Intro
[Bb] [F] [Eb] [Bb] [F] [Eb]

[Bb]                   [F]    [Eb]  
All night restaurant, North Kildonan
[Bb]      [F]                 [Eb]
Luke warm coffee tastes like soap.
[Bb]         [F]              [Eb]
I trace you outline in spilled sugar,
[Bb]    [F]              [Eb]
Killing time and killing hope.
[Gm]            [F]                 [Eb]    [F]
This brand new strip mall chews on farmland,
[Gm]  [F]                 [Eb] [F]
as we fish for someone to blame.
[Bb]    [F]              [Eb]
But we communicate in questions,
[Bb]         [F]              [Eb]
And all our answers sound the same.
[Bb]    [F]              [Eb]
Under sputtering flourescents,
[Bb]    [F]         [Eb]
After re-fills are re-filled.
[Bb]    [F]           [Eb]
Negotiations at a stand-still,
[Bb]       [F]            [Eb]
Spoon and rolling saucer stilled.
[Gm]   [F]              [Eb]  [F]
If you ask how I got so bitter,
[Gm]     [F]           [Eb] [F]
I'll ask how you got so vain.
[Bb]        [F]             [Eb]
And all our questions blur together.
[Bb]         [F]             [Eb]  
The answers always sound the same.
[Bb]      [F]         [Eb]
We can't look at one another.
[Bb]         [F]              [Eb]
I'll say something thoughtful soon,
[Bb]        [F]            [Eb]
But I can't listen to the quiet,
[Bb] [F]               [Eb]
so I hum this mindless tune 
[Gm]          [F]               [Eb]    [F]
I stole from some dumb country rockstar.
[Gm]    [F]           [Eb] [F]
I don't even know his name.
[Bb]          [F]           [Eb]
It's like my stupid little questions:
[Bb]         [F]             [Eb] [F]
The answers always sound the same.

[Bb] [F] [Eb] [Bb] [F] [Eb]

[Gm]    [F]                [Eb] [F]
Tell me why I have to miss you, so.
[Gm]    [F]             [Eb] [F]
Tell me why we sound so lame.

[F] [F] [F]

[Bb]          [F]        [Eb]
Why we communicate in questions 
[Bb]          [F]             [Eb]
and all our answers sound the same.
