White Lights The Handsome Family
[Em] [Bm] [C] [Am] [Em]
W[Em]hen[Em/F#] you w[G]alked with me
away from the strip mall b[C]ar
a[C/B]cross the h[Am]ighway
to that l[D]ittle gravey[G]ard[D]
Where pl[G]astic flowers
bloomed in yellow gr[C]ass
w[C/B]e sat [Am]on a broken b[D]ench
l[C]istening to the cars p[G]ass
And r[G]ight above your head
in the br[C]anches of a tree
[C/B]there were wh[Am]ite lights
swaying sl[D]owly in the br[G]eeze[D]
There were w[Em]hite lights,
wh[Bm]ite lights,
wh[C]ite lights
sw[Am]aying in a t[Em]ree
[Em/F#] I kn[G]ow they were there
to stop k[C]ids kicking over graves[C/B]
or sp[Am]ray-painting tr[D]ee trunks
with their f[C]avorite rock band's n[G]ame
But s[G]itting there with you
almost t[C]ouching your white hand
am[C/B]ong the br[Am]oken bottles
cr[D]ushed and faded c[G]ans[D]
And those w[Em]hite lights,
wh[Bm]ite lights,
wh[C]ite lights
sw[Am]aying in the br[Em]eeze
Ther[Em/F#]e was m[G]ystery
singing from everyth[C]ing[C/B]
the st[Am]rip mall, the h[D]ighway
the b[C]oarded-up skating r[G]ink
They were c[G]alling our names
in the str[C]ip mall parking lot
ou[C/B]r sweet dr[Am]unken friends
finally n[D]oticing we'd g[G]one[D]
But w[G]e just sat there
not s[C]aying anything
al[C/B]most t[Am]ouching hands your h[D]air
flying [C]in the highway br[G]eeze[D]
Like those wh[Em]ite lights,
wh[Bm]ite lights,
wh[C]ite lights
sw[Am]aying in a t[Em]ree[Em/F#]
[G] [C] [Am] [D] [G] [D] [G]
