[Verse]
C                          F                               Am
   On a crowded stretch of highway, we're counting all the cars
                    G                                   C
The red ones vs the green ones by the headlights in the dark
                 F                               Am
We pull into the driveway, I see fragments of my heart
                             G                                C
Through the warm glow of the windows, spilling light onto the lawn
         F                      Am  G  C
I'm so aware of your silhouette
                    F                     Am  G  C
The shape of your face and the shadow cast


[Verse]
                         F                              Am
All the fingers hanging lifeless, fists balled up in my gloves
                  G                                    C
It's another mild winter, but I still feel them going numb
                 F
Jill smiles as I walk in
                        Am
There's a quiet sort of hum
                     G
Finally home after a long year
                    C
The house radiating love
        F                     Am  G  C
I'm so aware of your bassinet
            F                     Am  G
You're half awake being carried in


[Chorus]
            C             F
I'm feeling worn, feeling threadbare
          Am           G
Like the sleeves of my sweater
            C          F                   Am  G
I watch the light grow thinner and disappear


[Verse]
C                    F                        Am
  When I think of December, I always think of Mae
                      G                               C
And her house on Erdenheim where everyone I love felt safe
                      F
I drive past it every Christmas
                      Am
I'm gonna buy it some day
               G
And anyone who needs to could always stay


[Chorus]
            C             F
I'm feeling worn, feeling threadbare
          Am           G
Like the sleeves of my sweater
            C          F                   Am  G
I watch the light grow thinner and disappear
            C             F
I'm feeling worn, feeling threadbare
         Am            G
Like the sleeves of my sweater
        C          F                     Am  G
And the days only get longer from here
