C#m         B            C#m                A
 Left uninspired by the crust of railroad earth
                C#m         B             A
It touched the lead to the pages of your manuscript
C#m         B           C#m           A
I took my thumb off the concrete and saved up all
     C#m
my strength
           B             A
To hammer pillars for a picket fence

It wasn't quite what it seemed,
a lack of pleasantries
My able body isn't what it used to be
I must admit, I was charmed by your advances
Your advantage left me helplessly into you

Chorus:
A                 B
Talking how the group had begun to splinter
A                     B
And I can taste your lipstick on the filter

I tried my best to keep my distance from your dress
But call-response overturns convictions every time
My memory cannot recall a wave of alcohol
We shared a cigarette and shaved the hours off

Chorus:
Talking how the group had begun to splinter
And I can taste your lipstick on the filter
Lushing with the hallway congregation
My best judgment signed its resignation

A             C#m
 I rushed this, we moved too fast
A          E
 Trips into the guest room
A             C#m
 I rushed this, we moved too fast
A           E
 Tripps into the guest room
