Verse 1
The (D major) city (G major) has sex with it (C major) self, I suppose
As the concrete (D major) collides,
the scenery (G major) grows (D major)
And the lonely (G major) once bandaged
lay (C major) fully exposed
Having (D major) undressed their wounds
for each other
Verse 2
And there is a (G major) boy in a basement
with a (C major) four track machine
He's been strumming (D major) and screaming all (G major) night,
down there
The tape hiss will cover
the words (C major) that he sings
But then they say it's (D major) better
to bury your sadness
(D minor) (D major) In a

Verse 3
(C major) graveyard or garden
that (G major) waits for the spring
To (A minor) awake from its sleep (C major)
and burst into (D major) green
And I've (G major) cried and you would
(E minor) think I would better for it
But the sadness just (D major) sleeps
and it stays in your (C major) spine
Verse 4
For the rest of your (C major) life (G major)
And I've learned and you'd (C major) think
(E minor) I'd be something more now
But it just goes to show (D major) it is
(E minor) not what (D major) you (C major) know
It's what you were (G major) thinking
at the time.
(A minor) (E minor) (F major)
Verse 5
This (G major) feeling's familiar,
I've (C major) been here before
In a (D major) kitchen this quiet I (G major) waited for
a sign or just something
That (C major) might reassure me of (D major) anything
close (D minor) to (C major) meaning or motion
(With a (G major) reason to move)
Verse 6
I (A minor) need (A major) something (A minor) I
(C major) want to be close (D major) to
And I scream, (G major)
but I still (E minor) don't know why I do it
(C major) Because the (E minor) sound (C major) never stays, (D major)
it just swells and (C major) de cays
So what is the (D minor) point? (G major) (D major)
Verse 7
Why (G major) try to (E minor) fight what is now
so certain?
The truth (C major) is all that (D major) I am is a passing
event (C major) that will be for (G major) gotten
