Your New Twin Sized Bed

By Death Cab for Cutie

D              A             G                             D, A, G
You look so defeated lying there in your new twin size bed
D              A           G                             D, A, G
With a single pillow underneath your single head
D             A                    G                                       D, A, G
   I guess you decided that that old queen was more space than you would need
D              A                 G                                        D, A, G
Now it's in the alley behind your apartment with a sign that says it's free
      Em                 G                  D, A, G
And I hope you have more luck with this than me

D              A           G                D, A, G
You used to think that someone would come along.
D              A           G                D, A, G
And lay beside you in a space that they belong.
D              A                 G                            D, A, G
But the other side of the mattress and box springs stayed like new.
   D              A                 G               D, A, G
'n what's the point of holding onto what never gets used?


Em                      G               D, A, G
Other than a sick desire for self-abuse.


D               G                  Bm           D
And I try not to worry, but you've got me terrified
D                               G
It's like your in some kind of hurry
           Em           G            D, A, G
To say goodbye, say goodbye, say goodbye


D              A            G                             D, A, G
You look so defeated lying there in your new twin size bed
D              A            G                           D
You look so defeated lying there in your new twin size bed
