This Is The Song by Punch Brothers 




            This Is The Song






Intro -- Dm

Dm                       F
This is the song where I listen

A#                       G
This is the song where I sit still

  Dm                                     F
I called the dogs off all the things I’m missing

       A#
And to everyone but you before I set sail


       G          D#         A#
I said good luck, good luck, good luck

          C/G
These are tough times

          D#
But we’ll get by

     A#
Good luck


Dm                         F
This is the song where you speak up

A#                             G
This is the song where you get moving

    Dm                            F
You cried some trouble out into a tea cup

       A#
And to me but no-one else before you threw it



         G          D#         A#
You said good luck, good luck, good luck

          C/G
These are tough times 

          D#
But we’ll get by

     A#
Good luck


Dm F A# G (4 times)


Dm                            F
I put ashore in front of our apartment

    A#                                       G
And watched you comb the stoop for shards of porcelain

     Dm                                         F
Satisfied that there were none that broke the silence

          A#
And after this I promise not to interrupt again


      Dm                       F
Cause this is the song where I listen

A#                       G
This is the song where I sit still

  Dm                                     F
Until our heartbeats drown out the clock ticking

        A#
And the song is just I love you and always will


G          D#         A#
Good luck, good luck, good luck

          C/G
these are tough times

          D#
But We’ll get by

     A#
Good luck 

          C/G
these are tough times

          D#
But We’ll get by

     A#
Good luck 

          C/G
these are tough times

          D#
But We’ll get by

     A#
Good luck

version 3








Starts on: Dm

The entire verse is basically a D minor chord played over different bass notes. If 
you listen closely, you can hear Chris Thile changing the bass note on his 
mandolin with each chord change, but its always over a Dm. When the song develops 
later, it sounds more complicated, but its the same basic idea. 

The chorus is pretty simple.

Dm                                  Dm/C
This is the song where I listen

Dm/Bb                             Dm/G
This is the song where I sit still

  Dm                                              Dm/C 
I called the dogs off all the things I’m missing

    Dm/ Bb                                  Dm/G
And to everyone but you before I set sail


       Gm          Eb               Bb
I said good luck, good luck, good luck

          C
These are tough times

          Eb
But we’ll get by

     Bb
Good luck


Dm/G                              Dm7/ C
This is the song where you speak up

Dm/Bb                             Dm/ G
This is the song where you get moving

    Dm/G                               Dm/C
You cried some trouble out into a tea cup

       Dm/Bb                            Dm/G
And to me but no-one else before you threw it
