Aside

G  D  C

[Verse 1]
G
Measure me in metered lines
      Bm
And one decisive stare
      D                            
The time it takes to get from here 
   C
to there
    G
My ribs that show through t-shirts
             Bm
And these shoes I got for free
         D
I'm unconsoled
       C
I'm lonely, I am
      D               C     Bm   
So much better than I used to be
    A


[Instrumental] (x2)
G  D  C

[Verse 2]
G
Terrified of telephones
    Bm
And shopping malls and knives
D                               C
Drowning in the pools of other lives

G
Rely a bit too heavily
   Bm
On alcohol and irony
    D
Get clobbered on
   C
By courtesy
    D                  C         
In love with love and lousy 
Bm           A
poetry

[Chorus]
G                        C
And I'm leaning on this broken fence

         Em                 C
Between past and present tense
           G              C
And I'm losing all those stupid 
games
         Em              C
That I swore I'd never play
           Em    D     G       D
But it almost feels okay
         C   G       D         C

Bm                     D
Circumnavigate this body
Em            D        C
Of wonder and uncertainty
Bm                             D
Armed with every precious failure
Em        D          C
And amateur cartography
I'm breathing deep before
    D            C          
I spread those maps out on my 
           Bm       A
bedroom floor

[Chorus]
G                        C
And I'm leaning on this broken fence

         Em                 C
Between past and present tense
           G              C
And I'm losing all those stupid 
games
         Em              C
That I swore I'd never play
           Em    D              G
But it feels okay    And I'm 
       D         C
leaving with goodbye
G             D       C
And I'm losing but I'll try
Em              D
With the last ways left
Em              D
To remember sing
Em              D         G
My imperfect offering
