Verse 1:

Am G Fmaj9 Am G Fmaj9 I am a woman haunted by hands even though I'm alone Am G Fmaj9 Cadd9 Traces of palm lay across my skin Am G Fmaj9 An invisible map of where you've been Am G F Am It's dry road to Idaho, a thirsty tongue across the land G F And soil so dry it could swallow an entire man Am G F C/E Took the first road out of town hoping you were just skin deep Am G But I feel you like some sort of phantom limb F Beside me when I sleep
C G Am 'Cause you are here when gone Am C You are here when gone G/B Am You are here when gone Am G Fmaj9 You are here when gone

Verse 2:

Am G F I watch another gray day unfold it's dusty wings Am G F Sometimes I wish I were more like rocks and stones and things Am G F C/E Sometimes I wish my heart were not like flowers at all Am G F That way I would not get butterflies when you call

Verse 3:

Am G Your absence undermines the landscape F C/E Incomplete without your body like a pillar holding up the sky Am G My body thirsty for your touch F There's no use wondering why
C G Am 'Cause you are here when gone Am C You're here when gone G/B Am You are here when gone Am Dm Here here here when gone

Verse 4:

Dm And some birds abandon the nest Am 'Cause the instinct is too strong to fly F Sometimes I feel like abandoning my guitar and my books F And I'm afraid that I know why F I'm afraid that I know why
C G Am 'Cause you are here when gone Am C You're here here here when gone G/B Am You are here when gone Am C Here here here when gone C You are here G/B You are here Am You are here Am G F Here here here when gone
Outro Am G F Oh, your kiss lingers on my lips F Dm It linger
