Artist: Boy And Bear
[G] ([C]) [G]
[G]The end of the line
A calamity at[C] first sight
Now the man in me don'[Am]t walk right
Just like a pebble in my [D]shoe[D7]
[G] ([C]) [G]
But you were a wanderer;
And a competent [C]one at that
So it caught me by surpr[Am]ise this venerability
That I never thought I h[D]ad
But you trie[Em]d so hard to say oh
[C]everything you w[G]anted to
But with an achi[Am]ng to[G]ngue[D] -
Oh [Am]you spat out at the world[G] now[D] not of words
but at the[D7] pearl tha[C]t had belon[G]ged to her
So I wen[C]t back to the country [G]
where t[C]he air was mild and sweet[G]
[Am]I was in need of some reprieve and intermission
Oh to gather up my t[D]hings and to get back upon my feet
But I cant say[C] I've got the answ[G]ers
For it's [C]always shades o[G]f grey
[Am]But there's a warmth in the air in mid-September
And its [D]enough across my face just to
[C] [G] ([C]) [G]
Remind me that I'm well upon my way
[G]And I feel the ease
[C]Man I feel it tingle in my toes
How funny are the way tha[Am]t these memories do grow
Into some old [D]french film in black and white
[G] ([C]) -[G]
And I know the ropes
Because you see I've s[C]aid goodbye to some lovers
Fleshed out and [Am]tied to each other
By that invi[D]sible string it tangles me
[Em]And when that morning came up fast well it
[C]Broke the fever s[G]quare upon its back
[Am]and f[G]inall[D]y I felt just like I should
oh[Am] the blood [G]under my fingers warmed
[D]the clearing of two month st[C]orm now d[G]one...
So I went ba[C]ck to the co[G]untry
where t[C]he air's now bitter sweet[G]
[Am]as subtle is the change of my indifference
Oh but stra[D]nge is how this solitude
can beat a man complete
and I can't [C]wait 'till t[G]he morning;
be it[C] sunshine, hail or snow [G]
see I do[Am] not believe in superstition
But somewhe[D]re amongst this mess
[C] [G] ([C]) [G]
I may have found some happiness to call my own
Oh and [Am]time is a healer[D7]
[C]time is a friend of [G]mine
[Am]in time if you fe[D7]el it
[C]would you be a frien[G]d of mine
oh I ho[C]pe you're a friend of mine
[G]The end of the line
A calamity at[C] first sight
