Tuning: Standard - EADGBe
Intro: C - Em (find yourself a nice picking pattern)
CSilver couplets are underneath the branches
EmOf a wilted maple, raking up the leaves
FTrying find my head, must’ve been out here
Buried it with the memories of mom and dad
CSlipped through one of my hands, never got too bad
EmBut this one’s worse
Still remember jumping iFn the leaves
We were merely children, not anything more
Just learned to drink away our pain
CAnd it’s a shame, heard you rode in the back seat
EmAll the way to long beach
Remember the days you were Fdriving
You and I were in a mess
I guess we all fall with our sins, we never wanted
CFind some solace, at least a little piece of mind
EmI know I’m wasting away this time
If you Ffocus hard enough on the smoke, from my cigarette
I think that I see heaven
EmI can’t blame you for the Amthings that occurred
Cause they’re Call in my head
I know that’s wrong, I know thats wrGong now
FAnd I’m sorry, at least that’s what I Cthink I say
Or I’d hoped Gyou’d say
CSilver couplets are underneath the branches   ---> From here on out go for full chords rather than picking
EmOf wilted maples, raking up the leaves
FTrying to find my head, must’ve been here
Buried with the memories
CSlipped through my hands, I know Emthose wise words
Oh I know, I know
FWe all fall down, by tumbling down
Can’t seem to catch your fall
CAnd it’s a shame
Heard you rode in the back seat 
EmAll the way, remember the days you were Fdriving
But you and I were in a mess
I guess we all fall with our sins, we never wanted
CFind some solace, at least a little piece of mind
EmI know I’m wasting away this time
FIf you focus hard enough on the smoke from my cigarette
I think that I see heaven
EmI can’t blame you for the Amthings that occurred

Silver Couplets - The Districts

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tuning: Standard - EADGBe

Intro: C - Em (find yourself a nice picking pattern)

Silver couplets are underneath the branches

Of a wilted maple, raking up the leaves

Trying find my head, must’ve been out here

Buried it with the memories of mom and dad

Slipped through one of my hands, never got too bad

But this one’s worse

Still remember jumping in the leaves

We were merely children, not anything more

Just learned to drink away our pain

And it’s a shame, heard you rode in the back seat

All the way to long beach

Remember the days you were driving

You and I were in a mess

I guess we all fall with our sins, we never wanted

Find some solace, at least a little piece of mind

I know I’m wasting away this time

If you focus hard enough on the smoke, from my cigarette

I think that I see heaven

Em Am

I can’t blame you for the things that occurred

Cause they’re all in my head

I know that’s wrong, I know thats wrong now

F C

And I’m sorry, at least that’s what I think I say

Or I’d hoped you’d say

Silver couplets are underneath the branches ---> From here on out go for full chords rather than picking

Of wilted maples, raking up the leaves

Trying to find my head, must’ve been here

Buried with the memories

C Em

Slipped through my hands, I know those wise words

Oh I know, I know

We all fall down, by tumbling down

Can’t seem to catch your fall

And it’s a shame

Heard you rode in the back seat

Em F

All the way, remember the days you were driving

But you and I were in a mess

I guess we all fall with our sins, we never wanted

Find some solace, at least a little piece of mind

I know I’m wasting away this time

If you focus hard enough on the smoke from my cigarette

I think that I see heaven

Em Am

I can’t blame you for the things that occurred

Cause they’re all in my head

I know that’s wrong, I know thats wrong now

F C

And I’m sorry, at least that’s what I think I say

Or I’d hoped you’d say

Em Am

I can’t blame you for the things that occurred

Cause they’re all in my head

I know that’s wrong, I know thats wrong now

F C

And I’m sorry, at least that’s what I think I say

Or I’d hoped you’d say

F C

And I’m sorry, at least that’s what I think I say

Or I’d hoped you’d say

And I’m sorry, at least that’s what I think I say

Or I’d hoped you’d say
