Books From Boxes

[Intro]

Bb5

[Verse 1]
Bb5           F5
   Night falls
    D5              C5
And towns become circuit boards
       Bb5             C5                D5
We can beat the sun as long as we keep moving
Bb5            F5
   From the air
D5                      C5
Stadium lights stand out  like flares
    C/E                      F5    C/E            Bb5
And all I know is that you're  sat here right next   to me
Bb5             F5
   We rarely see
D5                   C5
Warning signs in the air we breathe
Bb5                  C5              D5
Right now I feel each  and every fragment

[Pre-Chorus]
Bb                      C      Dm
  This paper trail leads right back to you..
.
C Bb                       C       Dm
    You say you need me to step outside

[Chorus]
Dm              F         Bb
  You spent the evening unpacking books from boxes
    C
You passed me up so as not to break a promise
Dm            F           Bb
  Scattered polaroids and sprinkled words around your
collar
           C
In the long run,
                                        Bb5
you said you knew that this would happen

[Verse 2]
            F5
This is something new
       D5               C5
But it turns out it was borrowed, too
C/E                F5   C/E       Bb5         Bb5
"Why does every letdown have to be   so thin?"
       F5
Rain explodes
       D5                 C5
At the moment that the cab  door closed
  Bb5                 C5
I feel the weight upon  your kiss;
    D5
ambiguous

[Pre-Chorus]
Bb                   C    Dm
  You have to leave. I appreciate that
C
Bb                        C         Dm
  But I hate when conversation slips  out of our grasp

[Chorus]
Dm              F         Bb
  You spent the evening unpacking books from boxes
    C
You passed me up so as not to break a promise
Dm            F           Bb
  Scattered polaroids and sprinkled words around your
collar
           C
In the long run,
you said you knew that this would happen

[Bridge]
Em G Dsus2 Dsus4 D
Em G Dsus2 Dsus4 D
Em              G
  Two bodies in motion
          Dsus2
This is a matter of fact
          Dsus4    D
It wasn't built to last
Em              G
  Two bodies in motion
          Dsus2
This is a matter of fact
          Dsus4    D
It wasn't built to last

[Chorus]
Dm              F         Bb
  You spent the evening unpacking books from boxes
    C
You passed me up so as not to break a promise
Dm            F           Bb
  Scattered polaroids and sprinkled words around your
collar
           C
In the long run,
you said you knew that this would happen
Dm                 F   Bb
  The pounding rain continued it's bleak fall
    C
And we decided just to write after all
After all

[Outro]
Bb5 F5 D5 C5
C/E F5 C/E Bb5
Bb5             F5      D5                C5
   The pounding rain continued it's bleak fall
    Bb5        C5            Dmadd9
And we decided just to write after all
