D(*)
I close up the house now on this sad affair
D(*)
Very last step of a thousand steps there
G
And we'll never reach the, ever reach the sky now
D(*)
I don't care
He called me a liar when I told him I loved him
And I thought it was plain as the sky above him
He called me a liar, yeah, he called me a liar
D G A D
Now here's these boxes piled up on the lawn
D G A D
And I say to myself, 'In a little while, I'll be gone
D G A Bm
And he will just turn back into the house and go on
Bm A G
And my car will drive away and turn into a song, yeah'
He got the lampshade, I got the cat
Strange sensation, coming down to that
Strange sensation, coming down to that
He's got the four walls and I've got the sky of gray
He said he'd like to get out of harm's way, get out
And now here's these boxes piled up on the lawn
And I say to myself, 'In a little while, I'll be gone
And he will just turn back into the house and go on
And my car will drive away and turn into a song, oh, yeah'
D(*) D(*) G D
Wants me to understand, yes, he wants me to say
How I understand we're better off this way
Wants me to pack my things and he wants me go
But he sure does care about me, oh, yes, he wants me to know
And I got these boxes piled up on the lawn
And I say to myself, 'In a little while, I'll be gone
And he will just turn back into the house and go on
And my car will drive away and turn into a song, yeah
