Genre: indie, rock, punk


The D7 at the end of verses 2, 4, and 6 is not quite right.

It sounds like the notes of the C chord persist with hints of d and f# over

it, mayble like x32032.

Try it out and have fun with this great song.

[Intro]
Em

[Verse 1]
Em C G
When you're far from home I do believe its fair
Em C G
To use a public bathroom mirror to cut your hair
Em
In a cheap South Hampton diner
Am
I am both Samson and Delilah
C G
As i chain myself to the pillars of nowhere

[Verse 2]
Em C G
And i walk back to the booth were i was sat
Em C G
With my transformation hidden beneath my hat
Em
That's when suddenly it strikes me
Am
All the lonely pilgrims like me
C D7
Form a tribe of travelers scattered across the map

[Chorus]
C G
So let's defy the distance here to there
C G
Let's writе each other postcards and call it prayer
C B7 Em A7
Lеt's congregate in a place that isnt any - where
G D G
At the temple of broken dreams

[Verse 3]
Em C G
You're a collection of the shards that you can save
Em C G
We're all destined for perfection in the grave
Em
Until then when struggle ceases
Am
Were just juggling the pieces
C G
Like a waitress with too many empty plates
