Death Cab for Cutie - The Ice Is Getting Thinner: chords

     Am      Am/D
Were not the same, dear
    F          C
As we used to be
     Am            G
The seasons have changed
     F       D
And so have we
               Am               Am/D
And there was little we could say
          F                   C
And even less that we could do
            Am                 G
To stop the ice from getting thinner
       F       C
Under me and you

We bury our love in the wintry grave
A lump in the snow was all that remained
Though we stayed by its side as
the days turned to weeks
And the ice kept getting thinner
with every word that we'd speak

      F                C
And when the spring arrived
         F            C#
We were taken by surprise
          Dm              G
When the flows under our feet
     C         F
Bled into the sea
     G
And nothing was left
For you and me

We're not the same, dear, and it seems to me
There's nowhere we can go with nothing underneath
And it saddens me to say what we both knew was true
That the ice was getting thinner under me and you

The ice was getting thinner under me and you
