Song: The Party
Tabbed by: Cristian Mendez-Garcia
**This is how she plays it live**
Verse:
Honey the party went away quickly but
Oh thats the trouble with ticking and talking
I lick the ice cube from your empty glass so we
Stayed much too late 'Til they're cleaning the ashtrays
-
Do you have change or a button or cash? All my
Pockets hang out like two surrendered flags Oh but
I'd pay anything to keep my conscience clean I'm
Keeping my eye on the exit sign steady now
Fill: (lightly mute the strings with right hand)

Verse 2:
How did we get here? With creaks in these chairs Oh there
Aren't enough hands to point all the fingers But
I sit transfixed by a hole in your t-shirt I
Said much too much in their trying to speak up
Play Fill Again -
