C F [Verse]
C One from East St.
F
Louis with a scar beneath his eye C Left the kitchen spotless
F
on the day he said goodbye D7 Breakaway republic dude,
Am
supremely filthy mouth Em Copiah, Mississipi;
F G
points much further south [Chorus] C F It's never light outside yet
G C F G
when they climb into the van C F Remember at your peril,
G C
forget the ones you can [Verse]
C Leave home feeling empty,
F
change planes in Taipei C Stay awake the whole timе,
F
end up several worlds away D7 Thе house was almost full that day,
Am
they made a space for you Em This world is sad and broken,
F G
gotta fix a crack or two [Chorus]
C F Rest until you're rested,
G C F G
climb back onto the caravan C F Remember at your peril,
G C
forget the ones you can [Bridge]
D7 C And then just when you think
G C F Fm
you've learned how to forget Bm Am You learn it's just the ones
G
who haven't risen to
F
the surface yet [Verse]
C Absence after absence,
F
keep the place secure C This will be the last time that
F
I do this, I'm pretty sure D7 No one lasts for long in
this profession,
Am Em
so they say F G Maybe see you again someday [Chorus]
C F Every endpoint fixed forever
G C F G
on the day its arc began C F Remember at your peril,
G Am D7 F G
forget the ones you can C F G Forget the ones you can [Outro]
