D
It went well
C
You didn't have to do it all by yourself
G
Some friends came over and helped
D
A hand truck, a friend with a van
D
And you're moving out again
C
Remembering when you first came
G
It's crazy these streets look the same
D
They looked different when they were strange
D
And it's always weird to erase
C
Every personal trace
G
From a place you called home for a while
D
And see all that you own in a pile
D
A place that had become a friend
C
To return it to how it had been
G D
To be friends with whomever moves in
D
And you stick around
C
After all the boxes are down
G
The fridge is empty- just one ice tray
D
And you swept and mopped more today
D
Than the entire time that you stayed
C
It's a shame you now have to leave
G
The place is actually nice when it's clean
D
It wasn't hard mopping the floor
D
Why didn't you ever do that before?
C
Now the van is down on the corner
G
And you've done everything that you're gonna
D
There's some pennies and dust on that shelf
D
But the landlord can clean it herself
C
And you're not sure, but you're going to claim
G D
The blinds were busted like that when you came
Em7 Em
Man, so existential in that room
Em D
So existential with that broom
Em7
Cause the room looks the same
Em
Except there's no life left
Em D
And you start thinking about death
Em7 Em
When you die, will it be the same?
Em
No more thoughts decorating your brain?
D
An empty space for the world to reclaim?
Em7 A
You're on the verge of thinking something deep
A
Then you hear the van give the beep
D C
Then you take one last look around to make sure
G
Then you take one last walk out the door
D
And you'll never again see the angle
D
Of the street you saw from that window
C
You take the key out of your pocket
G
You close the front door and you lock it
D
Drop the key back through the slot
D
Sure hope there's nothing you forgot
