For the riff parts (where it says F E D C G etc.) its easiest to play these all on the 
string and move down.


      F5                                       Bb5
My confusion corner commuters are cursing the cold away
    F5                                              Bb5
As December tries to dissemble the length of their working day
         F5                                              Bb5
And they bite their mitts off to show me transfers, deposit change
         F5                                              Bb5
 and I can't stop finding your face in their faces, all rearranged
     C5             C5
And angry like you never were;
      F5
and I ease us back into traffic
Bb5
Dusk comes on and I wonder
F5                          Bb5
Why I'm always remembering you, in civil twilight
F E D C (try running down the power chords starting on 13)

(repeat pattern for verse/chorus)
For the most part I think about golfing and constantly calculate
all the seconds left in the minutes, and so on, etcetera
Or recite the names of provinces and Hollywood actors;
Oh, Ontario! Oh, Jennifer Jason Leigh!

This part of the day bewilders me
Streets slow down and ice over,
Dusk comes on and I struggle to stop,
To stop to stop thinking of you,in civil twilight

(run down the power chords) F5 E5 D5 C5 G5
G5                       A5
Hey, every other hour I pass that house,
          Bb5                C5        C5
Where you told me that you had to go
G5                            Am5
I wonder if the landlord has fixed the crack,
       Bb5                     C5       C5
That I stared at, instead of staring back at

F5                                Bb5
you, My chance to say something seemed so breif, but it wasn't.
F5                          Bb5
Now I know I had plenty of time
              F5
Between the sunset and certified darkness
Bb5                             F5                             Bb5
Dusk comes on and I follow the exhaust from memory up to the end


            F5 E5 D5 C5 Bb5
The civil twilight
            F5 E5 D5 C5 Bb5
The civil twilight
            F5 E5 D5 C5 Bb5
The civil twilight
            F5 E5 D5 C5 F5
The civil twilight
