[Am]

[D] [E] [D] [A]
[D]
[E] [D] [E] [D] [A]
[D] [E]
on [D] her [E] rooftop and didn't [D] think about that at all
she stayed up [A] for hours [D] just watching [E] all the drunk folks [D] find the [E] taxis
cause all in [Dm] all it was [A] a good life
[D] so [A] going mad [D] a sunny Sunday watching John [E] McLaughlin
and having [D] sex again [A] in the end
I stopped by cause Ellen had my copy of Nebraska
they never even put on clothes
hung for a while
but every time I tried to ask them something
they started making out all again
I thought it was real
I could tell [D] [Am] well I
[E] I
[D]
[Am]
[A] [F#] Ellen and Ben
they may as well have run off to [D] [E] Havana
simply disappeared for a year
they show up at shows
but less and less than saying hi to no one
and why they even came wasn't clear
they got a new place
[D] But [E] neither of the names were in the phone book
So no one [D] really knew where [E] they were
I thought it was cheap
[D] But I couldn't show you [Am] why
[A] [D]
[Am] Why
I
[A]
[B]
was [C#] seven
I had a [G] book of [Bm]
modern flight of [F#] planes
Without the details
[B]
That animal [F#m] of bridesmanship
With white dress
[B] And children of men
The old [F] Shazam girls
On [C] the boardwalk
[A] Singing oh oh oh
[Em] [A] Yeah yeah
[D] L and [F#] M
[D] I heard they [E] broke up loudly [D] at a wedding
[E] And never saw each [F#] other
It seems [E] kinda weird
[D] Who made [E] each other feel like they could die
But they couldn't [Em] stay the slightest [A] friends
I'm doing fine
I'm staying busy hanging with my nephew
And trying to keep my eyes on the prize
You know how it goes
And so do I
So call me when you can
Now you know I'll love myself
[E]
[B] Oh [A]
yeah
Oh
[B] [A]
