First Aid Kit

     D MajorD           G+G
With the first light and the little
A augmentedA     D MajorD
Fragile moon
    D MajorD     G+G
I was out on the porch now
  A augmentedA     D MajorD
I'm ready for doom
     G+G      A augmentedA      D MajorD
And it's funny how it all came to be
 G+G      A augmentedA        D MajorD
The way you so plainly chose to stare at me

D MajorD         G+G
And the afternoon embraces you
A augmentedA           D MajorD
Like a million worried hands
D MajorD         G+G
And I want to look forward
A augmentedA          D MajorD
Go discover foreign land
G+G          A augmentedA
In the mirror I was balancing
D MajorD
On tiny strings
G+G           A augmentedA
It looks silly but oh really it's just
D MajorD
A augmentedA physical thing


D MajorD     G+G
So tell me why you ask me
A augmentedA     D MajorD
To do as I please
D MajorD       G+G
I would rather fall backwards
A augmentedA     D MajorD
And forget everything
G+G         A augmentedA
And I've tried to call on you when
D MajorD
I know you're not home
G+G       A augmentedA
I'm not ready for this but it's
D MajorD
The way it goes

G+G A augmentedA D MajorD  x2



D MajorD         G+G
It was easier when I knew
A augmentedA          D MajorD
Nnothing of what I'd missed
D MajorD           G+G
You're so happy I can see it and that's
A augmentedA         D MajorD
The worst part of it
G+G        A augmentedA
So let her take you out
D MajorD
On sea
G+G              A augmentedA
I will wave to you from the harbor
D MajorD
Oh little silly me


E minorEm     A augmentedA
The sailors leave in the morning
DmDm     A augmentedA
I'll be waiting for you all night
E minorEm      A augmentedA
The ship sets off in the morning
E minorEm      A augmentedA
I'll be waiting for you all right
    A augmentedA    E minorEm
Oh night
    A augmentedA    E minorEm
Oh night
    A augmentedA    E minorEm
Oh night
    A augmentedA
Oh night
