[Verse 1]

F Am Bb G C

All the unpaid bills, wrestling interest rates

C Bb F G C

While past due dates wait with their boutonnieres

F Am Bb G C

And the slumping bike, strangled with a lock

C Bb F G C

That we forgot the combination to

[Pre-Chorus 1]

F Am Bb G C

The old house drinks everything we hide

C Bb F G C

And hums sad songs that keep us up all night

[Chorus 1]

Gm/Bb F C

With the doorknobs loose

Gm/Bb F C

And the pipes that burst

Gm/Bb F C

With the fuses blown

Gm/Bb F C

And the taps reversed

[Verse 2]

F Am Bb G C

The calendar requests a meeting to discuss

C Bb F G C

The time we waste, when would be good for you?

F Am Bb G C

And the sidewalk cracks spell the way back home

C Bb F G C

In one un-interrupted palindrome

[Pre-Chorus 2]

F Am Bb G C

The old house keeps all of our receipts

C Bb F G C

In envelopes secured with rubber bands

[Chorus 2]

Gm/Bb F C

Oh, the blinking snow

Gm/Bb F C

And the dark dispersed

Gm/Bb F C

With a smeary moon

Gm/Bb F C

With our taps reversed
