Thee Oh Sees - The River Rushes To Screw Md Over Chords

[Verse]
C G           E
Expertly, the river flows
 C  G          E
Eventually, it takes me home
    C  G             E
The weeping willows upon the shore
    C   G       E
Are memories of lovers gone
    C G                 E
And I don't think these things are real
     C     G           E
They might be hints of used to be
     C    G         E
Like lovers lusting on the breeze
   C     G         E
Or f**kers burning out their knees
A
Waiting as themes are freed
A/B  C
From pages in a memory
A
I can say "Ain't it silly"
A/B   C                 C/B
For remembering what used to be
