Damien Jurado - Working Titles
Some versions suggest this with a capo on 5th. Strum pattern is ˅ ˄˅˄˅.
YoC/Gu could mess up my life in a poem
HavGe me divorced by the time of the chorus
ThAmere's no need to change any sentence
WhF/Cen you always decide where I go next
MaC/Gny nights you would hide from the audience
WheGn they were not in tune with your progress
In Amthe end you're a fool like the journalist
WhF/Co turns what she's seeing into business
YoC/Gu could use to be more like a hero
A dGarker shade of damage distortion
WeAmaring death like a cape or a costume
CuF/Ct your ties and leave town when you want to
KiC/Glling time 'til I pass through the chamber
Or Gthe room you keep my replacement
so Amfed up, still you're starving on paper
YoF/Cu're no him, but he's you, only better
LeC/Gave me an exit to damage
I cGould use a ledge to jump off of
I Amwasn't lying when I said this was over
I F/Chave questions that lead to more questions
RuC/Gnning time that will cut off my fingers
You Gwrote about me on every new record
AnAmd I'll show up in a title of your song
I F/Conly hope somebody requests it
WhC/Gat's it like for Gyou in WashAmingtonF/C  
I'C/Gve only seen phoGtos of WashiAmngtonF/C  
I'C/Gll never knowG  Am  F/C  
C/GLeave me Manhattan, GI want the evergreens
AmWrite me a song I can F/Csing in my sleep
As C/Gsure as the rain that will Gfall where you stand
AmI want you anF/Cd the skyline, these are my demands
WhC/Gat's it like for Gyou in WashAmingtonF/C  
I'C/Gve only seen phoGtos of WashiAmngtonF/C  
I'C/Gll never know

C/G

You could mess up my life in a poem

Have me divorced by the time of the chorus

There's no need to change any sentence

F/C

When you always decide where I go next

C/G

Many nights you would hide from the audience

When they were not in tune with your progress

In the end you're a fool like the journalist

F/C

Who turns what she's seeing into business

C/G

You could use to be more like a hero

A darker shade of damage distortion

Wearing death like a cape or a costume

F/C

Cut your ties and leave town when you want to

C/G

Killing time 'til I pass through the chamber

Or the room you keep my replacement

so fed up, still you're starving on paper

F/C

You're no him, but he's you, only better

C/G

Leave me an exit to damage

I could use a ledge to jump off of

I wasn't lying when I said this was over

F/C

I have questions that lead to more questions

C/G

Running time that will cut off my fingers

You wrote about me on every new record

And I'll show up in a title of your song

F/C

I only hope somebody requests it

C/G G Am F/C

What's it like for you in Washington

C/G G Am F/C

I've only seen photos of Washington

C/G G Am F/C

I'll never know

C/G G

Leave me Manhattan, I want the evergreens

Am F/C

Write me a song I can sing in my sleep

C/G G

As sure as the rain that will fall where you stand

Am F/C

I want you and the skyline, these are my demands

C/G G Am F/C

What's it like for you in Washington

C/G G Am F/C

I've only seen photos of Washington

C/G

I'll never know
