E F#* G*
she took the oldsmobile out past condor ave
/B Cmaj7 /B C
and she locked the car and slipped past
D riff C Am Asus4 Am Bm F#
into rhythmic quietude lights bur - ning
Am /B C
voice dry and hoarse
E F#* G*
i threw the screen door like a bastard back and forth
/B Cmaj7 /B C D
the chimes fell over each other
riff C
i fell onto my knees
Am Asus4 Am Bm F# Am /B C
the sound of the car driving off made me feel diseased
E G Am
a sick shouting like you hear at the fairground
E G Am
now i'm picking up to put away anything of your's that's still around
E G Am
i don't know what to do with your clothes or your letters
E D C /B /C /G /F# /F
it'll make a whisper out of you
E F#* G*
she took the oldsmobile out past condor ave
/B Cmaj7
the fairground's lit
/B C D riff C
a drunk man sits by the gate she's driving through
Am Asus4 Am Bm F# Am /B C
got his hat tipped bot - tle back in between his teeth
E F#* G* /B Cmaj7
looks like he's buried in the sand at the beach
/B C D riff C
i can't think about you driving off to leave barely awake
Am Asus4 Am Bm F# Am /B C
to take a lit - tle nap while the road is straight
E G Am
i wish that car had never been discovered
E G Am
they took away the bottle and the hat he was under
E G Am
that's the one thing that he could never do
E D C /B /C /G /F# /F
and it'll make a whisper out of you
E F#* G*
she took the oldsmobile out past condor ave
/B Cmaj7 /B C
cops were running around the scene
D riff C
looking for some kind of clue
Am Asus4 Am Bm F# Am /B C
they never get up - tight when a moth gets crushed
E F#* G*
unless a light bulb really loved him very much
/B Cmaj7 /B C
i'm lying down
D riff C
blowing smoke from my cigarette
Am Asus4 Am Bm F# Am /B C
little whisper smoke signs that you'll never get
E G Am
you're in your oldsmobile driving by the moon
E G Am
headlights burning bright ahead of you
E G Am
and someone's burning out, out on condor ave
E D C /B /C /G /F# /F
trying to make a whisper out of you
E G
what a shitty thing to say
Am
did you really mean it?
E G Am
you never said a word to me about what passed between us
E G
so now i'm leaving you alone
Am
you can do whatever the hell you want to
E D C /B /C /G /F# /F E
na, na, na, na, na, na, na
