Eugene

   E     F#              B       
   Light struck from the lemon 
   F#
tree
A          G#m       F#         
   What if I’d never seen 
     E            B    C#m    B
hysterical light from Eugene?
E        B       F#          
   Lemon yoghurt, remember I pulled 
G#m
at your shirt
F#                            
   I dropped the ashtray on the 
  E
floor
                    B        C#m  
   I just wanted to be near you
  B



[Verse 2]

E          F#            B      
   Emerald Park, wonders never 
     F#
cease
A              G#m          F#  
   The man who taught me to 
                    E            B
swim, he couldn't quite say my 
    C#m   B
first name
E         B         F#           
   Like a Father he led community
 G#m         F#
 water on my head
                      E
   And he called me “Subaru”
                     B        C#m 
   And now I want to be near you
  B

[Verse 3]

B        A#m6  G#m   F#       
   Since I was old enough to 
E         D#m6          F#
speak I've said it with alarm
B       A#m6    G#m    F#      
   Some part of me was lost in 
     E
your sleeve
             D#m6         F#
   Where you hid your cigarettes
                    E
   No I’ll never forget
                     B        C#m 
   I just want to be near you
  B



[Verse 4]

E          F#             B     
   Still I pray to what I cannot
     F#
 see
A         G#m         F#   
   In the sprinkler I mark the 
             E              B     
evidence known from the start
C#m   B

E           B             F#    
   From the bed near your death,
                G#m               
 and all the machines that made a 
F#m
mess
                       E
   Far away the falcon flew
                    B        C#m   B
   Now I want to be near you


[Verse 5]

E         F#           B         
   What’s left is only 
  F#
bittersweet
A          G#m        F#
   For the rest of my life, 
                  E         B     
admitting the best is behind me
  C#m   B

E          B          F#        
   Now I’m drunk and afraid, 
         G#m             F#
wishing the world would go away
                               E
   What’s the point of singing songs
                         B         
   If they’ll never even hear you?
C#m   B
