Am
You used to be scared of the water
                   C
You're safe by the side of your father
                  G
Your sense of the world lay
               D7
In your little home by the harbor

[Verse 1]
(Play D7 without muting; strum D7sus4 once and let it ring)
                   Am
You've always felt small in the city
                    C
You think that last fall you were with me
                G
And all of your old clothes
                 D7               D7sus4
Are still in the hall of my building

[Chorus]
(Don't mute strings when playing D7)
                Am
You never asked once
                    C
No, you never asked why
                        G
If I was putting things off
                      D7                  D7sus4
If I was drinking too much of that red wine
                        Am
Oh, you'd wear yourself thin
                 C
And accept every sin
               G
And if I glued myself shut
          D7
You would find your way in

(Short Interlude: Strum D7sus4 down-up four times, then D7 once)

[Verse 2]
               Am
We gambled our souls to the summer
                C
And rattled our bones to the thunder
                 G
We watched every sunset
             D7               D7sus4
Until we got sick of each other
                  Am
You've always said fall was your season
                C
That everyone's here for a reason
                G
I stare at your packed bags
                 D7                 D7sus4
And ask what the hell you were meaning

[Chorus]
               Am
You never asked once
                    C
No, you never asked why
                        G
If I was putting things off
                      D7                 D7sus4
If I was drinking too much of that red wine
                        Am
Oh, you'd wear yourself thin
                 C
And accept every sin
               G
And if I glued myself shut
          D7             D7sus4
You would find your way in

[Interlude]
Play normal strumming pattern while humming;
Am - C - G - D7 - D7sus4
(On the second set, strum D7 down-up four times, then D7sus4 down-up four times, then D7 once)

[Bridge]
(Play each chord once and let it ring; Start strumming without muting on last D7)
              Am
It only feels real after raining
                C
And hearts only heal after breaking
               G
I stare at the tree line
               D7
And notice the leaves aren't changing
                  Am
And does the wind blow in Cape Elizabeth
             C
Constant and cold, how do we live with this?
           G
Love was a deadline
                          D7
I'll spend the rest of my life fucking missing it

(Play D7sus4 down-up four times while increasing volume; strum D7 once)

[Chorus]
(Play last Am once)
                Am
You never asked once
                    C
No, you never asked why
                        G
If I was putting things off
                      D7                  D7sus4
If I was drinking too much of that red wine
                        Am
Oh, you'd wear yourself thin
                 C
And accept every sin
               G
And if I glued myself shut
          D7             D7sus4       Am
You would find your way in
