Song Of Our So-called Friend by Okkervil River Okkervil River - Song of Our So-Called Friend Tabbed by Alex Kandabarow alex[dot]kandabarow[at]gmail[dot]com Okkervil River: htt://www.jound.com/okkervil/ Standard Tuning A Bm Remember when our so-called friend would not call out to you F#m D Dsus2 while tumbling loosely out a hole punched through your home? A Bm It’s pretty clear, though you could hear, you truly finally knew, F#m D Dsus2 in time, he’d tell his tale the way he’d like it told. F#m Bm Now he isn’t on the phone, Bm D and his story might as well be so. A Bm Well, loving is as loving does, and I’d say we should know, F#m D Dsus2 because we both have loved, have lost, and are alone. A Bm Your face’s falling tears, to me they’re lovely and they’re dear, F#m D Dsus2 though you don’t love me and it’s clear that I will never see you in my arms. F#m Bm There’s no room in your heart Bm D Dsus2 for even this finely-sharpened dart; A F#m Bm D A although I had started to think there might be hope, it isn’t so. Bridge: A Bm F#m D Dsus2 F#m Bm D A So wake up, make up some new song again around the same tune. A Bm The water cools, the leaves they fall, the sun it bends, the summer ends; D A our so-called friend doesn’t need you. A Bm So proceed out the door and down the street. December’s lying near, F#m D Dsus2 but in the oven’s heat this house is now a home. A Bm Sixty days of trips and stays you took to tell me, dear, F#m D Dsus2 that you cannot love me because you secretly still love a stone. F#m Bm Although I put my lips to your face, Bm D trying to push his kiss out of its place, A F#m Bm D A although my heart started to race, now it has slowed, I’ll let it go. End: A Bm F#m D (X2) A www.TAB6.com
