Death Cab For Cutie "Underneath The Sycamore"

works great on acoustic. just a really simple way to play it.

F          Am             C
Lying in a field of glass
C
Underneath the overpass
F              Am                    C
Mangled in the shards of a mental frame
C
Woken from a dream by my own name
F                 Am           C
Well I was such a wretched man
C
Searching everywhere for a homeland
F                Am           C
Now we are under the same sun
C
Feel it through the leaves, let it heal us

F
We are the same
C          G
We are both sane 
A5            G5       F
Underneath the sycamore
F
We are the same
C          G
We are both sane 
A5            G5       F
Underneath the sycamore

F            Am                    C
We were both broken in our own ways
C
Sifting through the rubble for the wrong things
F                   Am            C
I know you've got a vengeful heart
C
I cannot be stopped soon as I start
F                     Am            C
But you have seen your darkest rooms
C
I have slept in makeshift tombs
F               Am             C 
This is where we find our peace
C
This is where we are released

F
We are the same
C          G
We are both sane 
A5            G5       F
Underneath the sycamore
F
We are the same
C          G
We are both sane 
A5            G5       F
Underneath the sycamore
