Weird Goodbyes

Intro
C Em G D

Hook
C                       Em
Memorize the bathwater, memorize the air
G                                D
There'll come a time I'll wanna know when I was here
C                        Em
Names on the doorframes, inches and ages
G                         D
Handprints in concrete at the softest stages
C            Em         G     D
I don't know why I don't try harder
C              G          D
I feel like throwin' towels into water

Verse
C                       G/B
Get it down to nothin', everything that matters
D/A
Fever flashes, eyelashes and traffic patterns
C                   Em
Humidity, history, chemistry and panic
G                          D
Swimsuits in the windows of electric minivans
C            Em         G     D
I don't know why I don't try harder
C                 Em           G         D
I've been goin' down some, some strange water

Pre-chorus
             C                    Em
Move forward now, there's nothin' to do
           G                 D
Can't turn around, I can't follow you
C                         G/B
Your coat's in my car, I guess you forgot
D/A
It's crazy, the things we let go of

Chorus
           C                  G/B
It finally hits me, a mile's drive
           D/A
The sky is leaking, the windshield's crying
            C                   G/B
I'm feelin' sacred, my soul is stripped
           D/A
Radio's painful, the words are clipped
             C                  G/B
The grief it gets me, the weird goodbyes
           D/A
My car is creepin', I think it's dyin'
            C              G/B
I'm pullin' over until it heals
           D/A
I'm on a shoulder of lemon fields

Bridge
Am Em G D

Am             Em
What was I even leavin' for?
G            D
I keep goin' back and forth
Am              Em
I think now I'm about to see
G               D     D
Didn't know how sad it'd be

Hook
C                       Em
Memorize the bathwater, memorize the air
G                                D
There'll come a time I'll wanna know when I was here
C                        Em
Names on the doorframes, inches and ages
G                         D
Handprints in concrete at the softest stages
C            Em         G     D
I don't know why I don't try harder
C           Em        G          D
I feel like throwin' towels into water

Pre-chorus
             C                       G
Move forward now, there's nothin' to do
           D
Can't turn around, I can't follow you
     C                   G
Your coat's in my car, I guess you forgot
             D
It's crazy, the things we let go of

Chorus
           C                  G/B
It finally hits me, a mile's drive
           D/A
The sky is leaking, the windshield's crying
           C                   G/B
I'm feelin' sacred, my soul is stripped
           D/A
Radio's painful, the words are clipped
             C                  G/B
The grief it gets me, the weird goodbyes
           D/A
My car is creepin', I think it's dyin'
            C              G/B
I'm pullin' over until it heals
           D/A
I'm on a shoulder of lemon fields

Outro
             C                  G/B
The grief it gets me, the weird goodbyes
           D/A
My car is creepin', I think it's dyin'
            C              G/B
I'm pullin' over until it heals
           D/A
I'm on a shoulder of lemon fields
