Car Seat Headrest - Beach Life-In-Death Chords

Part I
             C  
Last night I drove to Harper's Ferry and I thought about you

there were signs on the road that warned me of stop signs
    D
the speed limit kept decreasing by ten

as we entered a town about halfway there
       G
it was almost raining at the train station
 
we put our hoods on our heads at the train station
         B
we threw rocks into the river

the river underneath the train tracks

             C
And when the train came it was so big and powerful

when it came into the little station
            D
I wanted to put my arms around it

but the conductor looked at me funny
      G 
so we had to say goodbye and leave

the monopoly board still in the backseat
          B
took that nightmare left turn to get out of town

ran into the decreasing speed limits again

I never came out to my friends

We were all on Skype

and I laughed and changed the subject
                           B

I said "do you have something against

dogs"

C
I am almost completely soulless

I am incapable of being human
D
I am incapable of being inhuman

I am living uncontrollably

          G
It should be antidepression

as a friend of mine suggested
