Poison Oak(Chords)

Poison oak, some boyhood bravery 
                 A			Dsus2 
When the telephone was a tin can on a string  
        F#m		                    E 
And I fell asleep with you still talking to me 
 	             A	            Dsus2 
You said you weren't afraid to die

    A			   Dsus2 
In polaroids you were dressed in women's clothes 
                 A				   Dsus2 
Were you made ashamed, why'd you lock them in the drawer?  
        F#m		                E 
Well I don't think that I ever loved you more 
                          A  
Than when you turned away 
                  Dsus2  
When you slammed the door 
                   A		  Dsus2 
When you stole a car drove and towards Mexico  
               A		            Dsus2 
And you wrote bad checks just to fill your arm 
          F#m		      E 
I was young enough, I still believed in war

       E		                  F#m 
But let the poets cry themselves to sleep 
                    E		          F#m 
And all their tearful words would turn back into steam 

         
                      A	     Dsus2 
But me, I'm a single cell on a serpent's tongue 
	A	            Dsus2 
And there's a muddy field where a garden was 
                            A 
And I'm glad you got away  
                   Dsus2 
But I'm still stuck out here 
	    F#m	                   E		 
My clothes are soaking wet from your brother's tears

          E		               F#m 
And I never thought this life was possible 
                E			    F#m  
You're the yellow bird that I've been waiting for 


                  A		   Dsus 2 
The end of paralysis I was a statuette  
              A		     Dsus2 
Now I'm drunk as hell on a piano bench 
                    A	         Dsus2 
And when I press the keys it all gets reversed 
	 F#m                            E 
The sound of loneliness makes me happier
