Band : Conor Oberst and The Mystic Valley Band Song : Get-Well-Cards Album : Conor Oberst www.ConorOberst.com G D A peacock, people left the plumes in a pile C D They look good to fold G D And the Gulf water's warm like a bathtub C D Full of lavender and epsom salt G D See a bleach blond boy put his longboard down C D Help his girl get her sunscreen on G D I thought about you in your little house C D Think you're lonely but I could be wrong and... C D I wanna be a bootlegger C D Wanna mix you up something strange C D Braid your hair like a sister C D Maim you like a hurricane G D C D Right there, that's the postman sleeping in the sand G D C D He's got a letter to deliver, but I can't stay mad G D C D Right there, that's the postman sleeping in the sand G D He's got a get-well-card to deliver C D C D He's gonna do it by hand, he's gonna do it by hand G D Now they drive the cars up and down the beach C D It's ridiculous and everybody knows G D Hear the Mustangs rev at the four way stop C D You get ghosted when the light says go G D But in a town like this, in the chequered flag dawn C D It's so empty you could make somebody dream G D So maybe it's you, in your four-post bed C D Found asleep with still blood in your teeth and... C D I wanna be your happiness C D I wanna be your common sense pain C D Wrap your head in a picket fence C D Rebuild after the hurricane G D C D Right there, that's the postman sleeping in the sand G D C D He's got a letter to deliver, but i'm still not mad G D C D Right there, that's the postman sleeping in the sand G D He's got a get-well-card to deliver C D He's gonna do it by hand, C D He's gonna do it, he's gonna do it B C He's gonna do it, he's gonna do it, D G He's gonna do it, he's gonna do it... by hand G D C D Right there, that's the postman sleeping in the sand G D C D He's got a letter to deliver, but I can't stay mad G D C D Right there, that's the postman asleep in the sand G D He's got a headstack now to deliver C D He's gonna do it by hand, C D He's gonna do it, he's gonna do it B C He's gonna do it, he's gonna do it, D G He's gonna do it, he's gonna do it... by hand
