Intro: E-B-C#m-B- x2


Verse 1:
E        B
  me and martha plimpton
C#m      B
   in an elevator
G#m           A
   her golden labrador
E           B
  kissed my index finger
E            B
  two in the morning
C#m       B
   summer saturated
G#m         A
   i'd been drinking
   E          B
and it'd been raining


Chorus 1:
C#m                B
   and it felt so strange
cuz i didn't know what
   C#m
to say and when she
 E       B       A  C#m B
smiled i turned away


Verse 2:
E               B
  but that's so like me
C#m           B
   timid self conscious
         G#m
crippling   she seemed
   A
so friendly and 
E
  i must have seemed
B
seem uninteresting
E             B
  soaked from walking
   C#m
and   smelled like
B              G#m
boozed and cigarettes
              A
i stood there listening
E               B
  to hear light breathing


Chorus 2:
C#m                B
   and i wanted to say
that i really loved
    C#m
her films and i wanted
            E
to make her laugh and
 B           A         C#m B
smile but i stood still


Interlude:
E/G#-A-E-- x3
E/G#-A-E-B-


Bridge:
E/G#             A
    i managed to mutter
E    E/G#         A
hello    her eyes shining
       E        B
in the fancy elevator
      E/G#
lights    i stood
A               E
awkwardly hands fluttering
E/G#          A
    the doors parted and
    E
she said goodnight to me


Chorus 3:
C#m
   and her voice
           B
was like a song 
that wouldn't
         C#m
leave my head
              E
and i thought martha
    B          A    B
i'm running on empty
C#m
   and i couldn't help
    B
but think i'd missed
                  C#m
another chance to live
but isn't that the
E      B      A B
way it always is
E      B      A B
way it always is
   E B A
whoa
   E B A E B A C#m B E B A C#m B
whoa

E B A C#m B E B A B E(hold)
