So the wind the blows across your room,
E
Carry cheap perfume onto your dresser,
A E
It rained for jewelery and for credit cards,
(continue with E)
Two tickets to a film I don't remember,
A E
One day you'll kiss your rabbit's nose, pick up the phone,
A
To find I've been turned over,
E
You grab that piece of gold,
A
Only to find that the smell has taken over,

And all the things you had,
A
They aren't the same
B
As what you hold

A
I tend to whisper

Now highways turn the tidal waves,
A
An' they're askin' me to export all of your insecurities,

It's gonna' set the sails,

Sometimes, when sailors are sailin', they,
E
Think twice, about where they're anchorin'

Of my time on land,
A
I'll drink less,

Cause Lord knows I could use a,

Warm kiss, Instead of the call goodbye

Hey, Yeah I'm doin' allright
