You Or Your Memory Chords by The Mountain Goats

_ _ I checked [E] into a bargain price room on [C#m] La Cienega, _ _ [F#m] gazed out through the curtains [A] of the parking lot.
[E] _ _ _ _
_ _ Walked down to the corner store just [A] before [C#m] nightfall, in my bare [F#m] feet, black tar [A] asphalt, _ _ [E] soft and hot. _
_ _ _ [A] And when I came back, I spread out [E] my supplies _ [A] on the counter by the sink, [B] looked myself right in the eyes.
_ _ [E] St.
Joseph's baby _ aspirin, _ _ _ _
_ [A] _ _ [B] Bartle's James, _ [E] and you, _ _ _ _ _ [A] or your memory.
_ _ [B] _ _ _ _
[E] _ _ _ _ _ I ducked behind the drapes when I saw [A] the moon [C#m] begin to rise, [F#m] _
gathered in my loose ends, [A] switched off the [E] light.
