Death Cab for Cutie - Ingenue: chords

G
Ingénue what have we done to you?
                  C
Under that soft skin
             G
I hear a ticking

The currency of being twenty-three
It turns from gold to dust
When you crest the wave of lust

G
So take all you can
From the mouth of man

Ingénue, framed like a cartoon
The borders clear and defined
The colors bold and bright

You'll want to be taken more seriously
But they just play a cue
And it's such a hard thing to do

   Em
So take all you can
          D
From the mouth of man
      Em
And escape from this town
             C
Before your sand runs out
             G
Before your sand runs out

Ingénue, what will become of you?
When age's glacial pace
Cuts valleys into your face

The currency of being twenty-three
It will remain the same
Just by another name

Oh, ingénue
What will you do?
Oh, ingénue
What have we done to you?
