Calgary Girls (acoustic)

Intro: x In dark corners and bars and ballrooms Boys get childish and grow up too soon I sit and stare at the Calgary girls Pretty hair and their mummysâ'' pearls on Till the fear wells up and hits me Send letters to a comfortable history I used to have it all Now my head falls hard and alone Onto a motel pillow And I know thereâ''s a script that I could rehearse And there are lines and I could make them work But I donâ''t want them, I want you And itâ''s not like thereâ''s a space that I need to fill Or like I have any time we could kill But I donâ''t need this, I need you And this is the exact thing that I always do We used to lie right here and speak We were fucking great between these sheets That you bought to replace the old ones she left when she needed her own space And I took the hand-me-downs And I flipped the covers inside out And Iâ''ll pretend that Iâ''m different now And the first time we made love It was dark and we were drunk In someone elseâ''s, someone elseâ''s hostel bathroom And you turned your back to me And I said â''If this is the first of many then turn back around, so I can fucking kiss you.â'� And I know thereâ''s a script that I could rehearse And there are lines and I could make them work But I donâ''t want them, I want you And itâ''s not like thereâ''s a space that I need to fill Or like I have any time we could kill But I donâ''t need this, I need you And this is the exact thing that I always do * And if you see me again Holding up some dive barâ''s end * With the whiskey sat far too naturally between my legs * Will you saunter over smokily and tell me about your family * And Iâ''ll tell you you were right When you said Iâ''d end up lonely * And Iâ''ll tell you that my life didnâ''t crack up to what our life wouldâ''ve been * And Iâ''ll stand up to say something And fall straight back in my seat And youâ''ll check your watch and say â''Itâ''s probably time for you to leave.â'� And Iâ''ll stand up to say something brave and grand, fall straight back in my seat You will check your watch and say â''Itâ''s probably time for you to leave.â'� And you will offer me a ride Only cos itâ''s so fucking cold outside You were always far too kind And I know thereâ''s a script that I could rehearse And there are lines and I could make them work But I donâ''t want them, I want you And itâ''s not like thereâ''s a space that I need to fill Or like I have any time we could kill But I donâ''t need this, I fucking need you And this is the exact thing that I always do THANKS GUYS, It's my first tab so feel free to correct and comment, Smith Street forever < ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
