Verse 1
(Cadd9 = x32033)
(Dsus2 = xx0230)
(Am7 = x02010)
[G]the [Cadd9]sidewalk [G]bends where your house ends
like [Cadd9]the [G]neighborhood is on its knees
[Cadd9]you're [G]surrounded by a chain-link fence
that [Cadd9]keeps me out but lets me see
[G]well i[Cadd9] come [G]by most every night
[G]the [Cadd9]shutters [G]pounding in the breeze
[G]a [Cadd9]clothesline [G]strung like paper kites
[G]that [Cadd9]blow my words right back at me
[G]back at me
[Am7]but someday when my heart exhales
i'll tell you everything
[Dsus2]these [C]sweet words spilling all about us
[Am7]i'll say please please be with me
and i'll breath so easily
[Dsus2]but instead i'm turning blue
i look at you
and[G] keep my stupid mouth shut
the hall light streams out through the screens
and the shadows capture me in webs
just tangled up in what i've seen
and every word i have not said
i have not said
cuz the sidewalk bends where your house ends
like the neighborhood is on its knees
Corrections welcome!
