🎸 Verse 2:

Dbmaj7 Bb5 Ab5 Gb5
Dbmaj7 Bb5 Ab5 Gb5

Dbmaj7
  I hate the way that I talk
             Bb5
when the words won't give off
               Ab5  Gb5
the kind of praise esteemed of  you
Dmaj7
  And what the hell could I say
              Bb5
when you're two stars from grace
              Ab5  Gb5
and the world, it turns for  you?
     Dmaj7
I'm just saying, man, if the Lord worked oh so kindly
Bb5              Ab5  Gb5
He could whip me up a clone of  you
      Dmaj7
But I still wouldn't glance, 'cause the thought of someone further
      Bb5
'Cause I'd have to take a month off work
  Ab5        Gb5
and sit down in the kitchen
  Gb5
and explain all our in-jokes
  Gb5
and teach her all our fictions
  Gb5
and cry with her to Wall-E
  Gb5
and still I'd fuckin' miss ya
  Gb5
and finally it hit me
   Gb5
that I was not the fix-all
Gb5
I was just the villain
N.C.
and every single modicum of energy

I gave to all the little things

compounded my placidity

and drove out all the good things

and made life oh so heavy

and now I can't wake up and talk to you

Oh distant you

Oh gorgeous you

Oh, you
