Neutral Milk Hotel – Trilogy (Guitar Live)

Am
Watch the wind

                                     E
Blow your cigarette smoke through my window and out to the sky

Am
Message sent

                                    E
Drilled into your heart but now the ink will fade before the night is through

   Am    E   Am  E
My dear

D          Am                       E
Where were you when the cracks were forming?

D          Am                    E
Where were you when it all caved in?

D        Am                 E
You were sleeping safe that morning

D           Am            E
Holding insecurities that burrow underneath your skin and fade away

Am
All along, another twisted moment's gone that will

E
Never pass this way again

    Am
And through it all, I thought there'd be some shred of hope but

E
Faith I've found will do you in

    Am
And all the words that build into a bridge of love between me and you

        E
It will stumble, crack, and fail to fly

           Am
And now my only one, where have you gone?

         E
Are you another heart that I must say goodbye, my dear?

D          Am                       E
Where were you when the cracks were forming?

D          Am                    E
Where were you when it all caved in?

D        Am                 E
You were sleeping safe that morning

D           Am            E
Holding insecurities that burrow underneath your skin and fade a-

Am
Goldaline my dear

E
Far away from here

    Am
But now we move to feel

E
Place your body here

                                         Am    E  Am
Let your skin begin to blend itself with mine

Am
Don't you be afraid for this

E
Green with hollow days on

Am
Never be afraid for this

E
Green with hollow days on

         C     G
I really burnt you

         D                     Em
I really made all your opiates wrong

               C     G
Wait around to hurt you

                         D                                    Em
Bring it all on down and all around and see which one gets off

               C
And I aint moving

G                             D                                     Em
Once you mistake the songs it stings and stays and waiting here for you

                          C
But, now there is nothing

                                  G
All but the weight that is coming

                      D                     Em  C  G  D  Em
See it on the way and on the way and on and on
