91

C                 F
It’s ’91, a war is on
           G
I watch in black, white, and green
           C                              F              G
My mother dances around like there ain’t no rip in the seam
           Am                         F                G
While she waltzes with ghosts, I can feel what went wrong
       C             F
She’s here, but she’s not
         G
Just like her, I’m not home
[Chorus]:
C F G                            (C)
       Just like her, I’m not home
C F G                            (C)
       Just like her, I’m not home
C          F             G  (C)
Yeah, I’m here, but I’m not
[Verse 2]:
C             F             G
Storefronts change and the war on
            G
So I rip floorboards from our place
                   C                      F                     G
Black out all our windows and then I kick them from their frames
              C           F
Now, you can dance with anyone
                     G
You could tattoo yourself a fucking sleeve
              C                F
‘Cause you’re here, but you’re not
            G
Just like you, I can’t leave
[Chorus]:
C F G                            (C)
      Just like you, I can’t leave
C F G                            (C)
      Just like you, I can’t leave
C              F         G
   And I’m here, but I’m not
                    C
I’m here, but I’m not
[Verse 3]:
C                         F                        G
Then someone new comes along, steals the weight from your war
Am                        C7                     F
Flickers a light, and you’re sure that you have been here before
G          G#dim                Am
She could have anyone, but she’s asking after your dreams
C                 F
Hey, I know what I’m not
               G
But looking at you, I can’t leave
[Chorus]:
C F G                            (C)
      Just like you, I can’t leave
C F G                            (C)
      Just like you, I can’t leave
C              F         G
   And I’m here, but I’m not
                    C
I’m here, but I’m not

C                 F                       G
Said we’ve been gone just a little too long now
C                 F                       G
We’ve been gone just a little too long now
