Tom: Am

                     F
If these shoes could tell the tales
                               C
The miles walked tryin' to get back to you
                     Am
Gettin’ drunk and starin' at the mo-oon
                       C
What on earth are you out there doin'

                       Dm
Cause when you slid my necklace clasp
Am                G
To the back of my neck
            Dm
Oh, tingle, I should have kissed you
Am            G
When our eyes met

                              Am
Doesn’t she look lovely right there?
                  G
Best to leave it, I suppose
                                Am
You ran your fingers through my hair
              G
And I felt it in my bones

                  F
I'd be a skeleton for you
           C
Ribcage sunken through
                  F
I'd be a skeleton for you
                 C
Narrow white and shadow blue
               Am G C F C
I'd be a skeleton
               Am G C F C
I'd be a skeleton

               F
If these hands had a voice
                                     C
They'd talk only of the night they'd held you
     Am                                   G
In a dorm room, cheeks flushing red as my blood

                        Am
We'll keep quiet not to stir the dust
                 G
The circumstance surrounding us
             F               C
The whisper, don’t leave the tune
F            C           G
That we have built right here

                  F
I’d be a skeleton for you
        C
Ribcage sunken through
                  F
I'd be a skeleton for you
                 C
Narrow white and shadow blue
               Am G C F C
I’d be a skeleton
               Am G C F C
I'd be a skeleton

                             Am
It's all just 'what ifs’ and guesses
           C
Streetlamp confessions
                 Dm
If I took a left turn 'round
                       C
I think I'd wind up at your house

                           Am
You'd like to stay up late drawin'
                                C
You told me once you thought it calmin'
                    G
Maybe I'll turn out to see
                     Dm
Maybe you're brittle like me
                     Am
Maybe you're brittle like me
                    G
Think I'll turn out to see
                     Dm      Am
Maybe you're brittle like me
                     Dm      Am
Maybe you're brittle like me
