Capo 4
===
[G] Light [A] struck from the [D] lemon tree [A]
[C] What if [Bm] I'd never [A] seen hysterical [G] light from Eu- [D] gene? [Em] [D]
[G] Lemon [D] yoghurt, [A] remember I [Bm] pulled at your shirt
[A] I dropped the ashtray on the [G] floor
I just wanted to [D] be near [Em] you [D]
[G] Emerald [A] Park, wonders [D] never cease [A]
[C] The man who [Bm] taught me to [A] swim, he couldn't quite [G] say my first [D] name [Em] [D]
[G] Like a [D] Father he [A] led community [Bm] water on my [A] head
And he called me [G] "Subaru"
And now I want to [D] be near [Em] you [D]
[D] Since [C#m] I was [Bm] old e- [A] nough to [G] speak I've [F#m6] said it with a- [A] larm
[D] Some [C#m] part of [Bm] me was [A] lost in your [G] sleeve
Where you [F#m6] hid your ciga- [A] rettes
No I’ll never for- [G] get
I just want to be [D] near you [Em] [D]
[G] Still I [A] pray to what I [D] cannot see [A]
[C] In the [Bm] sprinkler I [A] mark the evidence [G] known from the [D] start [Em] [D]
[G] From the [D] bed near your [A] death, and all the ma- [Bm] chines that made a [Am] mess
Far away the falcon [G] flew
Now I want to be [D] near you [Em] [D]
[G] What’s [A] left is only [D] bittersweet [A]
[C] For the [Bm] rest of my [A] life, admitting the [G] best is be- [D] hind me [Em] [D]
[G] Now I’m [D] drunk and a- [A] fraid, wishing the [Bm] world would go a- [A] way
What’s the point of singing [G] songs
If they’ll never even [D] hear you? [Em] [D]
