The Quiet Things No One Ever Knows

Tom: G

G Em C D

Intro pt. 2 (The rest of the band enters):

G Em C D x2

Verse 1:
           G
We saw the western coast
           C
I saw the hospital
Em                           C
Nursed the shoreline like a wound
           G
Reports of lover's tryst
              C
Were neither clear nor descript
           Em
We kept it safe and slow
    C
The quiet things that no one ever knows

Chorus: x2
G
So keep the blood in your head
                          Em
And keep your feet on the ground

If today's the day it gets tired
                        C
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:
G
I contemplate the day we wed
                 C
Your friends are boring me to death
     Em                    C
Your veil is ruined in the rain
G
By then it's you I can do without
                C
There's nothing new to talk about
                Em
And though our kids are blessed
      C
Their parents let them shoulder all the blame


Chorus Again

Bridge 1:(quietly)
 G, Em, C, D x2
G           Em
I lie for, only you,
    C           D
And I lie well, hallelu x2

Bridge 2: (intense)
G           Em
I lie for, only you
    C           D
And I lie well, hallelu x2
