One of the best songs by The Weakerthans. I'm suprised it hasn't been tabbed yet. It's amazing song with 2 guitars, but still great with only 1. I worked hard on this and I it's pretty accurate, so please rate it. :) ____________________________________________________________________________ A5 E5 I count to three and grin. F#5 You smile and let me in. D5 A5 We sit and watch the wall you painted purple. E5 Speech will spill on space. F#5 Our little cups of grace. D5 F#5 But pauses rattle on about the way that you cut the snow-fence, G#5 braved the blood, A5 F#5 G#5 A5 the metal of those hearts that you always end up pressing your tongue to. F#5 G#5 A5 How your body still remembers things you told it to forget. F#5 G#5 A5 How those furious affections followed you.

E5 We're talented and bright. F#5 We're lonely and uptight. D5 We've found some lovely ways to disappoint, F#5 G#5 A5 but the airport's always almost empty this time of the year, F#5 G#5 A5 so let's go play on a baggage carousel. F#5 G#5 A5 Set our watches forward like we're just arriving here F#5 G#5 A5 from a past we left in a place we knew too well. Knew too well. [REPEAT BREAK] Knew too well.

Let me scrub that brackish line that you got D5 when something rose and then receded. Hold on. [OUTRO]: A5 E5 F#5 C5 A5
