The Shins – Past And Pending (Guitar)

 E                D                  A        G
"as someone sets light to the first fire of Autumn

 E          D        A              D
 we settle down, to cut ourselves apart.

 E          D               A            G
 cough and twitch from the news on your face

 E                    D       A           D
 and some foreign candle burning in your eyes

  E          D           A          G
 held to the past, too aware of the pending

  E                  D          A              D
 chill as the dawn breaks and finds us up for sale

  E         D           A               G
 enter the fog another low road descending

  E              D               A              D          A
 away from the cold lust, your house and summertime

  A              G          A
 blind to the last cursed affair

             G             A
 pistols and countless eyes

     G              A
 a trail of white blood betrays

         C              D                A
 the reckless route your craft is running

  A             G              A
 feed till the sun turns into wood

             G           A
 dousing an ancient torch

             G
 loiter the whole day through

       C                   D                 A
 and lose yourself in lines dissecting love

 E               D              A           G
 your name on my cast and my notes on your stay

 E          D       A            D
 offer me little but doting on a crime

 E                  D            A            G
 we've turned every stone and for all our inventions

 E                D              A             D         A
 in matters of love lost, we've no recourse at all

 A              G           A
 blind to the last cursed affair

                G         A
 pistols and countless eyes

                    G
 a trail of white blood betrays

          C             D                 A
 the reckless route your craft is running

                G                A
 feed till the sun turns into wood

           G             A
 dousing an ancient torch

                G                    C                 D
 loiter the whole day through and lose yourself in lines dissecting,

   C                    D            C                     D
 lose yourself in lines dissecting, lose yourself in lines dissecting..."
