Chords by Hrad for Ultimate-tabs.com, 2014

F Em Dm C

F                          Em
When some unfamiliar faces came to shop in our old house,
Dm                                  C
I didn't bother trying to stop them until they emptied it out.
F                                 Em                      Dm
I was standing by the front door, stuffing cash in a jar, taking payment for our failures,
C
I only wanted to alarm you.

F                                     Em 
So when they asked me for directions, I sold them our map,
Dm                                   
I sold our shovels and our flashlights,
C                                           
They took our duffel bag with a ton of room, but a broken strap.
F                                     Em
The hungry patrons hit the graveyard, I lit a joint in the house
Dm                                                            C
Where there was nothing but our mattress and the same soft shelter of sheets

Where nobody found us.

F Em Dm C

F                               Em
I let them strip your mausoleum so nothing was left
Dm           
But they forgot to close the casket,
C
They sent you shivering to my doorstep
F                           Em 
Gently clawing at my window when I was less than awake
Dm 
I slid it up for you to slither through
C
I heard you howling

"Just take me!
                    F
Just take me to the rusty city we perfected
Em            
That holy summer we first found!
Dm                                            C
The place you're stubbornly protecting is the only pretty thing that we own now.
F                             Em 
And we can stay here to wither in your garden of Eden
Dm                                                 C
But your fantasy's a prison and you're serving a sentence you can't stop repeating

F Em Dm C

F                            Em 
Can you see the secret exit? The false wall in obsession?
Dm                                  C                           
You'll only fit through the doorway when you relinquish your possessions
F                                 Em 
So leave everything you've stolen that you can't give back
Dm                                         C
And don't replace what you've been missing until you know what you're lacking
F                                Em 
Leave everything you've borrowed and kept for yourself
Dm                                                       C
You can't unbreak our broken leases holding on to broken pieces, so return them!

No guilt, no sorry speeches.

F Em Dm C
