Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E) Difficulty: Novice Verse 1: Em Someone that I met but I hardly knew Em He said that everyone loves a defective heart Am He'd parted ways with diction, this was late last night Am He see me getting your affection and it proved he was right Am The way I stared off thinking that all was sound Em Anyone that I knew would've called me found Em You can break my legs, you can kick me downstairs Am But there ain't no getting over Joanie Hale-Maier Am Just let me walk away Am Let me walk away
Chorus: B And then the place ignite B It's in my face and I'm Em Behind the bass line Verse 2: Em Someone that I knew but I hardly met Em Told me, it's hopeless I'm a slut for the New York Times Am She made my heart soft, worn an aiguillette on her arm Am She never been to Texas, never heard of King Kong Am And it'd been so long since I'd been suitably high Em So we did an Airborne, settled in for the night Em Tell me sweetness don't somehow reach your heart Am Until you fall flat down and you can't wait to start Am This is the one cold truth we've all of us known Am As I think to myself this could be easy or I could face it alone Chorus: B And then the place ignite B All out of grace and I'm Em Behind the bass line
