Until The Ribbon Breaks Chords

(ver. 1)
Until The Ribbon Breaks
Tuning: Standard

Chords:

F Em Fmaj7 C

F              Em
I dreamed that I, had lost you
F(maj7)    C
I woke up, with a tear

F                       Em
I think you left it on, my pillow case
Dm
The last time you were here

F                         Em
And we came from nowhere; we came from nothing
F                           C
And we could go back there, if that's what it takes

F
But I made a promise
Em
That I'd try to keep you
Dm
Until the ribbon breaks
Dm
Until the ribbon breaks

[A couple of bars of eerie noises]

F             Em
I wonder why, I came home
F                C
More red letters, through my door
F                    Em
Oh but you just came from nowhere
Dm
We've been sleeping on the floor
Dm
I don't feel homesick anymore

F         C               Dm Dm
So who am I to cheat time?
F                             C
I've been trying to gauge the ending
Dm                      Dm
And you'll do just fine
F                    Am
So use me, taped and broken,
G                      G
Like your favorite old tape
Dm                                 Dm
We could just play out through the summer,
Dm                      Dm
Until the ribbon breaks

So use me, taped and broken,
G                      G
Like your favorite old tape
Dm                                 Dm

Until the ribbon breaks
