The National – Weird Goodbyes (Guitar)

C                       Em
Memorize the bathwater, memorize the air

G                                D
There'll come a time I'll wanna know when I was here

C                        Em
Names on the doorframes, inches and ages

G                         D
Handprints in concrete at the softest stages

C            Em         G     D
I don't know why I don't try harder

C              G          D
I feel like throwin' towels into water

C                       G/B
Get it down to nothin', everything that matters

D/A
Fever flashes, eyelashes and traffic patterns

C                   Em
Humidity, history, chemistry and panic

G                          D
Swimsuits in the windows of electric minivans

C            Em         G     D
I don't know why I don't try harder

C                 Em           G         D
I've been goin' down some, some strange water

             C                    Em
Move forward now, there's nothin' to do

           G                 D
Can't turn around, I can't follow you

C                         G/B
Your coat's in my car, I guess you forgot

D/A
It's crazy, the things we let go of

           C                  G/B
It finally hits me, a mile's drive

           D/A
The sky is leaking, the windshield's crying

            C                   G/B
I'm feelin' sacred, my soul is stripped

           D/A
Radio's painful, the words are clipped

             C                  G/B
The grief it gets me, the weird goodbyes

           D/A
My car is creepin', I think it's dyin'

            C              G/B
I'm pullin' over until it heals

           D/A
I'm on a shoulder of lemon fields

Am             Em
What was I even leavin' for?

G            D
I keep goin' back and forth

Am              Em
I think now I'm about to see

G               D     D
Didn't know how sad it'd be

C                       Em
