[B] [Bm] [E]
[A] [D]
[Bm] [E]
[A] [F#m]
[Bm] I couldn't find quiet, [E] not one out in the rain
[A] I was just soaking my head, [D] going right on my brain
[Bm] Somebody said [E] you disappeared in a crowd
[A] I didn't understand that, I don't understand [Bm] now
Am I [E] the one you think about
[A] When you're sitting in your facing [D] chair drinking pink lettuce?
[Bm] Am I [E] the one you think about
[A] When you're sitting in your facing [F#m] chair drinking pink lettuce?
And everybody [D] was gone
[F#m] You were staring down the street
[D] Cause you were trying not to crack up
It wasn't like a wreck, [C#m] it was [E] more like a sea
[A] I didn't ask for this space, [D] it just came over me
[Bm] I love a storm, [E] but I don't love lightning
[A] And all the water's coming up [D] so fast it's [Bm] frightening
Am I [E] the one you think about
[A] When you're sitting in your facing [F#m] chair drinking pink lettuce?
[Bm] Am I [E] the one you think about
[A] When you're sitting in your facing [D] chair drinking pink lettuce?
[F#] And everybody [D] was gone
I was [F#] staring down the street
[D] Cause I was trying not to [Bm] crack
I was solid gold, [E] I was in the fire
[A] I was coming back [D] from what seemed like a [Bm] ruin
I couldn't see [E] you coming so far
[A] I just turned around, [D] and there you [Bm] are
I'm so surprised [E] you wanna dance with me now
[A] I was just getting used to living [D] life without you [Bm] around
I'm so surprised [E] you wanna dance with me now
[A] You always said I held you way [D] too high off the ground
[Bm] You didn't see me, [E] I was falling apart
[A] I was a white girl in a crowd [D] of white girls in a [Bm] park
You didn't see me, [E] I was falling apart
[A] I was a television version of a person with a broken heart
[Bm] You didn't see me, [E] I was falling apart
[A] I was a white girl in a crowd [D] of white girls [Bm] in a park
You didn't see me, [E] I was falling apart
[A] I was a television version [D] of a person with a broken heart
[F#] And everybody [D] was gone
You [F#m] were staring [F#] down the street
Cause [D] you were trying not to crack up
[F#] And blowing the drag [D] was still on
[F#m] Now I only think about a [D] lost land
Just when the [A] sun kicks up
[E]
[B] Now I [Bm] only think about a [D] lost land
Just when the sun [A] kicks up
[E] Said [Bm] [D]
[A] it would be [E] painless
[Bm] A needle and a dart
[D]
[A] Said it would be [E] painless
[B] I wasn't lying
[D]
[A] You said it would be [E] painless
A [Bm] needle and a dart
[D]
[A] You said it would be [E] painless
A [B] needle and a [D] dart
Said it [A] would be [E] painless
[Bm] [D] A needle and a [A] dart
[E] [Bm] [D]
