End Of The Line chords by Boy And Bear

Chords with lyrics

1 full step down [2 frets]

G+G [C majorC] G+G

G+G
The end of the line
       C majorC
A augmentedA calamity at first sight
           A minorAm
Now the man in me don't walk right
             D MajorD  D7D7
Just like a pebble in my shoe

G+G        [C majorC] G+G
But you were a wanderer;
        C majorC
And a competent one at that
            A minorAm
So it caught me by surprise this venerability
            D MajorD
That I never thought I had

      E minorEm
But you tried so hard to say oh
C majorC        G+G
everything you wanted to
        A minorAm  G+G  D MajorD
But with an aching tongue-
  A minorAm            G+G  D MajorD
Oh you spat out at the world now not of words
     D7D7    C majorC     G+G
but at the pearl that had belonged to her

    C majorC            G+G
So I went back to the country
    C majorC            G+G
where the air was mild and sweet
A minorAm
I was in need of some reprieve and intermission
          D MajorD
Oh to gather up my things and to get back upon my feet
       C majorC         G+G
But I cant say I've got the answers
     C majorC       G+G
For it's always shades of grey
A minorAm
But there's a warmth in the air in mid-September
    D MajorD
And its enough across my face just to
        C majorC       G+G   [C majorC]  G+G
Remind me that I'm well upon my way

G+G
And I feel the ease
C majorC
Man I feel it tingle in my toes
             A minorAm
How funny are the way that these memories do grow
       D MajorD
Into some old french film in black and white
G+G       [C majorC]-G
And I know the ropes
           C majorC
Because you see I've said goodbye to some lovers
        A minorAm
Fleshed out and tied to each other
      D MajorD
By that invisible string it tangles me

E minorEm
And when that morning came up fast well it
C majorC        G+G
Broke the fever square upon its back
A minorAm  G+G  D MajorD
and finally I felt just like I should
 A minorAm     G+G
oh the blood under my fingers warmed
D MajorD              C majorC    G+G
the clearing of two month storm now done...

      C majorC      G+G
So I went back to the country
    C majorC            G+G
where the air's now bitter sweet
A minorAm
as subtle is the change of my indifference
      D MajorD
Oh but strange is how this solitude

can beat a man complete
      C majorC      G+G
and I can't wait 'till the morning;
   C majorC             G+G
be it sunshine, hail or snow
    A minorAm
see I do not believe in superstition
      D MajorD
But somewhere amongst this mess
    C majorC                G+G   [C majorC]  G+G
I may have found some happiness to call my own


    A minorAm       D7D7
Oh and time is a healer
C majorC          G+G
time is a friend of mine
A minorAm        D7D7
in time if you feel it
C majorC          G+G
would you be a friend of mine
    C majorC
oh I hope you're a friend of mine
