["Chesterfield King"]
[ GC GC GC GC ]
[Verse]
G E B (p) C (p)
We stood in your room and laughed out loud
G E A C
Suddenly the laughter died, we were caught in an eye to eye
G E B (p) C (p)
We sat on the floor and did we sit close
G E
I could smell your thoughts and thought,
A C
"Do you want to touch a lot like me?"
G C G
Too scared to say a thing
[Pre-chorus]
B (p) C (p)
Left your house and kicked myself
E (p) D (p) C
Put those feelings on a shelf to die
B (p) C (p)
Guess I'm not the gambling type
E (p) D (p) C
Think of what the two of us had lost Had lost
[Verse]
I needed some time to think it out
7-Eleven parking lot, a toothless woman turned and stopped
Gave her a dime and a Chesterfield
She leaned down and kissed my cheek
I was scared but it felt sweet Felt so sweet
[Pre-chorus]
She asked me if I had a name
Told her I was glued up on some chick
We sat and smoked against the wall
Drank a beer, felt the chill of fall Of fall
[Chorus]
G F#/G E D C
I took my car and drove it down the hill by your house
B A
I drove so fast
G F#/G E D C
The wind it couldn't cool me down so I turned it around
B A
And came back up
G F#/G E D
You were waiting on your step, steam chilling off your
C B A
breath and water in your eyes
G F#/G E D
We pulled each other into one, parkas clinging on the
C B D
lawn, and kissed right there

...and repeat
[Pre-chorus]
Said my chicks all smoke these things
Handed you a Chesterfield King
Held your hand and watched TV
Traced the little lines along your palm Your palm
[Repeat chorus]
[Play chorus progression once, palm muting all chords]
[End on G]
