        | D2 | G6 D2 | G6 D2 | Em A7 |


          D2                     G6            D2
There's a crow flyin' down from over the hill.
G6            D2       Em       A7
Cracked paint on my window sill.
      D2                   G6    D2
Each morning broke provides a girl.
G6        D2         Em      A7
Forget my evening feeling world.
     F#5            G5               A5
When day gets dark      it seeps into my skin.
    F#5            G5               A5
And I rcall the spark that kept me sane.


D2                        G6       D2
   Can't talk to you it's plain,
G6          D2         Em       A7
Won't start to name my pain,
D2               G6        D2
Or forget I don't  know why
    G6         D2        Em      A7
You tugged the corner of   my eye.
F#5       G5                A5
Movin' up    the neck of my    guitar.
F#5                  G5                  A5
I turn the lamp off,     I see where you are.


A2           D2               D2/B              A7
        Your one light slowly fading in my mind.
A7sus4      D2                  Cadd9
        The furthest from my head.
G6/B     G5
Half the time.


D2               D2/B                      A7
Simple point too bright to leave the sky.
D2                 Cadd9  G6/B  G5   Dm    G        F    C
     You're dissolving    in my eye, in my eye.
Dm        G       F     C
My closed eye.
Dm              G       A5      F5      G5
Half the time.


E                A2      E        A2          E  F#m     B7
Mountain Dew and Malboro,   While I stew over er all I owe.
   E                    A2          E
My eyes set wet against    the breeze,
A2            E    F#m         B7
Guide the sun into   the trees.
      G#5                   A5              B5
Where squirrels are holding acorns in their teeth.
  G#5            A5             B5              Badd11
I can't see into why I made you leave.


     E                C#m  C#m9      Badd11
Your one light slowly fad--ing in my mind.
    E                      D2
The furthest from my head.
C#m        A2
Half the time.
  E              C#m C#m9       Badd11
A simple point revolving in my sky.
E                D2   C#m   A2
    You're dissolving in my eye.

You don't know how you move me, deconstruct me, and consume me, I'm all
used up, I'm out of luck, I am starstruck, By something in your eyes.
That is keeping my hope alive.   - Matthew Sweet
