Skeleton Key(Chords)

	        Verse: 1 
E                            G#  
Half asleep with the sun coming up out east 
                   F#                           B             F#        E 
We're driving down Garfield Ave when you said a strange and significant thing 
                  G#                            F# 
I can remember the words - 'this was a beautiful night 
                        B           F# 
It won't, it won't ever happen this way again' 

Pre-Chorus: 
E                         B 
No, my dear, nothing much grows around here 
             F#                         G#               F# 
We carry our roots with us, a couple of weeds pulled up, misguided 
E                           B                           F# 
Girl, you'll be the heroine of my book, the plot is the course we took 
                  G#         F#          E 
The setting can't be nowhere else in the world 

 
        B 
And the story opens up with you 
                       G#    F# 
Your broken dreams and cheap perfume 
            E 
You're on a city bus, the rain it falls 
                         F#      G# 
Your make up bleeds, the wind it howls 
      B 
And I stumble on from Uptown bars 
                        G#     F# 
I guess that's all I've got so far 
                 E 
Yeah, but at the end, I don't know how 
                    F#      G# 
You save me and you save yourself 


Verse: 2 
E                                  G# 
It ends so soon, the night and the fading moon 
              F#                           B           F# 
I put my hand inside yours, the city looks strange and significant 
  E                                        F# 
I know these streets, the place where I'll live and die 
                 F#                         B            F# 
Resigned to that fact, but I, I'm hoping it happens this way again 

Pre-Chorus 
E                         B 
No, my dear, nothing much grows around here 
             F#                         G#               F# 
We carry our roots with us, a couple of weeds pulled up, misguided 
E                           B                           F# 
Girl, you'll be the heroine of my book, the plot is the course we took 
                  G#         F#          E 
The setting can't be nowhere else in the world 


        B 
And the story opens up with you 
                       G#    F# 
Your broken dreams and cheap perfume 
            E 
You're on a city bus, the rain it falls 
                         F#      G# 
Your make up bleeds, the wind it howls 
      B 
And I stumble on from Uptown bars 
                        G#     F# 
I guess that's all I've got so far 
                 E 
Yeah, but at the end, I don't know how 
                F#       G# 
You save me and then you save yourself

You save me and then you save yourself 


Outro 
B 
Fall asleep to the radio 
G# 
Try to keep what I got from you 
F#                         E 
Hard to do in these dreary days
