The Graveyard Near The House
The Airborne Toxic Event
Capo 1st fret
Chords: D A G Bm
Intro: D A G Bm
Verse
D
The other day when we were walking by
A
The graveyard near the house you asked me
G
If I thought
Bm
We would ever die
D
And if life and love both fade so
A
Predictably we've made ourselves
G
A kind of
Bm
Predictable lie.
Pre Chorus
D
So I pictured us like corpses
A
Lying side by side in pieces
G Bm
In some dark and lonely plot, under a bough
D
We looked so silly there, all decomposed
A
Half turned to dust, in tattered clothes
G Bm
Though we probably look just as silly now.
Chorus
G D A
Bye bye bye, bye, bye bye, to all this dog-eared innocence
G D A
I can't pretend that I can tell you what is going to happen next
Bm
Or how to be
D A Bm A G
But you have no idea 'bout me
D
Do you?
Verse 2
D
And it left me to wonder if
A
People ever know each other,
G
Or just stumble around like strangers
Bm
In the dark
D
Because sometimes you seem so strange to me
A
I must seem strange to you
G
We're like two actors
Bm
Playing our parts.
Pre Chorus 2
D
Did you memorise your lines? 'Cause I did
A
Here's the part where I get so mad
G Bm
I tell you that I can't forget the past
D
You get so quiet now and you seem somehow
A
Like a lost and lonely child
G Bm
And you just hope that the moment won't last.
Chorus 2
G D A
Bye bye bye, bye, bye bye, to all this dog-eared innocence
G D A
I can't pretend that I can tell you what is going to happen next
Bm
Or how to be
D A Bm A G
But you have no idea 'bout me
D A Bm A G
You have no idea 'bout me
D
Do you?
Bridge
G Bm
Still there's always a way around
G D
There's something tying our feet to the ground
A Bm
A moment passed, we hear how it sounds
D A Bm A G
And then it seems a little less profound
D A Bm A D
Like we're all going the same way down
D A Bm A D
Like we're all going the same way down
D A Bm A D
I'm just trying to write it all down...
D A
'Cause I write songs and you write letters
G A
We are tied like two in tethers and
D A
We talk and read, and laugh and sleep
G A
At night in bed together and
D A G A
You wake in tears sometimes, I can see the thoughts flash across your eyes
D A G A
They say, "Darling will you be kind? Will you be a good man and stay behind,
Bm
When I get old?"
G A
And then the letters all pass through my head
D A Bm
With the words that I was told,
G A
About the fading flesh of life, and love,
D A Bm
The failures of the bold.
G A
I could list each crippling fear like I'm
D A Bm
Reading from a will.
D A Bm A G
And I'll defy every one and love you still
D A Bm A G
I will carry you with me up every hill
G A
And if you die before I die,
D A Bm
I'll carve your name out of the sky.
G A
I'll fall asleep with your memory,
D A Bm
And dream of where you lie.
G A D A
Maybe better to move on and to let life just carry on,
Bm
And I may be wrong.
D
Still I'll try.
G A D A Bm
Because it's better to love, whether you win, or lose, or die.
G A D A Bm
It's better to love, whether you win, or lose, or die.
G A D A Bm
It's better to love, and I will love you 'till I die.
A D
Thanks!
