The Weakerthans – Civil Twilight (Guitar)

      E                                        A
My confusion corner commuters are cursing the cold away

     E                                              A
As December tries to dissemble the length of their working day

          E                                            A
And they bite their mitts off to show me transfers, deposit change

       E                                                A
And I can't stop finding your face in their faces, all rearranged

     B             B/C
And angry like you never were

       E
And I ease us back into traffic

A
Dusk comes on and I wonder

E                           A
Why I'm always remembering you

          E5     E/Eb  C#5  B5
At civil twilight

         E                                              A
For the most part I think about golfing and constantly calculate

         E                                         A
All the seconds left in the minutes, and so on, etcetera

      E                                         A
Or recite the names of provinces and Hollywood actors;

      E                               A
Oh, Ontario, oh, Jennifer Jason Leigh

B                B/C
This part of the day bewilders me

E
Streets slow down and ice over,

A
Dusk comes on and I struggle

    E                                  A
To stop, to stop, to stop thinking of you

          E5     E/Eb  C#5  B5
At civil twilight

F#m                     G#m
Hey, every other hour I pass that house,

           A                B     B/C
Where you told me that you had to go

F#m                           G#m
I wonder if the landlord has fixed the crack,

        A                     B      B/C
That I stared at, instead of staring back 

   E
At you. My chance to say something

A
Seemed so brief but it wasn't

E                           A
Now I know I had plenty of time

             E 
Between the sunset and certified darkness

A
Dusk comes on and I follow

       E                           A
The exhaust from memory up to the end

          E5     E/Eb  C#5  B5  A
At civil twilight

          E5     E/Eb  C#5  B5  A
At civil twilight

          E5     E/Eb  C#5  B5  A
At civil twilight

          E5     E/Eb  C#5  B5   E
At civil twilight
