Paper Sack Lyrics & Tabs by Rainer Maria
Paper Sack
guitar chords lyrics
So there's your coat and here's your hat
i couldn't fight my way out of a wet paper sack
no need to leave a note once you've packed
if you can stay gone, i don't want you back.
so i sit here as you stand there
press me flat beneath the weight of that even-keeled stare
no need to leave a note if you go,
if it'd take the rosetta stone to decode.
i put two fingers to your throat
when we kiss and i take your pulse
no need to explain if you're leaving but if you stay
you gotta shake me if i stop breathing.
da dee da dee la la la la
i watch your eyes for signs of life
will your pupils dilate if i shine a light?
da dee da dee la la la la
i watch your eyes for signs of life
will your pupils dilate if i shine a light?
no need to apologize if you're dead
we should've gone out tonight, should've given it a rest.
i put two fingers to your throat
when we kiss i take your pulse
no need to explain if you're leaving but if you stay
you gotta shake me if i stop breathing.
one deep breath could clear the dust that covers you,
but if you leave i may never find another love.
so here's the tail with no end
it circles back to the mouth where it begins again
and f i sat and sang all night
it wouldn't change a thing, couldn't make anything all right.
i put two fingers to your throat
when we kiss and i take your pulse
if you can find that axe you can grind it now
in case you've forgotten, i can show you how
one deep breath could clear the thoughts that trouble you
but if you leave, i may never find another love.
da dee da dee la la la la
da dee da dee la la la la.
