Okkervil River - Our Life Is Not A Movie Or Maybe (demo version)
Capo 2
Intro: D (strum once)
D G D A A Asus4
It’s just a bad movie, where there’s no crying
D G D A (keep strumming A lightly till G)
handing the key to me in this Red Lion,
G D G D A A Asus4 Asus4
where the lock that you locked in the suite says there’s no prying.
G D G D A A Asus4 Asus4
When the breath that you breathed in the street screams there’s no science.
G D G D A A Asus4
When you look how you looked then to me, then I cease lying and fall into silence.
G D G D Dsus2 A Asus4 Asus4
D G D A A Asus4 Asus4
It’s just a life story, so there’s no climax.
D G D A A Asus4 Asus4
No more new territory, so pull away the imax.
G D G D A A Asus4 Asus4
In the slot that you sliced through the scene there was no shyness.
G D G D A
In the plot that you passed through your teeth there was no pity.
G D G D A Asus4
No fade in: film begins on a kid in the big city.
G D G D A A Asus4 Asus4
And no cut to a costly parade (that’s for him only!).
G D G D A A Asus4 Asus4
No dissolve to a sliver of grey (that’s his new lady!)
G D G D A G D G D Dsus2 A Asus4x3
where she glows just like grain on the flickering pane of some great movie.
D G D A A Asus4 Asus4
It’s just a house burning, but it’s not haunted.
D G D A
It was your heart hurting, but not for long, kid.
G D G D A A Asus4 Asus4
In the socket you spin from with ease there is no sticking.
G D G D A A Asus4 Asus4
From the speakers your fake masterpiece is serenely dribbling.
G D G D A A Asus4 Asus4
When the air round your chair fills with heat, that’s the flames licking
G D G D A A Asus4 Asus4
beneath the clock on the clean mantelpiece. It’s got a calm clicking,
G D G D A Asus4 G D
like a pro at his editing suite takes two weeks stitching up some bad movie.
G D Dsus2 A Asus4
