First Aid Kit – The Old Routine (Ukulele)

G              C           D          G
So you come on home walk through the door

C            D                             Em
She's in the kitchen searching through the drawers

G               C                 D              Em
So you stop and watch her and ask what she's looking for

G        C    D    G
She says she's not sure

G           C            D            G
And it gets late and you turn off the lights

C           D                   Em
Her body so close to you in the night

G                C                 D           Em
But you dare not touch her and you don't want to fight

G           C  D  G
so you just say Goodnight

C            D      G       Em
This old routine will drive you mad

C           D            G         Em
It's just a mumble never spoken out loud

C                 D          G            Em
And sometimes you don't even know why you loved her

         C           D                G
Well you look at her now and you see why

G                    C   D          G
And your youngest is out fighting a war

C            D                    Em
But he won't say what he's fighting for

G        D            C       Em
If he's gone because of war for you

G          C  D    G
in which you rather true

C            D      G        Em
This old routine will drive you mad

C           D             G         Em
It's just a mumble never spoken out loud

C             D            G                      Em
Sometimes you can't even recall the sound of his laughter Oh well

C              D             G
did you ever really know the sound

C           D      G           Em
This old routine will drive you mad

C           D            G         Em
It's just a mumble never spoken out loud

C             D          G                     Em
Sometimes you don't even know how you're still standing Well she

C            D               Em
