We were in the backseat
G Am F
Drunk on something stronger than the drinks in the bar

"I rent a place on Cornelia Street"

I say casually in the car

As if the street lights pointed in an arrow head

Windows swung right open, autumn air

Memorize the creaks in the floor

Back when we were card sharks, playing games

Before you even knew I was gone
