Hello Exile

    A
Her language was a perfect phrase
    C#m
Her playful prose followed me for days
F#m
Down the alleyways of my desire
         D             Dm
To their final resting place

     A
In a vacation town where I lived year round
    C#m
She migrated here with the summer crowds
       F#m
And we fell in love under impossible smiles
         D                     Dm
Life was perfect if just for a little while

         Bm
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
      D
Hello exile

      A                  E
And a thousand years may come and go
       F#m          D
We may never meet another soul
A                         F#m             E
Here on our own island of Elba in the Poconos
         Bm       D (hold)
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Hello exile
A    C#m    F#m    D  Dm

       A
And we bathed in the sun
Cut our jeans into shorts
   C#m
Outstared every star in the sky
          F#m
Under the cover of nowhere the present was a present
          D                      Dm
It looked beautiful on you every night

       A
But we knew it would end yeah we knew it all along
         C#m
It was a future never reconciled
           F#m                                             Dm
It's as if letting your shackled heart feel loved was more difficult than total denial

         Bm
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
      D

A                         F#m             E

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Hello exile
A    C#m    F#m    D  Dm x2

        A
Now I imagined her memory would fade in the void
      C#m
She'd only reappear every now and again
    F#m
I'd smile at the thought of us
Go back to my day
             D              Dm
But that was purely wishful thinking

         Bm
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
      D

Here on my own island of Elba in the Poconos
         F#m               A
And displayed on the nightstand of my mind
    E                           D
Are pictures of you from the summertime
  F#m                   A                         E
Swimming in the Delaware wringing out your long blonde hair
         Bm
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
      D
Hello exile
         A     A/G#  E  F#m
