(Am)
(G) The first time (D) that I (G) met her I was (C) throwing up in the (G) ladies’ room (Am) stall
(Dm) She asked me if I (G) needed anything, I said, (C) I (G) think I spilled (Am) my drink”
And that’s how (G) it started
Or so I’d like to (Am7) believe
She (Dm) took me to her (G) mother’s house
Outside of (C) town where the (G) stars hang down (Am7)
She (Dm) said she’d never seen (G) someone so (C) lost
I said I’d (G) never felt so (Am7) found
And then I (G) kissed her on the cheek
And so she (D7) kissed me on the mouth
Oh, oh, oh (Am7)
(D) Spring was popping daisies (G) up ’round (C) rusted trucks and (G) busted lawn chairs (Am7)
(D) We moved into a stu (G) dio in Council (C) Bluffs to save (G) a couple bucks (Am7)
Where the (G) mice came out at night
Neighbors were screaming all the time (Am7)
We’d (D) make love in the after (G) noons to Chel (G) sea Girls and (G) Bachelor Number 2 (Am7)
I played (Dm) for her some (G) songs I wrote
She’d (C) joke and say I’m (G) shootin’ through the roof (Am7)
I’d say, “They’re (G) all for you, dear
I’ll write the (Am) album of the year”
And I (Dm7) know she loved me then (Dm)
I swear (G) to God she did
It’s the (C) way she’d bite my (G) lower lip and
(A) Push her (Am7) hips against my hips and
(Dm7) Dig her nails so (G) deep into my (Am) skin
The first time that I met her I was convinced I had finally found the (A5) one
(D5) She was convinced I was (G5) under the (G) influence of (Cm) all those drunken (B) romantics (Am)
I was reading (G) Fante at the time, I had Bukowski on my mind (Am7)
She (Dm) got a job at (G) Jacob’s, serving (C) cocktails to the (G) local drunks (Am7)
(Dm) Against her will, I (G) fit the bill, I (C) perched down at the (G) end of the (Am7) bar
She said, “(G) Space is not just a place for stars
I gave you an (Am7) inch, you want a house with a yard”
And I (Dm7) know she loved me once, but (G) those days are done
(C) She used to call me (G) every day from a (Am) payphone on her break for lunch
(Dm) Just to say she (G) can’t wait to come (C) home
Oh, to come (Am) home
Oh, to come (C) home
To come (Am) home
The (Dm) last time that I saw her, (G) she was (C) picking through which (G) records were hers (Am)
(Dm) Clothes were packed in (G) boxes, with some (C) pots and pans, and (G) books, and a (Am7) toaster
Just then a (G) mouse scurried across the floor
We started (C) laughing ’til it didn’t hurt (G)
Started (Am) laughing ’til it didn’t hurt (F)
Started (C) laughing ’til it didn’t hurt (G)
Started (Am) laughing ’til it didn’t hurt (F), alright
