Chords

D7sus4 xx0213 [Intro] (Strum without muting the strings; Strum D7 once and let it ring)
                Am
You used to be scared of the water

                   C
You're safe by the side of your father

                  G
Your sense of the world lay

               D7
In your little home by the harbor
[Verse 1] (Play D7 without muting; strum D7sus4 once and let it ring)
                   Am
You've always felt small in the city

                    C
You think that last fall you were with me

                G
And all of your old clothes

                 D7               D7sus4
Are still in the hall of my building
[Chorus] (Don't mute strings when playing D7)
                Am
You never asked once

                    C
No, you never asked why

                        G
If I was putting things off

                      D7                  D7sus4
If I was drinking too much of that red wine

                        Am
Oh, you'd wear yourself thin

                 C
And accept every sin

               G
And if I glued myself shut

          D7
You would find your way in
(Short Interlude: Strum D7sus4 down-up four times, then D7 once) [Verse 2]
               Am
We gambled our souls to the summer

                C
And rattled our bones to the thunder

                 G
We watched every sunset

             D7               D7sus4
Until we got sick of each other

                  Am
You've always said fall was your season

                C
That everyone's here for a reason

                G
I stare at your packed bags

                 D7                 D7sus4
And ask what the hell you were meaning
[Chorus]
               Am
You never asked once

                    C
No, you never asked why

                        G
If I was putting things off

                      D7                 D7sus4
If I was drinking too much of that red wine

                        Am
Oh, you'd wear yourself thin

                 C
And accept every sin

               G
And if I glued myself shut

          D7             D7sus4
You would find your way in
[Interlude] Play normal strumming pattern while humming;
Am - C - G - D7 - D7sus4
(On the second set, strum D7 down-up four times, then D7sus4 down-up four times, then D7 once)
[Bridge] (Play each chord once and let it ring; Start strumming without muting on last D7)
              Am
It only feels real after raining

                C
And hearts only heal after breaking

               G
I stare at the tree line

               D7
And notice the leaves aren't changing

                  Am
And does the wind blow in Cape Elizabeth

             C
Constant and cold, how do we live with this?

           G
Love was a deadline

                          D7
I'll spend the rest of my life fucking missing it
(Play D7sus4 down-up four times while increasing volume; strum D7 once) [Chorus] (Play last Am once)
                Am
You never asked once

                    C
No, you never asked why

                        G
If I was putting things off

                      D7                  D7sus4
If I was drinking too much of that red wine

                        Am
Oh, you'd wear yourself thin

                 C
And accept every sin

               G
And if I glued myself shut

          D7             D7sus4       Am
You would find your way in
