Dear long, dark hair,
Am
I write cause I know you'll forget You could be
Em F C G
Sea green in a wastebasket tomorrow
C Am
No repulsion toward my premature indulgences
Em F G
If you can't recall a word I said
F
Not like those cheekbones
Fm
That crooked nose
Am Am/G# Am/G Am/F#
No, those fellas stick around too long
F G
Perpetuating every pathetic word that I skew into song
C Am
Em F G
C
She was my trophy shelf of slip ups
Am
My untamed hormonal Loch Ness shitshow
Em F C G
On late night rotation for months on end
C
A brick boot swimming lesson
Am
In the deep end of my adolescence
Em F G
Scrawling notes on the backs of my hands
F
But I'll start fresh with you
Fm Am
Extracting the rusted attachments
Am/G# Am/G Am/F#
Keeping the diehard nuts, bolts, and screws
F
We'll go from square one
G
With the wit of an old pro
Am Am/G# Am/G Am/F#
And you can fill in the gaps with whatever you know
F G C
My long, dark hair
