C Em Am F

[Verse]
            C *                     Em *
I've got a copy, of catcher in the rye
           Am *                      F *
in my top pocket, I think you know why.
          C *                            Em *
Order me something, from the dusty top shelf
                 Am                   F
I can't keep my secrets in, nor my hand to myself.

[Chorus]
       C F Em *
So we put on those old records,
       C F Am *
drank spirits with my friends.
         C                 Em
But not long ago, I could never know,
            F               C Em       Am
like you'd turn a page, someone could go.

[Verse]
             C *                     Em *
Our Lady of Sorrows, please take my hand.
            Am *                           F
That was a hard year, even if I'd been an older man.
                 C *                            Em *
She said you're 23 now, you know Keats went at 25.
                 Am                                   F
You've only got ten more years, 'till Christ was crucified.

[Chorus]
       C F Em *
So we put on those old records,
       C F Am *
drank spirits with my friends.
         C                 Em
But not long ago, I could never know,
            F               Em
like you'd turn a page, someone could go.
        Am                G
In our concrete walls, a sweet perfume,
          F                   C G      Am
that the lilies made as they fill the room.

[Break]
C Em F
C Em C *

[Chorus]
         C                 G
But not long ago, I could never know,
            F               Em
like you'd turn a page, someone could go.
        Am                G
In our concrete walls, a sweet perfume,
          F                   C G      Am
that the lilies made as they fill the room.
F               C G                Am
       as they fill the room.
