Capo 6th fret
D7sus4 xx0213
[Intro]
(Strum without muting the strings; Strum D7 once and let it ring)
Am
You used to be scared of the water
C
You're safe by the side of your father
G
Your sense of the world lay
D7
In your little home by the harbor
[Verse 1]
(Play D7 without muting; strum D7sus4 once and let it ring)
Am
You've always felt small in the city
C
You think that last fall you were with me
G
And all of your old clothes
D7 D7sus4
Are still in the hall of my building
[Chorus]
(Don't mute strings when playing D7)
Am
You never asked once
C
No, you never asked why
G
If I was putting things off
D7 D7sus4
If I was drinking too much of that red wine
Am
Oh, you'd wear yourself thin
C
And accept every sin
G
And if I glued myself shut
D7
You would find your way in
(Short Interlude: Strum D7sus4 down-up four times, then D7 once)
[Verse 2]
Am
We gambled our souls to the summer
C
And rattled our bones to the thunder
G
We watched every sunset
D7 D7sus4
Until we got sick of each other
Am
You've always said fall was your season
C
That everyone's here for a reason
G
I stare at your packed bags
D7 D7sus4
And ask what the hell you were meaning
[Chorus]
Am
You never asked once
C
No, you never asked why
G
If I was putting things off
D7 D7sus4
If I was drinking too much of that red wine
Am
Oh, you'd wear yourself thin
C
And accept every sin
G
And if I glued myself shut
D7 D7sus4
You would find your way in
[Interlude]
Play normal strumming pattern while humming;
Am - C - G - D7 - D7sus4
(On the second set, strum D7 down-up four times, then D7sus4 down-up four times, then D7 once)
[Bridge]
(Play each chord once and let it ring; Start strumming without muting on last D7)
Am
It only feels real after raining
C
And hearts only heal after breaking
G
I stare at the tree line
D7
And notice the leaves aren't changing
Am
And does the wind blow in Cape Elizabeth
C
Constant and cold, how do we live with this?
G
Love was a deadline
D7
I'll spend the rest of my life fucking missing it
(Play D7sus4 down-up four times while increasing volume; strum D7 once)
[Chorus]
(Play last Am once)
Am
You never asked once
C
No, you never asked why
G
If I was putting things off
D7 D7sus4
If I was drinking too much of that red wine
Am
Oh, you'd wear yourself thin
C
And accept every sin
G
And if I glued myself shut
D7 D7sus4 Am
You would find your way in

Legit don't know if it's a chord that exists can't find it anywhere but I changed the Dm for this: same as the D7 but you slide your finger to 3rd fret instead of the 2nd on the first string (e) sounds more like the actual song but otherwise very good chords thanks!!

the Am doesn't sound quite right, but I've tried a few things and I can't figure out how to fix this
