F Am C G
[verse (1)]
F--how you tapped on a box of Amblue american spirits
C--at anyway cafe aG little under a month
beFfore the ashes and management Amcapital files filled the sCtreets G---
F--how we wove through the cones Amwalking home
to the place on atClantic you shared with your hiGlarious sister
F--kicking off your black flatAms, demolished and Claughing G--
[chorus]
C--i keep what i Fcan of you
G--split-second glimpses and snapshots and Csounds
Fyou in my new order t-shirt
G--holding a cat and a glass of beer
[verse (2)]
F--when you rescued me Amfrom the customs cops in haCwaii
when i shut down the pGlace with my japanese Fnovelty bomb
Am--and your Cdad came aGlong
F--how you had me lay dowAmn for a temperature check
C--with the cool of your hand on the Gback of my neck
F--when i said, "i tAmhink i'm finally goingC crazy for real"
[chorus]
C--i keep what i Fcan of you
G--split-second glimpses and snapshots and sounds
C--you in my new order t-Fshirt
holding a cat Gand a glass of beer
C--i flicker tFhrough
G--i carry them with me like drugs in a pocket
C--you in a kenFtucky aquarium
G--talking to a shark in a corner
[bridge]
Am--you in a batEmh on the phone
Ftelling somebody that Gmaybe they're better off Amleaving
Em--than staying in itF alone G--

[verse (3)]
F--when you cried at the beacAmh and recovered in seconds
C--and said everything's fineG, but i knew that it wasn't
F--then you stayed out of reach Amof me for almost a Cyear G--
F--how you looked like a postAmer of a '70s movie
C--standing outside at the Gbase of your magazine sFkyscraper
Am--waiting for me to Cgo drinking downGtown
