Key: F
Introduction:
F
The last summer that I saw you
At the BP with no cash
C
You were burnt out like an aspirin
And I was melting on your dash
Bb
And this was years ago when Richmond
Was way out on the astral plane
Am
But it was fine 'cause I could see there was a light up in the tunnel
It's okay, you know I remember how you used to say
F
When you finally go
You're gonna find out who you'll miss the most
C
It won't be any of the usual suspects, but whatever, man
Soon enough you're gonna find out who I mean
Bb
When you go, you get to finally meet the one who tortured you
The one who hurt you worse than anyone, even me
Am
And I'm just sorry that I won't be
There to tell you that I told you so
F
You're the old sneakers on the floor, the coat by the front door
The ashtray by the milk crate in the yard
C
And you're the dead fern in the hall, all the blanks in my recall
The old Toyota van I sold for parts
Bb
You were the house that they tore down
It's now a vacant block of land
Am
And you're the dog ear in the book
I didn't even know you looked at
F
Then I got something in the post, and there it is, your legal ghost
And just goes to show, you know
C
I don't wanna go out no more, just the thought makes me recoil
It's like that feeling when unwanted guests
Bb
They're either too smart or too dumb
Or they're too weak or they're too strong
Am
You were the best time I remember, and I do 'cause life is dull
It's like you're half the fucking neurons in my skull
F
When you finally go, you're gonna find the only thing you needed
Did exactly as it should and got you through
C
You did not need nobody's help, just the idea of being helped
Though at the time it wouldn't have felt like that was true
Bb
And when you go you'll get to finally meet
The one who tortured you
Am
But you'll be fine
'Cause you could always see a light up in the tunnel
Bb
But you'll be fine
'Cause you could always see a light up in the tunnel
Am
I got a feeling it'll happen soon to me
Bb
But you'll be fine
'Cause you could always see a light up in the tunnel
Am
I got a feeling it'll happen soon to me
Bb
But you'll be fine
'Cause you could always see a light up in the tunnel
Am
I got a feeling it'll happen soon
