We're sitting naked on the porch with your ghost 
                                                A 
And I lost all of that money when they sent your coffin in the post 
     D                    G                 A 
They say that the farm is going to foreclose

And in this junkie eminent domain 
                                        A 
Babe, you can really give that devil new wings 
              D                          G                                 A 
Yeah, you can barter off the last little bit of light you're allowed to keep 
                                                 D                                    G G# G 
Can you feel that barbed wire wrapped around your throat so while you pull your teeth? 
 


[Verso 3]
 
           D                        G 
Oh, we can sit around for hours and lie about what we've become. 
                                          A 
I'll do major damage to my psyche with the strings of this guitar 
               D                      G               
And Ill drink Appalachian Rye cuz it was my heroes drink 
                                        A                                                    
Cant miss no shot that you take in the dark  
                                                G  A 
Cuz you couldn't see the target to begin with, baby.

            D                                     G 
Oh, well, I would have just dug you a hole in the back half of the yard 
                                         A 
Plant them pretty purple flowers that you always stop and smell 
     D                                 G                A 
Pour concrete in a mold and write your eulogy in braille 
 


[Verso 5]
 
          D                                G 
Oh, and a few could come and visit on that day of the year 
                                                   A 
But darling all of my friends are dead so it would just be me and you 
      D                                G 
And I hate to leave you lonely when my clock decides to stop 
                                           A 
And the place where you and I sleep in is a Starbucks parking lot

    D                                G                                            A 
You hate the smell of coffee, what's worse than lying in idle hatred while you rot 
             D                        G                  A 
I guess I'll cover up these sharp tattoos with sinew calligraphy 
     D                 G                           A 
Especially the ones of you cuz they always itch and bleed

(quicker) 
          D                               G 
Well its more than just a picture its a thousand words at least 
                                     A 
And the door is hanging heavy on them hinges as it swings 
D                                   G 
Maybe that's why I always think of you instead of sleep 
                                        A                         G  A 
Well, maybe that's why I always think of you instead of sleep, my love

                                             A 
And I hope you know how hard it'll be turning lights off now you're gone 
      D                 G 
Won't put away your radio, fold your blanket. 
                  A 
Oh my god, I can't stand it
