[Intro]
C Dm F
C Dm F
[Verse 1]
C Dm F
Back into town for a minute to pick up prescriptions
C G F
The doctor refilled yesterday
C Dm F
To call it affliction’s a careless description
C G F
Of the terrible itch in my brain
C Dm F
The pharmacy opens at six in the morning
C G F
I don’t start my day until two
C Dm F
I’ll be there after sunset, when everyone’s just left
Dm F
And hope I don’t run into you
C Dm F
I do
C Dm F
Oh I do
[Chorus]
C Dm F
And since the minute I got here been aging in dog years
C G F
And watching time speed to a halt
C Dm F
God, you look like a stranger, I knew you in summer
Dm F
Guess that’s just the winter’s fault
[Verse 2]
C Dm F
Haven’t seen you around since your father skipped town
C G F
Had to hear it from one of your friends
C Dm F
Think the last time I saw him, he kissed both our foreheads
Am G D7
And I fell asleep in your bed
[Interlude]
Dm C G Am Dm
C F Dm C G Am D7 F
[Verse 3]
C Dm F
Five years I tried to be soundless to keep you around
C G F
But I always had too much to say
C Dm F
Now I feel like a failure for standing in line here
Dm F
And daring to take up your space
