Anchorless

D           Bm             A    
They called here to tell me that
         Bm
 you're finally dying,
D         Bm              A      G
Through a veil of childish cries.
D         Bm     A             
Southern Manitoba prairie's pulling 
Bm
at the,
D          Bm           A
Pant leg of your bad disguise.

[Chorus]
            G      D A   G
So why were you so anchorless?
  D       A     G
A boat abandoned in some backyard.
D A   G
Anchorless,
       D         A         G
In the small town that you lived and
 died in.

[Verse 2]
D           A                  
I've got an armchair from your 
Bm         A
family home,
D        A              Bm      
Got your P.G. Wodehouse novels 
        A      G
and your telephone.
D             A                   
I've got your plates and stainless
 Bm    A
 steel,
D        A            Bm        
Got that way of never saying 
      A      G
what you really feel.

[Chorus]
   D A   G
So anchorless?
  D       A     G
A boat abandoned in some backyard.
D A   G
Anchorless,
       D         A         G
In the small town that you lived and
 died in.

D A  Bm      A           G
     I don't want to live and die

D A  Bm      A           G
     I don't want to live and die 
here.

[Chorus]
A           D A   G
Where we're anchorless,
  D       A     G
A boat abandoned in some backyard.
D A   G
Anchorless,
       D         A         G     
In the small town that you lived 
         D
and died in.
