Intro: Riff
For the verse I play the chord Em then walk up to the G through the D/F# then down from
G through D/F# to the Em
There's a [Em]note underneath [D/F#]the fron[G]t door
that [D/F#Em]I wrote twenty years a[G]go[D/F#]
Yellow p[Em]aper and a fad[D/F#]ed pi[G]cture
Am (Riff)
And a secret in an envelope
There's no [Em]reasons No [D/F#]excuses[G]
There's [D/F#]no se[Em]condhand ali[G]bis[D/F#]
Just some [Em]black ink on so[D/F#]me bl[G]ue lines
Am (Riff)
and a shadow you won't recognize
