Tiny Vessels – Death Cab for Cutie
Em C/D Em This is the moment that you know Am C/D Em That you told her that you loved her but you don't. G Em You touch her skin and then you think C Am Em That she is beautiful but she don't mean a thing to me. C Am Em Yeah, she is beautiful but she don't mean a thing to me. Em C/D Em I spent two weeks in Silverlake Am Em The California sun cascading down my face G Em There was a girl with light brown streaks C Am Em And she was beautiful but she didn't mean a thing to me. C Am Em Yeah she was beautiful but she didn't mean a thing to me. [Verse] Am C A7 Am I wanted to believe in all the words that i was speaking C G D As we moved together in the dark Am Em And all the friends that i was telling Am C And all the playful misspellings Em C D And every bite i gave you left a mark Am C A7 Tiny vessels oozed into your neck Am And formed the bruises G Em D That you said you didn't want to fade Am Am C Em But they did and so did i that day Em C/D All i see are dark grey clouds Am C/D Em In the distance moving closer with every hour G Em So when you ask "was something wrong?" C That i think "you're damn right there is, Am Em but we can't talk about it now. Am C No, we can't talk about it now." [Outro](x2) Em C/D Em So one last touch and then you'll go Am C/D Em And we'll pretend that it meant something so much more Am Em But it was vile, and it was cheap C Am Em And you are beautiful but you don't mean a thing to me C Am Em Yeah you are beautiful but you don't mean a thing to me

Other Notes
Weird chromatic run in the big section. It’s cool. I’ll show you it.
