G Dm
I watched the sun come up on Portland
G Dm C
I waved goodbye to all my friends
(C) F G C
I packed my car and headed to LA
(C) F G
I gave away all my loose ends
G Dm
Somebody said you gotta get away
G Dm C
To wanna go back home again
(C) F G C
I left my universe standing there
(C) F G
Holding the hand of my best friend
F Dm G
And it's laughter that I feel when I think of you
F Dm G F
It's one more dusty rose about to turn
(F) Dm G
I'll see you when I reach New Mexico
C F G
If I'm in the mood to crash and burn
(G) Dm G
I wrote a letter that I never mailed
(G) Dm C
I rehearsed a dialogue in my head
(C) F G C
In case you ever wanted to track me down
(C) F G
I'll take my cell phone to bed
F Dm G
And it's laughter that I hear when I close my eyes
F Dm G
And it's one more punchline I forgot to learn
F Dm G C
I call you up when my bottle's dry
(C) F G
I'm on my way to crash and burn
G Dm
Antigone laid across the road
G Dm C
And let a mack truck leave her there for dead
(C) F G C
Just because her lover split the scene
(C) F G
Well love might be great break but why lose your head
F Dm G
Well, it's laughter that comes up when I cry for you
F Dm G
And my heart may break again before it learns
F Dm G
And I might be stupid enough to want to fall again
C F G C
Cause I've gotten use to the crash and burn
(C) F G
I say I've gotten use to the crash and burn
