Asphalt Meadows Chords by Death Cab for Cutie

Intro
 
Verse 1
Em
 Your kiss was a lonely prayer
D
 When you slipped it into my mouth
Cmaj7
 I closed my eyes and held it in
Am
 Then I exhaled it out
Em
 The glow of the downtown lights
D
 Casting shadows across your face
Cmaj7
 As if all the buildings knew
E
 I could only know half of you
 
Verse 2
Em
 And I was a snake under your flowers
D
 I just wanted to disappear
Cmaj7
 Into the understory of your beauty
Am
 Never to reappear
Em
 But there's a name written on your cast
D
 Above the bruised and broken bones
Cmaj7
 It tells everybody that you need
E
 To whom the damage is owеd
 
Chorus
Am
 We are a wave of whitе noise
Fmaj7
 Beneath the city sleeping
C
 I saw the train doors closing
D
 I felt your sorrow deepen
Am
 Here in the asphalt meadows
Fmaj7
 There's only one thing that grows
C
 Finding the life through the concrete
D        Cmaj7          Cmaj7      Cmaj7
 Getting trampled under our feet
 
Verse 3
Em
 You set all your bridges in rows
D
 They all lead to an airport
Cmaj7
 Planes drifting off into the sky
Am
 Always depart, but never seem to arrive
Em
 And there in the early hour
D
 Lying naked in your unmade bed
Cmaj7
 I was thinking of how to tell you
E
 What my ticket read
 
Bridge
Em
 Your kiss was a lonely prayer
D
 A single candle, slowly burning down
Cmaj7
 But the light, your light was beautiful
E
 Then it's here and now
  
Chorus
Am
 We are a wave of whitе noise
Fmaj7
 Beneath the city sleeping
C
 I saw the train doors closing
D
 I felt your sorrow deepen
Am
 Here in the asphalt meadows
Fmaj7
 There's only one thing that grows
C
 Finding the life through the concrete
D        Cmaj7          Am
 Getting trampled under our feet
         Am
We are a wave of whitе noise
Fmaj7
 Beneath the city sleeping
C
 I saw the train doors closing
G
 I felt your sorrow deepen
Am
 Here in the asphalt meadows
Fmaj7
 There's only one thing that grows
C
 Finding the life through the concrete
D        Cmaj7          Cmaj7
 Getting trampled under our feet
        D              Cmaj7
Getting trampled under our feet
        Cmaj7          D
Getting trampled under our feet
        Cmaj7          Cmaj7
Getting trampled under our feet
