Song by Ben Gibbard on his debut solo album. No capo. My first tab too, so let's hope this goes well.
G C G
Oh, woe why do you stay
Em C G
And make me feel this awful way?
C F C
You filled my heart with your solemn tune
G C G
And an endless burning bluish hue
D Em C
It's been a basement of a year
G C G
And all I want's for you to disappear
G C G
But oh, woe you caught my eye
Em C G
And I thought that I'd give you a try
C F C
But you're nothing like the way you look
G C G
In all those famous songs and books
D Em C
And now I see how you snuff the light
G C G
And kill the ones who hold you inside
Em Bm C G
And I can feel you grow in me like a forest of green
Em C
And it's so confounding trying to cut you down
G D
Trying to find a place to begin
Solo: G C G...
G C G
Oh, woe please hear this plea
Em C G
To walk away and leave me be
C F C
I've weathered more than I can take
G C G
Of your ever-present lonely ache
D Em C
It's been a basement of a year
G C G
And all I want's for you to disappear
D Em C
It's been a basement of a year
G C Em
And all I want's for you to disappear
G C G
And all I want's for you to disappear.
