[Verse 1]
[D]Left the workplace in [G]a hurry
[F#m]You'd [D]received a call shortly b[G]efore
[F#m]lunch and you seemed [D]nervous [G]after
You [F#m]left food in the break [D]room refrigerator
[G]which is very [F#m]out of [D]character
You proceeded [G]to speed [F#m]down[D]
[G]787 which is not at all out of char[F#m]acter
[D]But when you arrive hom[G]e you de
[F#m]cided to keep the [D]car [G]rolling
You parked in [F#m]the supermarket [D]parking lot a few
blocks [G]away an[F#m]d listened to public [D]radio
[G]The station was [F#m]do ing a fun[D]- drive
and [G]it was annoying
[F#m]There was snow [D]on the ground
but it was [G]about a week [F#m]old
[D]And in upstate New York,
[G]that makes the [F#m]snow t[D]he same colour as t[G]he shitty,, winter sky[F#m]
[D]Things were really bleak
[G][F#m][Bm]
The heat in your car makes your [G]lips dry

[Verse 2]
so you go into a supermarket
It's a [D]low end grocery store and
the shelves are poorly [F#m]stocked
All the packaged food [Bm]was unhealthy
and all the fruit looks [G]bad
You walk around for almost 10 minutes looking for an avocado [D]before
you realise this market doesn't [F#m]carry [Bm]avocados
You settle [D]for a packet of corn
[Bm]chips and a can of chili
[G]Then you realise you
needed a can opener
It's ok, you [D]needed one
for the house anyway
In the [F#m]checkout line you [F#]listen to a couple talk about their
[F#m]child like [Bm]he's a termite infestation
They seem [G]to wanna go home
even less than [D]you do

[Verse 3]
You left your car in the lot [F#m]and
walk to the park
It's mostly [D]homeless people [Bm]but one mother is trying to get
her child [D]to enjoy the [G]terrible snow
You feel embarrassed [D]opening the can of chili but then realise
the company you're in and decide it doesn't matter
After you [Bm]dump your chili into the bag of corn [G]chips
you realise you don't have a fork
For a desperate [D]mo ment,
you consider using a stick but ultimately decide to go without utensils
[Bm]By the time you're done you
should be [G]embarrassed
Your face and your coat
are stained [D]with chili
The phone starts to ring but your fingers
are so messy you hes[Bm]itate to pick [D]it up
[G]When you see[Bm] who called,
you're glad [G]you missed it
The mother and her miserable,
cold child [D]seem to be judging [Bm]you
You spend the rest of the night [D]walking around

[Verse 4]
[G]
You realise your phone's dead when you attempt to [Bm]call a friend for a place [G]to stay,
so you return to your car
The supermarket's still open but it's just
you and the [Bm]em ployees n[G]ow
You buy some wet wipes
For a time [D]you debate sleep
[G]ing in your car
It's now too late [D]to call anyone
[G]So you[D] go home
It takes a long [G]time for you to
[D]open the door
And when you do
