Deer Tick - Smith Hill

G

D G
elbows on the window sill
D A
my head against the pane
F# G
you’ve seen so many grow and die
D A
but you forgot most of their names

so i fire that arrow into the great big sky
and i hope that it never comes down
unless you’re coming with it
it’s better with you around

i could drink myself to death tonight
or i could stand and give a toast
to those who made it out alive
it’s you i’ll miss the most

but tonight i’ll see my sweetheart
i’ve got a fifty dollar bill
but somewhere in her weak heart
she knows i never will

F# G D
oh love , it’s hard to hide it
F# G D
true love , it’s hard to find it
F# G D
though i was once beside it
F# G D
i’ve fallen far behind it

D G
from a tiny room up on smith hill
D A
it’s easy to disappear
F# G
it’s easier to run off hiding
D A
then say “i don’t want you here”
D G
i can’t stand to face the facts
D A
it’d only leave you hurt
F# G
i don’t care much for what you have to say
D A
but i’d like to know what you heard

oh love , it’s hard to hide it
true love , it’s hard to fid it
though i once was beside it
i’ve fallen far behind it

G D D7
it’s a long way free
G D
you can’t tread on me
C G
and in the morning when you’re crying
A
you’ll see
