Styrofoam Plates chords and lyrics - DEATH CAB FOR CUTIE

Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[G]There's a saltwater film
on the jar of your ashes
I [Em]threw them to sea,
but a [C]gust blew them backward[F]s
[D]And the sting in my eyes,
which you then inflicted
Was [Eb]par for the course,
just [D]as when you were living
It's [G]no stretch to say you were
[Dsus4]not quite a fat[G]her
But a [C]donor of seeds to
a poor single mother
That [F]would [D]raise us alone,
we never [Dsus4]saw the m[D]oney
That [Eb]went down your throat through the
[D]hole in your belly

[Verse 2]
[G]Thirteen years old in
the suburbs of Denver
[C]Standing in line for Thanksgiving dinner
At [D]the Catholic church,
the servers wore crosses
[Eb]To shield from the sufferance [D]plaguing
the [G]others
Styrofoam plates, cafeteria tables
[Em]Char[C]ity reeks of cheap wine and pity
And [D]I'm thinking of you,
I do every year
When we [Eb]count all our blessings and [D]wonder what we're doing here

[Verse 3]
[G]You're a disgrace to the
concept of family
The [Em]priest won't divulge
that [C]fact in his homily
And I'll [D]stand up and scream
if the mourning remain quiet
[A]You [Eb]can deck out a lie in [D]a suit,
but I won't buy it
I won't [G]join in the procession
that's speaking their piece
Using five-[Em]dollar words [G]words
[C]while praising his integrity
And [D]just 'cause he's gone,
it doesn't change [G]the [D]fact
He was [A]a b[Eb]astard in life, thus, a b[D]astard in death,

[Outro 1]
