[E]I'm counting out dollars while I limp to your brownstone.
I can [A]just barely cover what I n[Am]eed to get back home.
And I kn[F#m]ow we're allowed indiscretion in our lives,
but I've been ma[B7]king mine count every night for a while.
I keep d[E]eleting your number and name from my cell phone,
but I c[A]all every day; that's as [Am]far as my act goes.
What you [F#m]have helps me turn down the noise that I make,
but when it s[B7]tops it just pokes me and keeps me awake.
My fr[E]iends always warned about living cliches
but my f[A]riends aren't there when I m[Am]eet you these days.
I count p[F#m]eople and street signs from the back of your car
and then [B7]skip back excited to wherever they are.
riff 1
I take risks in the stall while they talk by the bar.
I won't go back outside 'til my memory starts
erasing itself into something less brutal,
some beautiful bullshit I pretend to belong to.
For as l[E]ong as the truth tucks itself into bed,
and the b[A]eat of my heart and the h[Am]eat of my breath
keep me h[F#m]opeful and distant and proud of myself,
I'll keep r[B7]inging your bell every night around twelve.[E]
