleeps on Hawthorne Boulevard 
           Am 
Sport coat torn up at the yarn 
Gsus4 
Never did learn to swim 

Lives on candy bars and gin 
           Am 
Phones old friends for "How ya been's" 
        G                A7 
Finds a fool to take him in 


G    D             Am         C 
Deep breath, don't let on the truth 

It gets to you 
G   D         Am 
Bar light and guitar 
C 
Repay the peace you're due 
Em7        D#maj7             Dsus4          A7 
One bright day you learned to live the other way 

Ponte:
B7            C                  G 
They asked if I heard where they found you Tuesday night 
B7        C             G   Am 
I had the update coming via satellite 
A7            C 
They blew the doors out 
         G         F#/G    Em 
Tore the sheetrock off the studs 
          Am          C                           A7 
They were asking everyone if we knew what year it was 

 
G    D             Am         C 
Deep breath, don't let on the truth 

It gets to you 
G   D         Am 
Bar light and guitar 
C 
Repay the peace you're due 
G        D 
Kid in a campground 
    Am              C 
You sit at home and stew 
Em7        D#maj7             Dsus4          A7 
One bright day you learned to live the other way
