[Verse 1]
        B               D#
Oh, the last time I saw Paul
      G#m          E              F#
I was horrible and almost let him in
      B                      D#
But I stopped and caught the wall
       G#m              E             F#             B
And my mouth got dry so all I did was take him for a spin
 
         B                D#
Yeah, we hopped inside my car
      G#m               E                       F#
And I drove in circles 'round the freight train yard
       B                     D#
And he turned the headlights off
        G#m               E
Then he pulled the bottle out
            F#                 B
And then he showed me what was love
 
 
[Chorus 1]
             E
I'll be your morning bright goodnight shadow machine
             B
I'll be your record player, baby, if you know what I mean
             E
I'll be your real tough cookie with the whiskey breath
          B
I'll be a killer and a thriller and the cause of our death
 
 
[Verse 2]
       B              D#
In the blossom of the months
      G#m               E               F#
I was sure that I'd get driven off with thought
     B                D#
So I swallowed all of it
     G#m                E                F#           B
As I realized there was no one who could kiss away my shit
 
 
[Chorus 1]
             E
I'll be your morning bright goodnight shadow machine
             B
I'll be your record player baby if you know what I mean
             E
I'll be your real tough cookie with the whiskey breath
          B
I'll be a killer and a thriller and the cause of our death

[Verse 3]
B                D#              G#m         E             F#
Paul, I know you said that you'd take me any way I came or went
         B                D#
But I'll push you from my brain
            G#m         E
See, you're gentle, baby
                     F#             B
I couldn't stay, I'd only bring you pain
 
 
[Chorus 2]
           E
I was your starry-eyed lover and the one that you saw
           B
I was your hurricane rider and the woman you'd call
             E
We were just two moonshiners on the cusp of a breath
              B
And I've been burning for you baby since the minute I left
