Persimmon

[Primera Parte]

D#                        F
   Said you don't like persimmon
                      A#
But the shade is quite nice
A#7                  Gm
    Use your colorful language
                D#
As a shy way to slight
                   F
So I dress in this orange
                    A#
But it doesn't look right
A#7                       Gm
    Now the lake's frozen over

[Pre-Estribillo]

                      D#7M
I've got more room to glide
    F       A#
And I slept in til eleven
Gm7                    D#7M
    With the dog on my side
    F       A#  A#7       
And my foot dangling off the 
   Gm7
mattress

[Estribillo]

          D#7M
I woke up numb
   F
In more ways than one
     A#             A#7
It's more than a sensation
 Gm7                  D#    F
I see it in all faces now, now

D#7M                      F
  It's enough, it's substantial
                      A#
I've survived on much less
A#7                     Gm7
    What's a flame to a candle
                      D#7M
When you're melting regardlеss?
                           F
So fuck that bitch in your story
                    A#
And fuck me after I guess
A#7                       Gm7
    I took hеr arm in the lobby

[Pre-Estribillo]

                 D#7M
And I made a new friend
F           A#        A#7
Then talked shit til eleven
Gm7                    D#7M
    It's a means to an end
  F
A road to a bend
  A#       A#7        Gm7
A woefully natural progression

[Estribillo]

          D#7M
I woke up numb
   F
In more ways than one
     A#             A#7
It's more than a sensation
 Gm7                  D#    F
I see it in all faces now, now

[Puente]

         D#       F
Is it so wrong of me?
       A#          A#7  Gm
Legend has it, I'm sentimental
         D#       F
I hold a strong belief in
A#           A#7   Gm
All things inconsequential
            D#       F
Just like a highway fire
           A#       A#7       Gm
I'm taking it as a sign, as a sign
                D#    F
I gotta turn around, around

[Final]

D#                        F
   Said you don't like persimmon
                      A#
They take too long to grow
A#7                       Gm7
    If you practice your patience
                     Eb
Maybe one day you'll know
                    F
Why I dress in this orange
                  A#
Why I'm taking it slow
A#         A#7          Gm7
   Now the lakes frozen over
