Standard tuning
Capo on 3
In the chorus there is a walk-down from G to Em (3-2-0 on the 6th string).
[Intro] (x2)
G Em Dsus4/A C
[Verse]
G Em Dsus4/A C
I went with you up to the place you grew up in, we spent a week in the cold
G Em Dsus4/A C
Just long enough to "Walden" it with you, any longer, it would have got old
G Em Dsus4/A C
Singing "Ace of Spades" when Lemmy died but nothing's changed - L.A.'s all right
G Em Dsus4/A C
I'm sleeping in my bed again and getting in my head and then walk around the reservoir
[Chorus]
G Em Dsus4/A C
You-uuu-uuu-uuuu, you must have been looking for me
G Em Am C
Sending smo-oo-oo-ooke signals, pelicans circling
Em D C
Burning trash out on the beach
[Solo]
G Em Dsus4/A C
[Verse]
G Em Dsus4/A C
One of your eyes is always half-shut, something happened when you were a kid
G Em Dsus4/A C
I didn't know you then and I'll never understand why it feels like I did
G Em Dsus4/A C
"How Soon Is Now" in an '80s sedan, you slept inside of it because your dad
G Em Dsus4/A C
Lived in a campground in the back of a van, you said that song will creep you out until you're dead
[Chorus]
G Em Dsus4/A C
You-uuu-uuu-uuuu, you must have been looking for me
G Em Am C
Sending smo-oo-oo-ooke signals, pelicans circling
Em D C
Burning trash out on the beach
[Solo]
G Em Dsus4/A C
[Verse]
G Em Dsus4/A C
I wanna live at the Holiday Inn where somebody else makes the bed
G Em Dsus4/A C
We'll watch TV while the lights on the street put all the stars to death
G Em Dsus4/A C
It's been on my mind since Bowie died just checking out to hide from life
G Em Dsus4/A C
And all of our problems I'm gonna solve 'em with you riding shot-gun speeding, 'cause fuck the cops
[Chorus]
G Em Dsus4/A C
You-uuu-uuu-uuuu, you must have been looking for me
G Em Am C
Sending smo-oo-oo-ooke signals, pelicans circling
Em D C
Burning trash out on the beach
[Solo]
G Em Dsus4/A C
[Verse]
G Em Dsus4/A C
I buried a hatchet, it's coming up lavender, the future's unwritten, the past is a corridor
G Em Dsus4/A C
I'm at the exit looking back through the hall, you are anonymous, I am a concrete wall
[Outro] (x4)
G Em Dsus4/A C
