[Intro 1]
[C][G][D]
[Em][D][C]
[C][G]

[Verse 1]
It's a [C]still life [G]water[D]color
Of a [C]now-late [G]after[D]noon
As the [C]sun shines [G]through the [Am]curtain lace
And [G]shadows wash the [G]room
And we [Em]sit and drink our c[C]offee[Em]
[F]Couched in our indifference,
like [E]shells upon the shore
You can [D]hear the ocean roar
In the [C]dangling [G]conver[D]sation
And the [Em]super[D]ficial [C]sighs
The [C]borders of our
[G]lives

[Verse 2]
And you [C]read your [G]Emily [D]Dickinson
And [C]I my R[G]obert F[D]rost
And we [C]note our [G]place with [Am]book markers
That [G]measure what we've [G]lost
Like a [Em]poem poorly [C]written[Em]
We are [F]verses out of rhythm
[E]Couplets out of rhyme
In [D]syncopated time
And the [C]dangling [G]conver[D]sation
And the [Em]super[D]ficial [C]sighs
Are the [C]borders of our
[G]lives

[Verse 3]
Yes, we [C]speak of [G]things that [D]matter
With [C]words that [G]must be [D]said
"Can a[C]nalysis [G]be wor[Am]thwhile?"
"Is the [G]theater really [G]dead?"
And how the [Em]room is softly [C]faded[Em]
And I [F]only kiss your shadow,
I [E]cannot feel your hand
You're a [D]stranger now unto me
Lost in the [C]dangling [G]conver[D]sation
And the [Em]super[D]ficial [C]sighs
In the [C]borders of our
[G]lives
