Hello Exile(Keyboard chords)

	        Intro: A    C#m    F#m    D Dm   (x2) 


Verse 1:
    A 
Her language was a perfect phrase 
    C#m 
Her playful prose followed me for days 
F#m 
Down the alleyways of my desire 
         D             Dm 
To their final resting place 


Verse 2:
     A 
In a vacation town where I lived year round 
    C#m 
She migrated here with the summer crowds 
       F#m 
And we fell in love under impossible smiles 
         D                     Dm 
Life was perfect if just for a little while 


Pre-Chorus
 
         Bm 
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh 
      D 
Hello exile 



      A                  E 
And a thousand years may come and go 
       F#m          D 
We may never meet another soul 
A                         F#m             E 
Here on our own island of Elba in the Poconos 
         Bm       D (hold) 
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh 


Hello exile 

A    C#m    F#m    D  Dm 

Verse 3:
       A 
And we bathed in the sun 

Cut our jeans into shorts 
   C#m 
Outstared every star in the sky 
          F#m 
Under the cover of nowhere the present was a present 
          D                      Dm 
It looked beautiful on you every night 


Verse 4:
       A 
But we knew it would end yeah we knew it all along 
         C#m 
It was a future never reconciled 
           F#m                                             Dm 
It?'s as if letting your shackled heart feel loved was more difficult than total denial 


Pre-Chorus 
         Bm 
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh 
      D 
Hello exile 



      A                  E 
And a thousand years may come and go 
      F#m          D 
I may never meet another soul 
A                         F#m             E 
Here on my own island of Elba in the Poconos 
         Bm       D (hold) 
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh 


Hello exile 

A    C#m    F#m    D  Dm x2 


Verse 5:
        A 
Now I imagined her memory would fade in the void 
      C#m 
She'??d only reappear every now and again 
    F#m 
I'd smile at the thought of us 

Go back to my day 
             D              Dm 
But that was purely wishful thinking 

Pre-Chorus
         Bm 
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh 
      D 
Hello exile 


      A                  E 
And a thousand years may come and go 
      F#m          D 
I may never meet another soul 
A                         F#m             E 
Here on my own island of Elba in the Poconos 

         F#m               A 
And just play the last set of my mind ? 
    E                           D 
Our passions were real from the summertime 
  F#m                   A                         E 
Swimming in the Delaware wringing out your long blonde hair 

         Bm 
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh 
      D 
Hello exile 
         A     A/G#  E  F#m 
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh 
      Dm 
Hello exile
