Verse 1 G Em C In the stick-count for the song of knowing you're gone G Em C Glancing up at where you lived when you lived here G Em C I see you suddenly alive and nearly smiling G Em C Stop and hold my breath and watch the way you used to beVerse 2 G Em C We could walk to where these streets get pulled together G Em C A blinking line with gravel shoulders squared towards an end G Em C Where the radio resounds from doppling traffic G Em C Where the power lines steal esses from the hourly news Chorus D C Em G C De-pluralize our casualties and drown the generals out in static D C We'd turn and watch our city sprawl Em G C G And send us signals in the glow of night windows Outro G D Bm C But you're not coming home again G D Bm C And I won't ever get to say G D Bm C "Remember how... I'm sorry that... I miss the way... Could we..." End on GD C Em G C The full moon makes our faces shine like over-ironed polyester D C Then disappears behind the clouds Em G C G And leaves me under empty rows of night windows
