[Verse 1]
A [tab] G Pictures hanging diagonally A Drive through crying in a milkshake G It wasn't built to last
[Verse 2]
A Up in the front seat G You were playing with the station A And I was fidgeting with the heat D G Em Looking back to the vibrant days of racket in the hall
[Chorus]
D A Caution to the breeze Em D A Say you'll climb your way out of your wake now-ow Em Velvet curtain drawn D A Flowers at your feet C G A Say you'll contemplate how you're weighed down
[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]
A G The pulse of the brakelight is the colour of burning embers A If you wake up, will you remember G The awful things I said at the edge of the bed?
[Verse 4]
A Thrashing like a great white G As they rolled you up on a stretcher
(I feel the northern tide crashing)
A
And the faint words of Jessica Fletcher(on the pines)
D G Em Were drowned out by the sound of racket in the hall
(I feel the northern tide crashing on the pines)
[Chorus]
D A Caution to the breeze Em D A Say you'll climb your way out of your wake now-ow
[Bridge 1]
Dmaj7 Gmaj7 Those days, I'd never let you fall apart Dmaj7 Gmaj7 But things fade like the scent of a brand new car Dmaj7 Why would I ever fall in love again E7 Em D A When every detail is over the guardrail? Em D A Say you'll climb your way out of your wake now
[Chorus]
A C Em A Say you'll contemplate how you're weighed down
[Post-Chorus]
Em D A Are you awake now? Em D A Are you awake now?
[Outro]
Em Racket in the hall D A Caution to the breeze Em Velvet curtain drawn D A Flowers at your feet
