[Verse 2]
Green striped sheets left dead [G]for me
Now I am [A]free to bury [G]heavy bodies
Once we three had slept soundly
But I couldn't [A]keep them around
Fold the blankets down
And [D]found new sleeping [G]grounds

[Verse 3]
[G]As springs squeaking
[D]Tires squealing [G]away from one another
We all [D]used to be lovers
Here [G]bodies playing, [D]slay them,
stay like them, [G]boxes stacked
Same [D]way, labeled and separated, hey

[Verse 4]
Go ahead take the couch I know I [G]don't
wanna sit here next to nobody
[D]Go ahead take the fridge,
I know I [G]don't want you going hungry
[D]Go ahead take the cat,
I know [G]you're only gonna be coming back
[D]Oh go ahead take it all,
I know [G]how you've been wanting [Bm]to
[A]Settle down, down, [G]down
Oh- hoo, has it always [Bm]been
[A]settling down?
[G]Down, down

[G]The [D]one on the left says to the one on the right
[G]"I could make a very good wife for you"
The [D]one on the right says to the one on [G]the left
"Let's take this one step at a time"
[D]The one [G]on [D]the right says to the one on [G]the left "You know,
I need you all the [D]time"
The on the left says to the one on [G]the right
"I think I changed [D]my mind"

[Verse 6]
[G]
I can't help [D]but think my
[G]insides have to [D]sing
They're the [G]waking, the better of [D]me
And my [G]insides have [D]to sing
A song for the sad ones who say they'll [G]marry,
[D]they guess
[G]She's wearing a white dress,
if he behaves his [D]very best
Songs for the sad ones who say they'll marry,
they guess
[G]She's wearing a white dress,
if he behaves his very [D]best
[G]Songs [D]for the sad ones who say they'll marry,
they guess
[G]She's wearing a white dress,
if he behaves his very best
[D]Songs for the sad ones who say
they'll marry, they guess
[G]She's wearing a white dress,

[Verse 7]
if he behaves his very best
[D]That's yes, yes, yes, yes,
yes, yes, yes, yes, yeah
Yes, yes, [G]yes, [D]yes, yes, yes, yes, yes

[Verse 8]
Go ahead take the couch I know I [G]don't
wanna sit here next [D]to nobody
Go ahead take the fridge,

Go ahead take the cat,
I know [G]you're only gonna be coming [D]back
So go ahead, take it all
I know how [G]you've been- you've been
wanting to all [Bm]this time
[A]Settle [G]down, has it always been [Bm]settling down,
[A]down?
[G]

[Verse 9]
[Bm]My laugh but she won't s[A]pring
They will tell you everything if
[G]you lay down for a minute
Oh, [Bm]my laugh but she won't s[A]pring
They will tell you everything if
[G]you lay down for a minute
The [Bm]mat tress- maker's making his [A]living by the minute,
[G]by the minute
