Intro 1
(C major) (G/B) (D/A)
(E minor/B) (D/A) (C/G)
(C major) (G major) (G6) (G minoraj7) (G6)
Verse 1
It's a (C major) still life (G/B) water color (D/A)
Of a (C major) now-late (G/B) after noon (D/A)
As the (C major) sun shines (G/B) through the (A minor) curtain lace
And (G major) shadows wash the (G6) room (G minoraj7) (G6)
And we (E minor) sit and drink our (C/E) coffee (E minor)
(F major) Couched in our indifference,
like (E major) shells upon the shore
You can (D major) hear the ocean roar
In the (C major) dangling (G/B) conver (D/A) sation
And the (E minor/B) super (D/A) ficial (C/G) sighs
The (C major) borders of our
(G major) lives (G6) (G minoraj7) (G6)

Verse 2
And you (C major) read your (G/B) Emily (D/A) Dickinson
And (C major) I my (G/B) Robert (D/A) Frost
And we (C major) note our (G/B) place with (A minor) book markers
That (G major) measure what we've (G6) lost (G minoraj7) (G6)
Like a (E minor) poem poorly (C/E) written (E minor)
We are (F major) verses out of rhythm
(E major) Couplets out of rhyme
In (D major) syncopated time
And the (C major) dangling (G/B) conver (D/A) sation
And the (E minor/B) super (D/A) ficial (C/G) sighs
Are the (C major) borders of our
(G major) lives (G6) (G minoraj7) (G6)
Verse 3
Yes, we (C major) speak of (G/B) things that (D/A) matter
With (C major) words that (G/B) must be (D/A) said
"Can a (C major) nalysis (G/B) be worthwhile?" (A minor)
"Is the (G major) theater really dead?" (G6) (G minoraj7) (G6)
And how the (E minor) room is softly (C/E) faded (E minor)
And I (F major) only kiss your shadow,
I (E major) cannot feel your hand
You're a (D major) stranger now unto me
Lost in the (C major) dangling (G/B) conver (D/A) sation
And the (E minor/B) super (D/A) ficial (C/G) sighs
In the (C major) borders of our
(G major) lives (G6) (G minoraj7) (G6)
(G major)
