Verse 1

F           Am             F
In the stick-count for the song of knowing you're gone
F        Am              F
Glancing up at where you lived when you lived here
F         Am        F
I see you suddenly alive and nearly smiling
F        Am                 F
Stop and hold my breath and watch the way you used to be


Chorus

G                  F               Am         F         F
The full moon makes our faces shine like over-ironed polyester
G              F                 
Then disappears behind the clouds
Am            F               F            F
And leaves me under empty rows of night windows


Verse 2

F         Am                 F
We could walk to where these streets get pulled together
F          Am               F
A blinking line with gravel shoulders squared towards an end
F         Am      F
Where the radio resounds from doppling traffic
F         Am                F
Where the power lines steal esses from the hourly news


Chorus

G           F              Am             F               F
De-pluralize our casualties and drown the generals out in static
G                  F
We'd turn and watch our city sprawl
Am          F                  F            F
And send us signals in the glow of night windows


Outro

F          G  Em      F 
But you're not coming home again
F     G    Em    F
And I won't ever get to say
   F                 G               Em                    F
"Remember how... I'm sorry that... I miss the way... Could we..."


End on  F
