[Intro]
C Em Am F

[Verse]
            C *                    
I've got a copy, of catcher in the 
 Em *
rye
           Am *                    
in my top pocket, I think you know 
  F *
why.
          C *                      
Order me something, from the dusty 
      Em *
top shelf
                 Am                
I can't keep my secrets in, nor my 
   F
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 
like you'd turn a page, someone 
Em       Am
could go.

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

But not long ago, I could never

        Am                G
In our concrete walls, a sweet 
perfume,
          F                   C G
that the lilies made as they fill
      Am
 the room.
F               C G              
       as they fill the room.
