Craig Finn - Rescue Blues chords
Start Jamming...
[D]
She's got that shortness of breath again
Worst case scenarios
[Em] What if the good guy got any dice?
[A] I sit next to her, hold her hand and reassure
[G] Reminder it's a TV show
The hero's somehow [D] always in the fight
I know Jamie from the grocery store
Up on Garden Boulevard
[Em] Started out as a cashier
Now [A] she's in the back
She does scheduling and bookkeeping
[G] She finishes her shift
Gets the bus and meets me back here
[Em]
[D] Jamie,
[G] when we're sailing [Em] off
High above the parking lots
[D] Looking off the balcony
Well, that seems pretty pure to [G] me
I guess we all [Em] get by
Get by in different [D] ways
Right now I'll mostly [G] stay
Up here at Jamie's [D] place
I overestimate
Make mistakes [Em] sometimes
Owe money to some other guys
Safest if I stay [D] inside
Jamie's place is [A] clean
Her TV's six [D] feet [G] wide
Two hundred fifty channels
Coming crisp and clear through [D] satellites
Jamie's husband died
Nineteen ninety [Em]-nine
There was an accident
The claim had paid [D] eventually
[A] She brings me cigarettes
Six-pack chips and [D] sandwiches
[G] Newspapers and tattoo magazines
[D] [Em] [D] Jamie,
[G] when we're sailing off
[Em] High above the parking [D] lots
Looking off the balcony
Well, that seems pretty pure to [G] me
I guess we all get [Em] by
Get by in different [D] ways
Right now I'll mostly [G] stay
Up here at Jamie's [D] place
I
[G] haven't mentioned [Em] it
To all my stupid traveling friends
[D] I'd never hear the end of [Bm] it
They wouldn't leave me alone [G] again
They think I'm only doing [Em] this
To have somewhere to hang my [D] head
I admit that I've played into [Bm] it
But now there's so much more to [G] this
Jamie, when we're sailing [Em] off
High above the parking lots
[D] Looking off the balcony
[Bm] Well, that seems pretty pure to [G] me
That seems pretty pure to [Em] me
We all get by in different [D] ways
Right now I'll mostly [G] stay
Up here at Jamie's [D] place
Up here at Jamie's place
