July

(A7 A)

A
from out of the pinstripes into the white lights
Bm
i was the one true friend
Esus4
and you were my saviour perfect behavior
D                 A
money i'd never spend
A
winter's delivering summer's forgiving
Bm
storms in our washed out hearts
Esus4
guessed every second corrected and reckoned
D                      A
on the words: 'not to part'

CHORUS:
Continues after the ad
     D                A                    E7
when i got better i wrote you a letter but i didn't send it anywhere
     D                   A                       E7
it floats on a dashboard looks on a churchyard's children's promises to share
      Bm                 F#m                      E7
the words aren't free so don't you believe them, something had to be declared
      Bsus4   F#m            C#m
and i have to face july with two holes in my heart
      Bm      F#m                 C#m
and i have to face this life with two hearts

A
i could deceive you, or i could receive you
Bm
warmly in my estate
Esus4
smile so politely, correspond nightly,
D                  A
talk about what we ate
A
then in the winter, everything splinters,
Bm
we will forget our names,
Esus4
sleep in our ashes, hide from the lightening
D                    A
flashes and the cold rain

CHORUS
     D                A                    E7

     D                   A                       E7
it floats on a dashboard looks on a churchyard's children's promises to share
      Bm                 F#m                      E7
the words aren't free so don't you believe them, something had to be declared
      Bsus4   F#m            C#m
