[Verse]GDeep inside the country, he went out for some airAmid an awful night of eating household objects on a dareC GA tea towel, a handful of refrigerator magnets, and a watchGHe staggered through the mudroom, got sick out in the streetThe towel in tiny pieces, magnetic letters neatC GAnd now arranged in such a way that they should spell his lovers nameAnd time was of the essenceGThe engine turning over, the summons in the shopHe could not recall the number, but he knew it was a lotCHis belly warm with drinkGHe leaned into the freeway in the nightGInvestigating exit ramps, waiting for a signScanning up the A.M. band, sliding down the vineCHe felt his stomach turn again and pulled off at the parkGShe was standing in the black oak, carving poems in the bark[Chorus] (not 100% sure on this part)e|---------------------------------------------------------------------|B|--3-------------0--------------------0-------------0-----------------|G|------0------0-----0------0--------------0-------------0-------------|D|---------0h2----------2-----------2-------------2--------------------|A|----------------------------------2-------------2--------------------|E|--------------------------------0-0-----------0-0--------------------|C G Eme|---------------------------------------------------------------------|B|--3-------------0--------------------0-------------2-----------------|G|------0------0-----0------0--------------0-------------2-------------|D|---------0h2----------2-----------2-------------2--------------------|A|----------------------------------2----------0-----------------------|E|--------------------------------0-0----------------------------------|C G Em A [Verse 2]GPlanted in the cafe, her bloodied saber drawnMarking up the manuscript, hard against the dawnC GShe turns on the recorder and pulls a nervous breath before she speaksG"7 A.M. Tuesday, January 9Realizing this may put my career on the line"CThe cafe man approaches, with a corded phone and tells herG"It's for you"GSomewhere in the static, a disembodied voiceThe circumstances changed, she will not have a choiceCThe line dies, crackles soft, then sputters back to lifeG (hold)"They found him at the black oak, they dug him up last night."[Chorus and Outro]e|---------------------------------------------------------------------|B|--3-------------0--------------------0-------------0-----------------|G|------0------0-----0------0--------------0-------------0-------------|D|---------0h2----------2-----------2-------------2--------------------|A|----------------------------------2-------------2--------------------|E|--------------------------------0-0-----------0-0--------------------|C G Eme|---------------------------------------------------------------------|B|--3-------------0--------------------0-------------2-----------------|G|------0------0-----0------0--------------0-------------2-------------|D|---------0h2----------2-----------2-------------2--------------------|A|----------------------------------2----------0-----------------------|E|--------------------------------0-0----------------------------------|C G Em A ************************************ | h Hammer-on ************************************
