Neutral Milk Hotel - Trilogy Chords

[Verse 1]
Am
Watch the wind
                                     E
Blow your cigarette smoke through my window and out to the sky
Am
Message sent
                                    E
Drilled into your heart but now the ink will fade before the night is through
   Am    E   Am  E
My dear

[Chorus]
D          Am                       E
Where were you when the cracks were forming?
D          Am                    E
Where were you when it all caved in?
D        Am                 E
You were sleeping safe that morning
D           Am            E
Holding insecurities that burrow underneath your skin and fade away

[Verse 2]
Am
All along, another twisted moment's gone that will
E
Never pass this way again
    Am
And through it all, I thought there'd be some shred of hope but
E
Faith I've found will do you in
    Am
And all the words that build into a bridge of love between me and you
        E
It will stumble, crack, and fail to fly
           Am
And now my only one, where have you gone?
         E
Are you another heart that I must say goodbye, my dear?

[Chorus]
D          Am                       E
Where were you when the cracks were forming?
D          Am                    E
Where were you when it all caved in?
D        Am                 E
You were sleeping safe that morning
D           Am            E
Holding insecurities that burrow underneath your skin and fade a-

[Verse 3]
Am
Goldaline my dear
We will fold and freeze together
E
Far away from here
There is sun and spring and green forever
    Am
But now we move to feel
For ourselves inside some stranger's stomach
E
Place your body here
                                         Am    E  Am
Let your skin begin to blend itself with mine

[Verse 4]
Am
Don't you be afraid for this
E
Green with hollow days on
Am
Never be afraid for this
E
Green with hollow days on

[Verse 5]
         C     G
I really burnt you
         D                     Em
I really made all your opiates wrong
               C     G
Wait around to hurt you
                         D                                    Em
Bring it all on down and all around and see which one gets off

[Chorus 2]
               C
And I aint moving
Tell you something
G                             D                                     Em
Once you mistake the songs it stings and stays and waiting here for you
                          C
But, now there is nothing
                                  G
All but the weight that is coming
                      D                     Em  C  G  D  Em
See it on the way and on the way and on and on
