   B                                                   C#             A 
You've got lunch with your sister tomorrow
       E                           B 
So we can't be up late
                     C#                           A 
You don't mind if I sleep in

But then I've gotta pack my things
                               C#             A                   E                     B 
So I stacked a Bukowski novel on a Blacklisted LP
         C#                                 A                           E                       B 
And this time what it looked like was just what it proved to be

Hey Jess, I woke up older

Carrying two years in the bags under my eyes
 E       B             C#                                 G#m           A 
Hey Jess, I watched you wake up and get dressed
 E                                 B                             A                 C#   B 
You left the room receded like my hairline
                                    C#                                   A 
I've been avoiding Rittenhouse like the plague
                       E                                 B 
Because I just can't handle seeing you today
                             C#                     A 
You made this house into a home
                       E                           B 
Now, I'm a stranger on my street
 C#                                 B 
And as I turned to leave
                   E                                             B   C#   A 
I caught myself in the mirror to see
                   E                     B     A 
I aged a year this week
 C#               A                           E

Hey, thanks again for everything you did
 E       B             C#                                 G#m           A 
Hey Jess, I watched you wake up and get dressed
 E                                 B                             A                 C#   B 
You left the room receded like my hairline
             C#               B                         A 
When John introduced Woke Up New in St. Augustine
       C#   B                 A 
I knew I wasn't alone
           C#                 B                     A 
When I woke up here without you
                                           C#                                         A           B 
There was nothing to do but pack up and go home

 E       B             C#                                 G#m           A 
Hey Jess, I watched you wake up and get dressed
