Intro:
                Ebm
You used to be scared of the water
                   Gb
You're safe by the side of your father
                  Db
Your sense of the world lay
               Ab7
In your little home by the harbor
 
Verse 1:
                   Ebm
You've always felt small in the city
                    Gb
You think that last fall you were with me
                Db
And all of your old clothes
                 Ab7               Abm
Are still in the hall of my building
 
Chorus:
                Ebm
You never asked once
                    Gb
No, you never asked why
                        Db
If I was putting things off
                      Ab7                  Abm
If I was drinking too much of that red wine
                        Ebm
Oh, you'd wear yourself thin
                 Gb
And accept every sin
               Db
And if I glued myself shut
          Ab7
You would find your way in
 
Interlude: Stum Abm down-up four times, then Ab7
 
Verse 2:
               Ebm
We gambled our souls to the summer
                Gb
And rattled our bones to the thunder
                 Db
We watched every sunset
             Ab7               Abm
Until we got sick of each other
                  Ebm
You've always said fall was your season
                Gb
That everyone's here for a reason
                Db
I stare at your packed bags
                 Ab7                 Abm
And ask what the hell you were meaning
 
Chorus:
               Ebm
You never asked once
                    Gb
No, you never asked why
                        Db
If I was putting things off
                      Ab7                 Abm
If I was drinking too much of that red wine
                        Ebm
Oh, you'd wear yourself thin
                 Gb
And accept every sin
               Db
And if I glued myself shut
          Ab7             Abm
You would find your way in
 
Interlude: Ebm Gb Db Ab7 Abm

Bridge:
              Ebm
It only feels real after raining
                Gb
And hearts only heal after breaking
               Db
I stare at the tree line
               Ab7
And notice the leaves aren't changing
                  Ebm
And does the wind blow in Cape Elizabeth
             Gb
Constant and cold, how do we live with this?
           Db
Love was a deadline
                          Ab7
I'll spend the rest of my life xxxxing missing it
 
Interlude: Abm down-up -x4- Ab7
 
Chorus:
                Ebm
You never asked once
                    Gb
No, you never asked why
                        Db
If I was putting things off
                      Ab7                  Abm
If I was drinking too much of that red wine
                        Ebm
Oh, you'd wear yourself thin
                 Gb
And accept every sin
               Db
And if I glued myself shut
          Ab7             Abm       Ebm
You would find your way in
