Gone For Good

The Shins


Tom: C

Intro: C C/G 
 
C C/G C C/G 
Untie me, I've said no vows 
C C/G C C/G 
The train is getting way too loud 
F 
I gotta leave here my girl 
C C/G C C/G 
Get on with my lonely life 
G 
Just leave the ring on the rail 
C C/G C C/G 
For the wheels to nullify 
 
 
 
C C/G C C/G 
Until this turn in my head 
C C/G C C/G 
I let you stay and you paid no rent 
G C C/G C C/G 
I spent twelve long months on the lam 
G  
That's enough sitting on the fence 
C C/G C C/G 
For the fear of breaking dams 
 
 
 
Am C 
I find a fatal flaw 
F  
In the logic of love 
C G 
And go out of my head 
Am C 
You love a sinking stone 
F 
That'll never elope 
C G 
So get used to the lonesome 
C G 
Girl, you must atone some 
C G F 
Don't leave me no phone number there 
 
Solo: C C/G X4

C C/G C C/G 
It took me all of a year 
C C/G C C/G 
To put the poison pill to your ear  
F C C/G C C/G 
But now I stand on honest ground, on honest ground 
G 
You want to fight for this love 
F 
But honey you cannot wrestle a dove 
C C/G C C/G 
So baby it's clear 
 
 
 
*Same as before Am C F C G* 
You want to jump and dance 
But you sat on your hands 
And lost your only chance 
 
Go back to your hometown 
Get your feet on the ground 
And stop floating around 
 
I find a fatal flaw  
In the logic of love 
And go out of my head 
 
You love a sinking stone 
That'll never elope 
So get used to used to the lonesome 
Girl, you must atone some 
Don't leave me no phone number there 
*End on C*
