Start Jamming...
When she fell, she fell apart.
[N] Cracked her bones on the pavement she once decorated as a child with sidewalk chalk.
When she crashed, her clothes disintegrated.
And blew away with the winds that took all of her fairweather friends.
[A] When she looked around, her skin was spouted with ink.
Forming [N] the words of a thousand voices, echoes she heard even in her sleep.
[F#] Whatever you say, it is not right.
Whatever you do, it is not enough.
Your [B] kindness is fake.
Your [D] pain is manipulative.
When she lay [Em] there on the ground, [D#] she dreamed of time machines [F#m] and revenge.
And a love that was [F#] really something.
[E] Not just the idea of something.
[Am] When she finally rose, she rose [C#] slowly.
Avoiding old haunts and sidestepping shiny pennies.
[G] Wary of phone calls and [E] promises.
Charmers, dandies, and get [B] love quick schemes.
When she stood, [A] she stood with a desolate knowingness.
Waded out into the dark wild ocean up to her neck.
Bathed in her brokenness.
[E]
[G] Said a prayer of gratitude for each chink in [B] the armor she never knew she needed.
[F#] Standing broad-shouldered next to her was a love that was really something.
Not [D#m] just the idea of something.
[E] When she turned to go home, she heard echoes of new words.
[F#] May your heart remain breakable, but never by the same hand [A] twice.
[F#] And even louder, without your past, [E] you could never [Dm] have arrived so wondrously and brutally.
[F#] By design or some violent exquisite [B] happenstance.
[D#] Cheer.
[C] Laughing, this dog's gonna get [C] away.
I had the best of times, the worst of crimes.
[G] I struck a match and blew your mind, but I [Dm] didn't mean it.
And you [F] didn't see it.
[C] The ties were black, the lies were white.
[G] And shades of gray and candlelight.

I needed [F] a reason.
[C] Text marks the spot where we fell [G] apart.
