Tom: Am
E Am E Am
Dear little devil, how's tricks these days?
E Am E Am
I didn't write, didn't know what to say
C G C E
Do you still sleep with the sun in your face?
E Am E Am
Sheets wet from fever dreams force you awake
[Verse 2]
E Am E Am
Dear little colonel, one foot in the grave
E Am E Am
Fighting the war with an unsteady aim
C G C E
Is that the goal, to create your crusade
E Am E Am
With nothing for no one, so no one is saved
Am
Or safe?
[Chorus]
F G
You never really say you will
Am
But never say you won't
F G
The world must be a funny place
Am C
When you can't let go
F G C Am
You can't ask for forgiveness if you think you must atone
E Am
For what you know
[Verse 3]
E Am E Am
Dear little valentine, how is your nose?
E Am E Am
Keeping it clean? I sure doubt, but I hope
C G C E
How is your head, mister? How are your toes?
E Am E Am
Do you still miss me when nights get too cold?
[Chorus]
F G
You never really say you do
Am
But never say you don't
F G
The world must be an awful place
Am C
When you can't let go
F G C Am
You can't see what you're made of if you think you're made of stone
E Am
And all alone
F G
And every time you say you will
Am
You prove to me you won't
F G
Your world was such a lovely place
Am C
Still, I can't let go
F G Am C
I can't see what you're made of when you think you must atone
E Am
For what you know
E Am
And what you don't
