The Decemberists – A Record Year For Rainfall (Ukulele)

Fmaj7         E7      Am
I read in the paper today

            C               Fmaj7     E7
It's been a record year for rainfall

             Am                           C
And you were leaning against the bathroom wall

        Fmaj7        E7
In your lonely dress

         Am         C   Fmaj7  E7
Was your only dress

Fmaj7   E7
stand accusing

Am
across

        C              Fmaj7   E7
I got a temper set for tender

Am                                   C
And you were shrugging it off like a feather

       Fmaj7   E7
Saying "oh...

                       Am        C  Fmaj7
Would you look at this weather"

Fmaj7      E7            Am
What's the use of all of this?

      C                   Fmaj7
Is to remember you in the entire

       E7               Am
As i'm watching it slip away

           C             Fmaj7
And in the annuls of the empire

       E7
Did it look this gray

           Am  C  Fmaj7  E7
Before the falllllll

           Am  C  Fmaj7  E7
Before the falllllll

   Fmaj7     E7        Am
So rake your thumbnail across

    C              Fmaj7   E7
The stretch of the patina

Am                C
Revealing a proserpina

     Fmaj7       E7
In a low recline

     Am              C  Fmaj7
In a steep decline

Fmaj7      E7            Am
What's the use of all of this?

      C                   Fmaj7
Is to remember you in the entire

       E7               Am
As i'm watching it slip away

           C             Fmaj7
And in the annuls of the empire

       E7
Did it look this gray?

           Am  C  Fmaj7  E7
Before the faaaallllll?

           Am  C  Fmaj7  E7
Before the faaaallllll?
