Death Cab for Cutie - Lightness

this is based on the acoustic tab for lightness that’s already on the site ( which
i would highly recommend you check out ) .
it’s just a chorded version for those of us not adept at picking and playing .

standard tuning , no capo

verse 1

F G Am
there’s a tear in the fabric of your favorite dress

C
and i’m sneaking glances .

F G
looking for the patterns in static

Am
they start to make sense

C
the longer i’m at it .

chorus

F G
ivory lines lead

Am C
oh wha – ho , oh wha – ho

interlude

Em F C x2

verse 2

F G Am
your heart is a river that flows from your chest

C
through every organ .

F G
your brain is the dam

Am
and i Am the fish

C
who can’t reach the core .

chorus

F G
ivory lines lead

Am C
oh wha – ho , oh wha – ho

Em F C
oh , instincts are misleading

Em F C
you shouldn’t think what you’re feeling

Em F
they don’t tell you what

C
you know you should want

ivory lines lead

Am C
oh wha – ho , oh wha – ho

F G
ivory lines lead

Am C
oh wha – ho , oh wha – ho

oh , instincts are misleading

they don’t tell you what

C
you know you should want
