Verse 1
AmE7C
The time has come for colds and overcoats.
F
We're quiet on the ride,
G7Am
we're all just waiting to get home.
E7C
Another week away, my greatest fear.
F
I need the smell of summer,
G7Am
I need its noises in my ears.
E7
If looks could really kill,
C
then my profession would be staring.
F
Please know we do this cause we G7care
Am
and not for the thrill.
E7
Collect calls to home
C
to tell them that I realize
FG7
that everyone who lives will someday die
Am ~ ~
and die alone.

I wrote more postcards than hooks.

I read more maps than books.

Every minute is a mile.
C
I've never felt so hollow.
FG7
I'm an old abandoned church with broken pews
Am
and empty aisles.
E7
My secrets for a buck.
C
Watch me as I cut myself wide open
FG7
on this stage. Yes, I am paid
AmE7
to spill my guts. I won't see home till spring.
C
Oh, I would kill for the Atlantic,
FG7
but I am paid to make girls panic
Am
while I sing.

Bridge
CAm
And the coastline is quiet.
E7
While we're quietly losing control.
And we're silent but sure
G7

that will wash out my memories of her.

"The harpoon is loaded. The cage is lowered.

The water is red."
