She took the oldsmobile out past Condor Avenue

And she locked the car and slipped past

Into rhythmic quietude lights bur - ning

Voice dry and hoarse

I threw the screen door like a bastard back and forth

The chimes fell over each other

I fell onto my knees

The sound of the car driving off made me feel diseased
[Chorus]

A sick shouting like you hear at the fairground

Now I'm picking up to put away anything of your's that's still around

I don't know what to do with your clothes or your letters

It'll make a whisper out of you

The fairground's lit

A drunk man sits by the gate she's driving through

Got his hat tipped bot - tle back in between his teeth

Looks like he's buried in the sand at the beach

I can't think about you driving off to leave barely awake
Am Asus4 Am Bm F# Am / B C
To take a lit - tle nap while the road is straight

I wish that car had never been discovered

That's the one thing that he could never do

Cops were running around the scene

Looking for some kind of clue

They never get up - tight when a moth gets crushed

E F#* G*
Unless a light bulb really loved him very much
/ B Cmaj7 / B C
I'm lying down
D Riff Cmaj7 C
Blowing smoke from my cigarette
Am Asus4 Am Bm F# Am / B C
Little whisper smoke signs that you'll never get
[Chorus]
E G Am
You're in your oldsmobile driving by the moon
E G Am
Headlights burning bright ahead of you
E G Am
And someone's burning out, out on Condor Avenue
E D C / B / C / G / F# / F
Trying to make a whisper out of you
[Chorus]
E G
What a shitty thing to say
Am
Did you really mean it?
E G Am
You never said a word to me about what passed between us
E G
So now I'm leaving you alone
Am
You can do whatever the hell you want to
E D C / B / C / G / F# / F E
na, na, na, na, na, na, na
