(Acoustic Version)
Death Cab for Cutie
Intro: / A - - - / D â?? Asus2 - / E â?? Esus4 - / D - - - / (x2)
[A] [D] [Asus2]
I put on my overcoat and
[E] [Esus4] [D]
walked into winter - my teeth chattered rhythms
[A] And they were grouped in twos or threes,[D] like a[Asus2]
[E] [Esus4] [D]
Morse code message was sent from me to
[A] [D] [Asus2]
Me. And cars on slippery slopes were stuck: people
[E] [Esus4] [D]

E Esus4 D (x2 measures)

[F#5] [Dm/maj7]
I got left there, too.
