[Verse 1]
           A
After the earthquake
                  G
Pictures hanging diagonally
                           A
Drive through crying in a milkshake
                    G
It wasn’t built to last
 
 
[Verse 2]
            A
Up in the front seat
                            G
You were playing with the station
                          A
And I was fidgeting with the heat
                     D               G            Em
Looking back to the vibrant days of racket in the hall
 
 
[Chorus]
  D              A
Caution to the breeze
                      Em               D       A
Say you’ll climb your way out of your wake now-ow
                Em
Velvet curtain drawn
  D              A
Flowers at your feet
                   C                G          A
Say you’ll contemplate how you’re weighed down

[Verse 3]
                   A                          G
The pulse of the brakelight is the colour of burning embers
                            A
If you wake up, will you remember
                     G
The awful things I said at the edge of the bed?
 
 
[Verse 4]
                   A
Thrashing like a great white
                                       G
         As they rolled you up on a stretcher
(I feel the   northern   tide        crashing)
                                 A
And the faint words of Jessica Fletcher
(on   the   pines)
                                   D       G            Em
         Were drowned out by the sound of racket in the hall
(I feel the    northern    tide     crashing on the pines)
 
 
[Chorus]
  D            A
Caution to the breeze
                      Em               D       A
Say you’ll climb your way out of your wake now-ow
 
 
[Bridge 1]
      Dmaj7                        Gmaj7
Those days, I’d never let you fall apart
           Dmaj7                               Gmaj7
But things fade  like the scent of a brand new  car
                         Dmaj7
Why would I ever fall in love  again
     E7               Em        D        A
When every detail is over the guardrail?
                      Em               D    A
Say you’ll climb your way out of your wake now
 
 
[Chorus]
 A                 C               Em      A
Say you’ll contemplate how you’re weighed down
 
 
[Post-Chorus]
                   Em  D  A
Are you awake now?
                   Em  D  A
Are you awake now?
 
 
[Outro]
              Em
Racket in the hall
  D              A
Caution to the breeze
                Em
Velvet curtain drawn
  D              A
Flowers at your feet
 
 
[Outro]
