[Intro]
| A D6/A | Dadd9/F# A/E | Dsus2/B | Esus4 E |
[Verse 1]
A A/C# D Bm7 Esus4 E
We talked up all night and still came to no conclusion
A A/C# D Bm7 Esus4 E
We started a fight that ended in silent confusion
Bm7 A/C#
And as we sat stuck you could hear the trash truck
D Esus4 E
Making its way through the neighborhood
Bm7 A/C#
Picking up the thrown out different from house to house
D Esus4 E
We get to decide what we think is no good
[Verse 2]
A A/C# D Bm7 Esus4 E
We're sculpted from youth, the chipping away makes me weary
A A/C# D Bm7 Esus4 E
And as for the truth it seems like we just pick a theory
Bm7 A/C#
The one that justifies our daily lives
D Esus4 E
And backs us with quiver and arrows
Bm7 A/C#
To protect openings cause when the warring begins
D Esus4 E
How quickly the wide open narrows
[Chorus]
A A/C# D E/G# E Asus4 A
Into the smallness of our deconstruction of love
D E
We thought it was changing, but it never was
A D6/A Dadd9/F# A/E Dsus2/B Esus4 E (like intro)
It's just the same as it ever was
[Verse 3]
A A/C# D Bm7 Esus4 E
A family of foxes came to my yard and dug in
A A/C# D Bm7 Esus4 E
So I looked in a book to see what this could possibly mean
Bm7 A/C#
Yeah, 'cos there's fate in the breeze, signs in the trees,
D Esus4 E
and possible tragic events
Bm7 A/C#
when forces collide, with the damage strewn wide
D Esus4 E
and holes blasted straight through the fence.
[Verse 4]
A A/C# D Bm7 Esus4 E
Oh the sky starts to crash, the rain on the roof starts to drumming
(into the small - ness of) (our)
A A/C# D Bm7 Esus4 E
and laid out like cash, your take on my list of shortcomings
(de - con - struc - tion of)
Bm7 A/C#
and now the show starts to close, I know how this goes
D Esus4 E
the plot a predicatable showing
Bm7 A/C#
and though it seems grand, we're just one speck of sand
D Esus4 E
and back to the hourglass we're going
[Chorus]
A A/C# D E/G# E Asus4 A
Back to the small - ness of our deconstruction of love
(into the smallness of our deconstruction)
D E
We thought it was changing, but it never was
(of love)
A A/C# D E/G# E Asus4 A
We're still in the small - ness of our deconstruction of love
(into the smallness of our deconstruction)
N.C. D E
We thought it was changing, but it never was
E/G# E Asus4 A E/A D/A A D Esus4 E
our deconstruction of love
E/G# E Asus4 A E/A D/A A D Esus4 E
our deconstruction of love
