C G Am
I've gone as far as I can go
F G C
The rest you must do alone
F G
With your pants around your knees
C A7
You said "don't leave me please"
F G C
But this is as far as I can go


C G Am
And so I swivel on my heel
F G C
And soon the green becomes the grey
F G
Now that my sister's cleaned my car
C A7
I can depart from where you are
F
I never liked the country anyway

C G F
The birds, they steal things from my sleep
F G C
They sing the promises I couldn't keep


C G Am
Last night I dreamed my alphabet
F G C
Out of my voice, all pretty plastic shapes
F G
Muted microphones
C A7
Turned in my hands to ice cream cones
F
And the silence was all syrupy, all candy, tarts and cake
C G F
The sad curl and shine of baby spit
F G C
And a secret trail that leaves beyond a tick
C G F
Oh, the sad curl and smear of baby spit
F G C
I said "yes" but I did not agree to this



C G Am
Last night I dreamed of paper trails
F G C
Dolls without faces joined infinitely with fingerless armS
F G C A7
Blank as the air was dead and sound is chasing the stillness all around
F
Is choking the vibrations
F C G F
Beady little tales of sewing needles and a ball of string
F G C
Tear them apa- aart and make them sing
C G F
Of sewing needles and ball of string
F G C
My useless heart, a wedding ring


C G Am
Apologies are boring and they're trite
F G C
But if desired, I will see what I can find
F G
As soon as the concrete comes into view
C A7
Pencil to paper we'll move for you
F
Squeeze our time together to lines and lines and lines of fifty words
F
Across the page
F G Am
Big decision all contained in a phrase
C G Am
I know I promised you all along
F G C
Forgive me please, for I cannot
