C/U Lyrics by Fol Chen

Part II: The New December

2009

[Intro]
All the notes you wrote me
They're falling apart
I try to read them but
The phrases stop and start
And you know
And you know
I never looked too close
But you know
But you know
It's never what you want

[Verse 1]
You judge a town by the sound of its bells
Now I'm knocking on doors
But with nothing to sell
If you wake with a gun in your hand
No you don't count your bullets
You just aim at a dying man

[Chorus]
You stole the words
From the same old drinking song
You should go home
But you're scared that you'll find it's gone

[Verse 2]
I heard you said there's a ghost in your head
Now it's rattling chains
And it's burning your bed
Now you find that your sister is gone
She wrote goodbye
In the leaves on the lawn

[Chorus]
You stole the words
From the same old drinking song
You should go home
But you're scared that you'll find it's gone

[Bridge]
I'd like to see you from a million miles away
It's like I see you but I can't hear what you say
I'd like to see you from a million miles away
From a million miles away
From a million miles away

[Chorus]
You stole the words
From the same old drinking song
You should go home
But you're scared that you'll find it's gone

You stole the words
From the same old drinking song
You should go home
But you're scared that you'll find it's gone

[Outro]
I'd like to see you from a million miles away
It's like I see you but I can't hear what you say
(All the notes you wrote me)
(They're falling apart)
I'd like to see you from a million miles away
(You judge a town by the sound of its bells)
(I try to read them but)
(The phrases stop and start)
It's like I see you but I can't hear what you say
(If you wake with a gun in your hand)
(All the notes you wrote me)
(They're falling apart)
I'd like to see you from a million miles away
(Stole the words)
(I try to read them but)
(The phrases stop and start)
It's like I see you but I can't hear what you say
(All the notes you wrote me)
(They're falling apart)
I'd like to see you from a million miles away
(I try to read them but)
(The phrases stop and start)
