Pothole Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[F]The fossils of my footsteps
will [C]be unearthed at a far- off date, unknown
[F]Impressed in concrete
from [C]walking home alone
after walking [F]you home
[F]And the mops of greasy hai[C]r
will romanticize my des[F]pair
But they wont [C]know
that I didn't [Am]care
I [G]like the [C]silence,
[Am]I like the empty stree[F]ts
[G]Crawl [C]down 'em on [F]hands and knees
in a [Am]heart[G]beat [C]if I had[F] to
[Am]I owe 'em that at th[G]e very least[F]

[Verse 2]
[F]The map had faded out
but I [C]could have sworn I noted every stride
[F]I guess the rain hit
be[C]fore the ink had dried
[F]And where I thought I'd be
[C]was not what I perceived
[F]Assessing the progress
from be[C]neath your sheets
That's [Am]why I n[G]eed the [C]silence,
[F]I need the empty str[Am]eets
[G]Just as [C]bad as they [F]don't need me
Its a [Am]sick, [G]sad, [C]sham of a [F]marriage
But it's all there [Am]is,
it's [G]all I [F]need[Fm]

[Outro 1]
[F]I can be eve[Am]rythi[C]ng you nee[F]d
if you [C]make me
[F]I can be eve[Am]ry cra[C]ck
in your [F]concrete
if you [C]let me off eas[F]y
I can be [Am]easil[C]y de[F]ceived
if you [C]want that
[F]But you are the emb[Am]er
[C]of my [F]heart,
whether you [C]like that or [F]not
