Keep It Even Parquet Courts
(Verse)
There's a [D]drawer in my house that I [Dm]try to keep closed but it's [C]open
There's a [G]commitment that I made to [F]be somewhere but it's [C]broken
An [F]oblique mantra [Fm6]in my head, it [C]lies there on the floor [G]like a bed that would
[F]Collapse like a [Dm]trap, if it was [C]spoken
(Chorus)
[Am]You gotta keep it [G]even, even when you're uptight
[Am]Even when you're [A]happy, even when you're reaching for some
[D]Line I've had in mind, it's been re[Dm]pressed over time, so I'm [C]breathing
Se[G]duced by an excuse that could [F]not be made but I'm [C]speaking
(Instrumental)
[Am] [Am] [C] [C]
[G] [F] [C] [C]
[Am] [Am] [G] [G]
[Am] [Am] [A] [A]
(Verse)
There's a [D]phone with a number that I [Dm]try not to call but it's [C]ringing
For [G]someone I've tried to keep [F]to myself but I'm [C]singing
It's [F]logic that's twisted and [Fm6]paraphrased and [C]justified by a [G]distance
That [F]separates a [Dm]bond, bound of per[C]sistence
(Chorus)
[Am]You gotta keep it [G]even, even when you're uptight
[Am]Even when you're [A]happy, even when you're reaching for
That [D]drawer in my house that I [Dm]try to keep closed but its [C]open
