Photobooth

By Death Cab for Cutie

Key of G

G                      Em
   I remember when the days were long,
        D                               C
And the nights when the living room was on the lawn
G                           Em
   Constant quarreling, the childish fits
        D                        C
and our clothes in a pile on the ottoman
G                      Em
   All the slander and double-speak
          D                            C
Were only foolish attempts to show you did not mean
G                   Em
   Anything but the blatant proof
         D                         C
was your lips touching mine in the photobooth

Am            C
   And as the summer's ending,
Em          D                 C
   The cool air will put your hard heart away
Am             C
   You were so condescending
Em  D             C
      And this is all that's left
Em          D        C
   Scraping paper to document
Em               D         C                             G
   I've packed a change of clothes and it's time to move on

G Em D C
G Em D C

G                       Em
   Cup your mouth to compress the sound,
       D                            C
Skinny dipping with the kids from a nearby town
G                        Em
   And everything that I said was true,
       D                         C
As the flashes blinded us in the photobooth
G                                     Em
   Well, I lost track, and then those words were said
             D                           C
You took the wheel and you steered us in to my bed
G                     Em
   Soon we woke and I walked you home,
           D                        C
And it was pretty clear that it was hardly love

Am            C
   And as the summer's ending,
Em          D                 C
   The cool air will put your hard heart away
Am             C
   You were so condescending
Em  D             C
      And this is all that's left
Em          D        C
   Scraping paper to document
Em               D         C                             G
   I've packed a change of clothes and it's time to move on

Am            C
   And as the summer's ending,
Em          D                 C
   The cool air will rush your hard heart away
Am             C
   You were so condescending
Em        D       C
   As the alcohol drained the days
Am            C
   And as the summer's ending,
Em          D                  C
   The cool air will rush your hard heart away
Am             C
   You were so condescending
Em  D             C
      And this is all that's left
Em           D              C
   The empty bottles, spent cigarettes
Em           D         C                                G
   So pack a change of clothes 'cause it's time to move on
