        D                   G          A                        D
        Payphones all were ringing as the crowd went roaring    by,
        D               G              A                D
        Lovely dancers  swayin' to an   island lulla    by 
        D                    G         A                        D
        Beside the southern ocean, taking stock of what's to    be 
        D                  G                A            D
        Writing you this letter that you'll prob'ly never see 
 
CHORUS 1:
     G           F#m    A             G     F#m   A
     But I      can't   help but be ruled by inconsistencies, 
        G       F#m           A         D
        not     unique just distantly in love. 
 
        D                    G            A                  D
        Tried to phone from Paris, thinking things could be arranged 
        D                  G                A                   D
        Me and you would rendezvous, but I found your number changed 
        D                G             A               D
       So I drove to San Ramos where the crazy painter dwells 
        D                G             A                   D
        Toasted our old photographs still up there on his shelves 
 
CHORUS 2:
G               F#m     A       G       F#m     A
But     I       can't   help but be     ruled by        my antiquities, 
        G       F#m     A       D
        not     unique just     distantly in    love.

BRIDGE:
        F#m            G                F#m                    G
        I can't be the  one to fill your times and all your places 
        F#m            G                 E                 A
        I can't be the  one to fill your blanks and empty spaces 
 
        D                      G         A                D
        I heard it from a friend of ours I saw in Timber Bay 
        D               G              A           D
        You had a new   lover who had   stolen you away 
        D                 G                    A               D
        That could be the reason     that I     never got in touch 
        D       G       A       D
It      may presents slight     problems if he  loves you half as       much 
 
CHORUS 3:
                G     F#m              A         F#m    A
        Because I can't help but be ruled by my antiquities, 
        G       F#m             A               D
        not     unique just     distantly in    love. 
 
        G               F#m     A       G              F#m          A
        You know        I       can't   help but be part of my own philosophies, 
        G       F#m     A       D
        not     unique just     distantly in    love.
