The incident in Amherst has now left me feeling drained
G                C                  B          Cmaj7
Instead of going nowhere we're just going down again

G  C x2

[Verse 2]
G                C                   G             C
We could fill the swimming pools with all tomorrow's tears
G                 C               B                Cmaj7
Drain them all in winter and then watch the cracks appear

[Verse 3]
G                C                 G            C
It wasn't in the books we read; it wasn't in the films
G          C                      B           Cmaj7
It wasn't anywhere we looked, but I am looking still

[Verse 4]
G              C               G               C
Now we're just anesthetized as we watch days go by
G                C              B             Cmaj7
Annie cuts holes in herself to watch her body cry

[Verse 5]
G               C                G                 C
So pick me up tomorrow and I'll sleep some while you drive
G                C                 B             Cmaj7
Think about some other place, then wake when we arrive

[Outro]

   We arrive...

   We arrive...
G  C  B  Cmaj7
          We arrive...
G  C
   We arrive...

   We arrive...
