Jonathan Coulton – Glasses (Guitar)

A
Shed the days like skin

A
Pray for evenings in

                                                         D     A D A
Hold their hands in the street when you walk them off to school

A
A box too full to shut

A
Cardboard paper cut

                                                          D   A D A
Bleeding edge of a picture of your parents when they were cool

E          D         A
So much to say, I forget to start

E            D
There goes a day, fading as it passes

E          D            A
Forget the grey, let it fall apart

Bm   D
It's okay

              A
I like you in glasses

A
Shovels in the sand

A
A playdough wedding band

                                             D
A drowning princess in a tangle of towels on the floor

A
An old familiar ache

A
The little pills we take

                                                    D
The thoughtless kindness of a coffee cup waiting by the door

E          D         A
So much to say, I forget to start

E            D
There goes a day, fading as it passes

E          D            A
Forget the grey, let it fall apart

Bm   D
It's okay

E
It's on the board

G              D            E
Someone's been double-booking

            G
I've got time

       D
How is your next week looking?

A
House shifts into place

                                             D             A
The radiators and the floorboards will argue while we sleep

A
There's water in the walls

A
The stairs make waterfalls

                                                       D
Down in the basement the soft sound of a river digging deep

E          D         A
So much to say, I forget to start

E            D
There goes a day, fading as it passes

E          D            A         D
Forget the grey, let it fall apart

E          D         A
So much to say, I forget to start

E            D
There goes a day, fading as it passes

E          D            A
Forget the grey, let it fall apart

Bm   D
It's okay
