The Quiet Things No One Ever Knows Acoustic

Tom: G
Intro: G Em7 C9 D

G
  We saw the western coast
Em7
  I saw the hospital
C9                                 D
  Nursed the shoreline like a wound
G
  Reports of lover's tryst
Em7
  We're neither clear nor descript
C9   
  We kept it safe and slow
      D
  The quiet things that no one ever knows


[Chorus: x2]
G
 So keep the blood in your head
                                Em7
 And keep your feet on the ground

 If today's the day it gets tired
                          Cadd7
 Today's the day we drop out

 Gave up my body and bed
                     D
 All for an empty hotel

 Wasting words on lower cases and capitals


[Verse 2:] (same as first)

I contemplate the day we wed

Your friends are boring me to death

Your veil is ruined in the rain

By then it's you I can do without

There's nothing new to talk about

And though our kids are blessed

Their parents let them shoulder all the blame


[Chorus: x2]

So keep the blood in your head

And keep your feet on the ground

If today's the day it gets tired

Today's the day we drop out

Gave up my body and bed

All for an empty hotel

Wasting words on lower cases and capitals


[Bridge: x2]
G Em7    C9       D
I lie for only you
G     Em7        Cadd7
 And I lie well...
       D
Hallelu...

[Chorus: x2 (words from bridge continued in the background)]

So keep the blood in your head

And keep your feet on the ground

Today's the day it gets tired

Today's the day we drop out

Gave up my body and bed

All for an empty hotel
