Jason Boland & The Stragglers
Obsessed
Rancho Alto
Standard Tuning / No CapoIntro: D
Verse 1:
I stand a head and shoulder above her
She towers over me inside a dream
What kind of angry fool would want another
Obsessed with being lonely it seems
Verse 2:
Just one kiss from her and I’m a drunker
Inside her mouth I recall the taste of wine
A meditating man might deny the hunger
Obsessed with being lonely all the time
Chorus:
Was she something I thought needed to be broken
Was I something she thought needed to be healed
The flames continued on through out the evening
Obsessed with finding something we could feel
Instrumental: G ‘ D ‘ G ‘ G/F# – A ‘ D ‘ A ‘ D
Verse 3:
In the morning light the ashes gently smoldered
We picked up the pieces best we could
Afraid it was the last time I’d ever hold her
Obsessed with being lonely for good
Chorus:
Was she something I thought needed to be broken
Was I something she thought needed to be healed
The flames continued on through out the evening
Obsessed with finding something we could feel
Was she something I thought needed to be broken
And was I something she thought needed to be healed
Yeah the flames continued on through out the evening
Obsessed with finding something we could feel
Yeah the flames continued on through out the evening
Obsessed with finding something we could feel
Outro: D
