Dismantling Summer

[Intro] E  B  A  E  B  A

[First Part]

E           B         A
I'm pulling wings off insects
E           B       A
I'm peeling back my sunburnt skin
E         B            A
I'll wait outside your bedroom
E      B        A
I hope they let me in

[Second Part]

E           B         A
I'm filling your prescriptions
E          B             A
The orange bottles stare me down
E       B        A
They're standing at attention
E       B       A
An army on your windowsill

[Pre-Chorus]

A                       B
We're all waiting for good news
E                     A
Hoping you can come home soon
C#m                   A
We're all waiting for good news

[Chorus]

E          A
I've been acting like I'm strong
         C#m       B
But the truth is, I've been losing 
ground
C#m             A
To a hospital too crowded,
E               B
A summer winding down
C#m             A                B
I hadn't seen a heartbreak until now
Continues after the ad
C#m             A                E
I hadn't felt a heartbreak until now

( E  B  A  E  B  A )

[Third Part]

E      B          A
I grew up on your back porch
E     B           A
And I watched the storms light up 
the clouds
E         B          A
They hung like paper lanterns
E            B        A
To guide the way back toward your 
house

[Pre-Chorus]

A                     B
I've been putting off long flights
E                     A
Hoping that you'll be all right
C#m                    A
And I'll be there in the meantime

[Chorus]

E          A
I've been acting like I'm strong
         C#m       B
But the truth is, I've been losing 
ground
C#m             A
To a hospital too crowded,
E               B
A summer winding down
C#m             A                B
I hadn't seen a heartbreak until now
C#m             A                E
I hadn't felt a heartbreak until now

[Bridge]

E            A
If I'm in an airport
                E
And you're in a hospital bed
      B                          
Well, then, what kind of man does 
      E
that make me?
             A
If I'm in an airport
                E
And you're in a hospital bed
       B                         
Well, then, what kind of man does 
      E
that make me?
             A
If I'm in an airport
             E
If I'm in an airport
B                           E
What kind of man does that make me?
A
What kind of man does that make me?

[Chorus]

E          A
I've been acting like I'm strong
         C#m       B
But the truth is, I've been losing 
ground
C#m             A
To a hospital too crowded,
E               B
A summer winding down
C#m             A                B
I hadn't seen a heartbreak until now
C#m             A                E
I hadn't felt a heartbreak until now
A                              B
Hadn't felt a heartbreak until now
A
Hadn't felt a heartbreak
       C#m           A
Oh the hospital's too crowded
   E               B
The summer's winding down
C#m              A                
I haven't seen a heartbreak until 
C#m
now
C#m                   A          
Well I haven't felt a heartbreak 
      E
until now
