CAPO: 5th Fret
INTRO:        C    F  
Our house has Cfallen
But the clothesline still Fstands
The ghost of your Cdress
Got hung out aGgainF  
Maybe I'm a ghost Ctoo
That couldn't leave Ftown
Me and this CclotheslineG  
We still hang aFround
CHORUS:
And now CI'm so dryF  
As everything passes Cby
But I won't Emleave on the Am7wind
I'll stay in the Gsun and Cfade on the Fline
N.C.                C  
They say everything changes
But the grave's always Fbeen here
From under the Ccovers
That turned everyGwhereF  
If I knew Cthen
Oh, what I know Fnow
I'd-a carried your CcoloursG  
Far away from this Ftown

And now I'm, CI'm so dryF

But I won't Emleave on the Am7wind
I'll stay in the Gsun and Cfade on the FlineG  Am7

If you were Fhere right now
You'd Cfind a way to help me downG  Am7  
If you were Fhere right now
You'd Dm7pull me down to the groundC  F  
N.C.           C  
I wish I could visit
A graveyard for Fnoise
The sound of the Ctrains
And girls chasing GboysF  
I'd walk by each Cheadstone
And leave flowers beFside
I'd wanna [bring] CSookieG  
Her sweet voice here Flies
CHORUS:
And now I'm, CI'm so dryF  
As everything passes Cby
But I won't Emleave on the Am7wind
I'll stay in the Gsun and Cfade on the Fline

Our house has fallen
But the clothesline still stands

CAPO: 5th Fret

C F

INTRO:

Our house has fallen

But the clothesline still stands

The ghost of your dress

G F

Got hung out again

Maybe I'm a ghost too

That couldn't leave town

C G

Me and this clothesline

We still hang around

CHORUS:

C F

And now I'm so dry

As everything passes by

Em Am7

But I won't leave on the wind

G C F

I'll stay in the sun and fade on the line

N.C.

They say everything changes

But the grave's always been here

From under the covers

G F

That turned everywhere

If I knew then

Oh, what I know now

C G

I'd-a carried your colours

Far away from this town

CHORUS:

C F

And now I'm, I'm so dry

As everything passes by

Em Am7

But I won't leave on the wind

G C F G Am7

I'll stay in the sun and fade on the line

BRIDGE:

If you were here right now

C G Am7

You'd find a way to help me down

If you were here right now

Dm7 C F

You'd pull me down to the ground

N.C.

I wish I could visit

A graveyard for noise

The sound of the trains

G F

And girls chasing boys

I'd walk by each headstone

And leave flowers beside

C G

I'd wanna [bring] Sookie

Her sweet voice here lies

CHORUS:

C F

And now I'm, I'm so dry

As everything passes by

Em Am7

But I won't leave on the wind

G C F

I'll stay in the sun and fade on the line

CHORUS:

C F

And now I'm, I'm so dry

As everything passes by

Em Am7

But I won't leave on the wind

G C F

I'll stay in the sun and fade on the line

OUTRO:

N.C.

Our house has fallen

But the clothesline still stands
