Oh, the last time I saw Paul
Em9 C D7
I was horrible and almost let him in
G B7
But I stopped and caught the wall
Em9 C D7 G
And my mouth got dry so all I did was take him for a spin
G B7
Yeah, we hopped inside my car
Em9 C D7
And I drove in circles ' round the freight train yard
G B7
And he turned the headlights off
Em9 C
Then he pulled the bottle out
D7 G
Then he showed me what was love
C
I' ll be your morning bright, goodnight shadow machine
G
I' ll be your record player baby if you know what I mean
C
I' ll be your real tough cookie with the whiskey breath
G
I' ll be a killer and a thriller and the cause of our death
G B7
In the blossom of the months
Em9 C D7
I was sure that I' d get driven off with thought
G B7
So I swallowed all of it
Em9 C D7 G
As I realized there was no one who could kiss away my shit
C
I' ll be your morning bright, goodnight shadow machine
G
I' ll be your record player baby if you know what I mean
C
I' ll be your real tough cookie with the whiskey breath
G
I' ll be a killer and a thriller and the cause of our death
G B7 Em9 C D7
Paul, I know you said that you' d take me any way I came or went
G B7
But I' ll push you from my brain
Em9
See, you' re gentle baby
C D7 G
I couldn' t stay, I' d only bring you pain
C
I was your starry-eyed lover and the one that you saw
G
I was your hurricane rider and the woman you' d call
C
We were just two moonshiners on the cusp of a breath
G D G
And I' ve been burning for you baby since the minute I left
