Death Cab for Cutie - Death of an Interior Decorator: chords

A#            Gm7        D#             A#
You were the mother of three girls so sweet
       A#             Gm7                D#
That stormed through your turnstile and climbed
         A#
to the street
             Gm7            D#       A#
But after conception, your body lay cold
     A#               Gm7            D#
And withered through autumn and you found
         A#
yourself old
                  F                   D7
Can you tell me why you have been so sad?

He took a lover on a faraway beach
While you arranged flowers and chose color schemes
Can you tell me why you have been so sad?
Can you tell me why you have been so sad?

     A#
The girls were all there, they traded their vows
     Gm7
The youngest one glared with furrowed brows
      D#
They tenderly kissed, then cut the cake
      A#
The bride then tripped and broke the vase

    D#
The one you thought would spend the years
   Dm
So perfectly placed below the mirror
   D#
Arriving late, you clean the debris
     Dm
And walked into the angry sea

   Cm              Gm         F     G
It felt just like falling in love again
       Cm             Gm          F    D#
And it felt just like falling in love again

Can you tell me why you have been so sad?
Can you tell me why you have been so...
