A-riff
Shed the days like skin, pray for evenings in
                                                         D-riff
Hold their hands in the street when you walk them off to school
A-riff
A box too full to shut, cardboard paper cut
                                                          D-riff
Bleeding edge of a picture of your parents when they were cool
E F#m D A So much to say, I forget to start E F#m D A There goes a day, fading as it passes E F#m D A Forget the grey, let it fall apart Bm D It's okay A-riff I like you in glasses Shovels in the sand, a play-doh wedding band A drowning princess in a tangle of towels on the floor An old familiar ache, the little pills we take The thoughtless kindness of a coffee cup waiting by the door So much to say, I forget to start There goes a day, fading as it passes Forget the grey, let it fall apart It's okay (bridge: same as intro, hold the D when it goes to the verse) It's on the board, someone's been double-booking I've got time, how is your next week looking? House shifts into place, a little breathing space The radiators and the floorboards will argue while we sleep There's water in the walls, the stairs make waterfalls Down in the basement the soft sound of a river digging deep So much to say, I forget to start There goes a day, fading as it passes Forget the grey, let it fall apart So much to say, I forget to start There goes a day, fading as it passes Forget the grey, let it fall apart It's okay I like you in glasses
