VERSE:
G Bm C A D
All the unpaid bills, wrestling interest rates
D C G/B A D
While past due dates wait with their bouti--neers.
And the slumping bike, strangled with a lock
that we for-got the combination to.
The old house drinks everything we hide
And hums sad songs that keep us up all night.
CHORUS:
Am/C G/B D
With the doorknobs loose
and the pipes that burst.
With the fuses blown
and the taps reversed.
VERSE:
The calendar requests a meeting to discuss
the time we waste, when would be good for you?
And the sidewalk cracks spell the way back home
In one uninterrupted palindrome.
The old house keeps all of our receipts
In envelopes secured with rubber bands.
CHORUS:
Oh, the blinking snow
and the dark dispersed
With a smeary moon
With our taps reversed
