Window Sill Chords & Lyrics - Misc Your Songs - Thumbless Hitchhikers

[A]Shuffling slowly d[E]own the street,[D] shiny concrete [E]at my feet
[A]Little houses that all l[E]ook the same,[D] set inside the p[E]icturesque frame
Of an [A]instant, overnight n[E]eighborhood where the b[D]ugs don't bite and the l[E]awns look good

INSTRUMENTAL: | A | E | D | E |

G[A]et home and cl[E]imb the stairs,[D] think about whens, wh[E]ys and wheres
But it's h[A]appening right h[E]ere and now, l[D]ook out my window and w[E]onder how
T[A]ime passed so qu[E]ickly by,[D] used to think I could t[E]ouch the sky
[A] [E] [D] [E] | A | E | D | E |
When I climbed that oak tree across the way, they just cut it down today

CHORUS: [D] Engulfed by the r[E]ising tide,[A] how can we just st[D]and as[E]ide?
They got b[D]ig plans f[E]or a small town,[A] where'd we get this t[D]ourist cr[E]owd?
We got n[A]ew faces and [D]empty spaces to f[E]ill
[A] [D] [E] | A | D | E | E |
I want to know how all of this can be real, starin' out my window sill

[A]Growth has come and m[E]ade its mark,[D] the new buildings are c[E]old and stark
[A]More people, more cr[E]ime, more cars,[D] come and leave their [E]ugly scars
[A]Why can't things rem[E]ain the same? [D] I want to know wh[E]o to blame
[A]I think the culprit m[E]ight be found if I l[D]ean out my window and l[E]ook around
[A] [E] [D] [E] | A | E | D | E |
I'll face my deepest fear within: That change came because we let it in

CHORUS: [D] Engulfed by the r[E]ising tide,[A] how can we just st[D]and as[E]ide?
They got b[D]ig plans f[E]or a small town,[A] where'd we get this t[D]ourist cr[E]owd?
We got n[A]ew faces and [D]empty spaces to f[E]ill
[A] [D] [E] | A | D | E | E |
I want to know how all of this can be real, starin' out my window sill
