Tom: Bm
Bm F#7/A# G D
It starts with a box of borrowed greeting cards
Bm F#7/A# G D Bm
You could play your part drop a line and steal a heart, or two
Bm F#7/A# G D
And pin down the thing the vagabond kid
Bm F#7/A# G D G
Said cuz he's gone he'll be, caught by cops by the dawn's first steps
[Chorus]
G D G
You may be kinder than most I don't know
G D
And I don't quite care to know
G D
Your cotton hands ask to be diggin' in
Em
Like a last dance before a wasteland I can
Em Bm F#7/A#
See all the floor plans just fine
[Instrumental]
Bm F#7/A# (x3)
[Verse 2]
Bm F#7/A# G D
Why don't you tell me all about those cool friends you have?
Bm F#7/A# G D
The girl who sold you drugs with the faintest stench
Bm F#7/A# G D
She's gonna hook you up with the nicest game
Bm F#7/A# G D
You're gonna be someone
Bm F#7/A# G D
We're all gonna be someone
[Chorus]
G D G
You may be kinder than most I don't know
G D
And I don't quite care to know
G D A/C#
You may be awful and I may be shallow or
G D A/C#
Say that I am just to cover my ass
[Bridge]
G D
And you've got the perfect face for me
G D A/C#
And what comes next is adequately temporary
G D
Takin' this phone call now leavin' this restaurant
G D
Before I'm all empty before all this poetry
G D Dsus D
Gets too heavy on me
[Tag]
Em
Thanks for the memories, good luck with the story and
Em G D
You were alright to me, it's been nice to know you
G D G D G D Bm F#7/A#
Now it's very nice to meet you, I didn't quite catch your name
