C - x3201x
Cmaj9/B - x2001x
Am - x0221x
F - xx3211
The fingering pattern is a pretty simple root note every beat pattern, but Kris Delmhorst doesn't sing
in time with the strumming pattern. I tried to match the chords to the words, but check the recording
to get a feel for the talk/sing pattern. Enjoy!
[Intro]
C Cmaj9/B Am F
C Cmaj9/B F
[Verse 1]
C Cmaj9/B
We got the news
Am F
Ithaca got snow
C Cmaj9/B Am F
It was just that kind of day
C Cmaj9/B Am
All I know is that you've gone
F
And left us here below
C Cmaj9/B Am F
All I wish is that you'd stay
C Cmaj9/B Am
We leave this cursed city
F C Cmaj9/B Am
In the same way we come in
F C
We trace the roads
Cmaj9/B Am F
On our way out
C Cmaj9/B Am
We shed our certainties like clothes
Am Cmaj9/B F
Am Cmaj9/B F
[Verse 2]
C Cmaj9/B Am F
We thought this was our sacrifice
C Cmaj9/B Am F
Cmaj9/But the world knew otherwise
C Cmaj9/B Am F
And took you from us
C
Cmaj9/Before your time
Cmaj9/B Am F
Right before our eyes
C Cmaj9/B
We think we're walking home
Am F
Cmaj9/But you can't go there unless it wants you
C Cmaj9/B
Stand out on the streets
Am F
And still the destination haunts you
C Cmaj9/B Am
Is that where you are now?
F C
To have believed that's true is love
any clearer now that we have love
Am
And we don't have you
Am Cmaj9/B F
Am Cmaj9/B F
[Verse 3]
C Cmaj9/B Am F
It took this much to make me see
C Cmaj9/B Am F
Still I barely understand
C Cmaj9/B Am F
Love will always, always be larger
C Cmaj9/B Am F C
And different from our plans
Cmaj9/B Am
Love will never listen to us
F
And why should it?
C Cmaj9/B Am F
Love knows the score
C Cmaj9/B Am F
It builds better songs than we do
C Cmaj9/B Am
It sings a better metaphor
Am Cmaj9 F
