Bm        G            E
There you have it, the beginning and the end
                           Em
The intern's shovel still covered in shit
Bm           Em              D              E             G
Death, indiscriminate drags off the newborn buck with the broken leg

A                Em                      D           G
In the shadow of conversations had while I was asleep
       A                          Em             D            A
Not to mention the years of conversations you've had without me

[Chorus]

  Em                       D
Afternoon vanilla sun crawls away across the lawn
            A                     Em               A
Through the phone I pull you and drag your voice around
     Em                      D
Afternoon vanilla sun crawls away without a sound
            A                    Em
Through the phone I pull you and drag your voice around

[Post-Chorus]

E                            Em D
You don't know I know what's wrong

      Bm                   E                       G
Notification: 8 executions by drug to beat the expiration
  Bm                             Em7              G
A shelf life of reason, is that what this was, oh Arkansas?
 A                          Em             D             G
Somewhere a judge stretches himself out on fine tropical sand
  A                               Em
I went back to work then took the train home
        D            A
I saw a fire in the distance

[Chorus 2]

     Em                      D
Afternoon vanilla sun crawls away across the lawn
            A                    Em              A
Through the phone I pull you and drag your voice around
    Em                       D
Afternoon vanilla sun crawls away without a sound
            A                    Em
Through the phone I pull you and drag your voice around

[Chorus 3]

  E                       D          F#m
Afternoon vanilla sun crawls away across the lawn
            A
Through the phone I pull you and drag your voice around
     Em                      D
Afternoon vanilla sun crawls away without a sound
            A                    Em
Through the phone I pull you and drag your voice around
     Em           A          D
Afternoon vanilla sun crawls away across the lawn
            A                    Em
Through the phone I pull you and drag your voice around
     Em                       D              Dm
Afternoon vanilla sun [crawls away without a sound
            A                    Em A
Through the phone I pull you and drag your voice around]

[Outro]

Em                         D
I, I don't know why I'm so mean each time I come to visit
A                          Em
I, I don't know why I'm so mean each time I come around
Em                         D
I, I don't know why I'm so mean each time I come to visit
A                          Em
I, I don't know why I'm so mean each time I come around
Em                         D
I, I don't know why I'm so mean each time I come to visit
A                          Em
I, I don't know why I'm so mean each time I come around
