Verse:
      E                                        A
My confusion corner commuters are cursing the cold away
     E                                              A
As December tries to dissemble the length of their working day
          E                                            A
And they bite their mitts off to show me transfers, deposit change
       E                                                A
And I can't stop finding your face in their faces, all rearranged
     B             B/C
And angry like you never were
Chorus:
       E
And I ease us back into traffic
A
Dusk comes on and I wonder
E                           A
Why I'm always remembering you
          E5     E/Eb  C#5  B5
At civil twilight
Verse:
         E                                              A
For the most part I think about golfing and constantly calculate
         E                                         A
All the seconds left in the minutes, and so on, etcetera
      E                                         A
Or recite the names of provinces and Hollywood actors;
      E                               A
Oh, Ontario, oh, Jennifer Jason Leigh
B                B/C
This part of the day bewilders me
Chorus:
E
Streets slow down and ice over,
A
Dusk comes on and I struggle
    E                                  A
To stop, to stop, to stop thinking of you
          E5     E/Eb  C#5  B5
At civil twilight
Bridge:
F#m                     G#m
Hey, every other hour I pass that house,
           A                B     B/C
Where you told me that you had to go
F#m                           G#m
I wonder if the landlord has fixed the crack,
        A                     B      B/C
That I stared at, instead of staring back
Chorus:
   E
At you. My chance to say something
A
Seemed so brief but it wasn't
E                           A
Now I know I had plenty of time
             E
Between the sunset and certified darkness
A
Dusk comes on and I follow
       E                           A
The exhaust from memory up to the end
          E5     E/Eb  C#5  B5  A
At civil twilight
          E5     E/Eb  C#5  B5  A
At civil twilight
          E5     E/Eb  C#5  B5  A
At civil twilight
