The Future Islands - Back In The Tall Grass Chords

[Intro]
C5
 
[Verse 1]
C5
Home isn't open
C5
It's like, when you get here
C5
The tracks by the creek bed
C5
The minnow's the body
C5
Crawdads with their heads down low
C5
Back in the tall grass
C5
Stinging my cattails, oh!
C5
Looking for brother
C5
It feels like winter
C5
But it's the heart of the summer
C5
We can't go swimming
C5
As long as we slumber
               C5   D5       C5
'Cause we're a long way from home
  C5   D5       C5
A long way from home
  C5   D5       C5
A long way from home
C5
How did we get here?
 
[Pre-Chorus]
C5
One step takes me home
C5
Two steps back on my own
C5
Three skips to each stone
C5
Four steps back and I'm gone
 
[Chorus]
   Em F              Em
And I wanted you to know
        F              Em
I was thinking about you
    F                Em
And you look like a rose
   F
Especially
           C    D5       C5
When I'm a long way from home
  C5   D5       C5
A long way from home
  C5   D5       C5
A long way from home
C5
How did we get here?
C5
Back to the body
C5
Words jump like salmon
 
[Pre-Chorus]
C5
One step takes me home
C5
Two steps back on my own
C5
Three skips to each stone
C5
Four steps back and I'm gone
 
[Chorus]
   Em F              Em
And I wanted you to know
        F              Em
I was thinking about you
         F                Em
And baby, you look like a rose
   F
Especially
        C5     D5 C5
In that backwater
C5
Running through the woods
C5
In that red water
C5
In the mirror
C5
Thinking of you
C5
Spend all day just thinking of you
C5
In the mirror thinking of you
C5
Spend my days just thinking of you
C5
Oh, baby, thinking of you
C5
All day, thinking of you
 
 
[Chorus]
 
   Em F              Em
And I wanted you to know
        F              Em
I was thinking about you
    F                Em
And you look like a rose

Long way from home (Long way from home)
C
Long way from home (Long way from home)
C
Long way from home
