D A
And I'd write you a letter
G
To explain all my actions
Bm A
But I'd only take it too far again,
D A
And you'll consign me to that shoebox
G Bm
Underneath the place where you hang your coats,
A
On a par with train tickets and badges.
D A G
Well maybe that's justice,
Bm A
On a par with train tickets and badges,
G
I'll be at home with objects
Bm A
That can pierce your heart and
G Bm A
Take you far away.
D
Paint me with loyal marks,
A G
At least ignore me with feeling.
Bm A
Good arms. Painter.
(x2)
D A
And the style of her dress
G
Is no longer screaming A line,
Bm
Simply saying that the rest
A
Of the alphabet
D A G
Had gone away
Bm A D
To spell other words and phrases that day
A G Bm A
So there was no "U" to be found.
D A G Bm A
Only memories of "x"'s.
D A G Bm A
Only memories of "x"'s.
D
Paint me with loyal marks,
A G
At least ignore me with feeling.
Bm A
Good arms. Painter.
(x2)
D
This time I'm not just thinking out loud.
A
This time I'm not just thinking out loud.
G
This time I'm not just thinking out loud.
Bm A D
This time I'm not just thinking out loud.
