[Intro 1]
[Am][C][F][F]
[G][G][G][G]
[F][C][Am][G]
[G][C][G][F][F]

[Verse 1]
[F]Night fal[C]ls
and [Am]towns become [G]circuit boards
We can [F]beat the sun
as [G]long as we keep [Am]moving
[F]From the air[C],
[Am]stadium lights stand [G]out like flares
And [G]all I know is that [C]you're sat [G]here
right [F]next to me
[F]We rearly see[C] war[Am]ning signs
in the [G]air we breathe
[F]Right now I feel [G]each and every [Am]fragment

[Pre-chorus 1]
[F]This paper trail leads rig[G]ht bac[Am]k to you
[G]You[F] say you need me
to step [G]out-[Am] side

[Chorus 1]
[Am]You spent the even[C]ing
un[F]packing books from boxes
You [G]passed me up
so as not to break a promise
[Am]Scattered pola[C]roids and spri[F]nkled words
around your collar
In the [G]long run,

[Verse 2]
you said you knew that this would happen
[F]Well this is som[C]ething new
but it [Am]turns out it was [G]borrowed too
[G]Why does every [C]let down [G]have to [F]be so thin?
[F]Rain explo[C]des at the mom[Am]ent
that the [G]cab door closed
I [F]feel the weight up[G]on your kiss am[Am]biguous

[Pre-chorus 2]
[F]You have to leave,
[G]I a[Am]ppreciate t[G]hat
[F]But I hate when conversatio[G]ns
[Am]slips out of our grasp

[Chorus 2]
[Am]You spent the even[C]ing
un[F]packing books from boxes
You [G]passed me up
so as not to break a promise
[Am]Scattered pola[C]roids and spri[F]nkled words
around your collar
In the [G]long run,

[Bridge 1]
you said you knew that this would happen
[Bm][D][A][A]
[Bm][D][A][A]
[Bm]Two bodies in moti[D]on
This is a [A]matter of fact
It wasn't [A]built to last
[Bm]Two bodies in moti[D]on
This is a [A]matter of fact
It wasn't [A]built to last

[Chorus 3]
[Am]You spent the even[C]ing
un[F]packing books from boxes
You [G]passed me up
so as not to break a promise
[Am]Scattered pola[C]roids and spri[F]nkled words
around your collar
In the [G]long run,

[Outro 1]
you said you knew that this would happen
[Am]The pounding rain [C]continue[F]d it's bleak fall
And [G]we decided just to write after all, after all
[F][C][Am][G]
[G][C][G][F][F]
[F]The pounding rai[C]n contin[Am]ued it's bleak fal[G]l
[F]We decided [G]just to write [Am]after all
