Oh Paul! Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]I wrote you a letter,
you turned to confetti
And as you tore it into something [F]new
[C]All of its [G]secrets became clear to [C]you[G]
The [C]words on the paper
came sputtering along
Things you could never ignore
[F]They honked on [C]their horn
And announced [G]themselves at [C]the door[G]
So [C]no, it's not your fault
But yes, it is your gift
To be able to talk like you [F]do
[C]I'm hoping someday [G]I'll
understand you [C]too[F]
[G]And the [C]world is an oyster,
it's tight and unkind,
but eventually it ends up coming [F]round
And you gotta [C]learn to swim deep
if [G]you wanna hear something profound
[C]And[F] yo[G]u taught[C] me those things
that you didn't even know,
that you didn't even ever
care to ever [F]know
You just [C]knew to do the things you knew
[G]and we still keep falling [C]for you[F]
[G]And your [C]hair is still perfect
and those letters that you wrote
All spoke to everybody in the [F]room
And your [C]words are forever
but you [G]know you're just
passing [C]through[G]
Now you're [C]leaking and rusted,
and you're covered in dust,
And you can't sleep,
but you can't help [F]but dream.
You recall [C]all the nights
when you [G]still knew how to
make them all [C]scream.[F]
[G]opa[C], opa[G], opa[C] opa,
[F]opa[C], o[Em]pa ne[F]ighboring
Oh [C]Paul, Oh [G]Paul, Oh [C]Paul.[F]
Oh [C]Paul, Oh [Em]Paul, Oh [F]Paul.
Oh [C]Paul, Oh [G]Paul, Oh [C]Paul, Oh [F]Paul.
Oh [C]Paul, Oh [Em]Paul, Oh Paul
