Staring Out The Window At Your Old Apartment by Jeff Rosenstock
Staring Out The Window At Your Old Apartment
Tuning:E A D G B E
Capo:no capo
Personally I use barre chords for everything except the chorus and just pick the
octaves (high then low) in
the intro and early verses. Note the variation in the final chorus.
[Intro]
G B C Am (x2)
[Verse 1]
G B C Am
Someone hung a decorative surfboard
G B C Am
Up where your records and movies belong
G B C Am
This light makes it nearly impossible
Em B C Am
To see if they fixed all the cracks in the wall
[Chorus]
G Em
Staring out the window at your old apartment
Am D
Imagining the old you stumbling through
G Em
tacky renovations That the landlord wanted
Am D
to cash in on the boom
G C
And you don't know where to go now
G C
You've got nowhere to go now
[Verse 2]
G B C Am
I wish you'd come down and meet me here
G B C Am
I'm gridlocked I'm not going anywhere
G B C Am
I've had a bad year
[Chorus]
G Em
Staring out the window at your old apartment
Am D
Imagining the old you stumbling through
G Em
tacky renovations That the landlord wanted
Am D
to cash in on the boom
[Post-Chorus]
(I mix this up a bit with some picking and palm muting to crescendo)
G C
And you don't know where to go now
G C
You've got nowhere to go now
G C
You don't know where to go now
G C
You've got nowhere to go now
G C
You don't know where to go now
G C
You've got nowhere to go now
[Bridge]
Em B C Am
The city don't care if you live or die
Em B C Am
It's just gonna grow and it doesn't care why
Em B C Am
you're tired of kicking and fighting through life
Em B C Am
And left me alone on this cold winter night just
[Chorus]
(variation)
G Em
Staring out the window at your old apartment
Am D
Imagining the old you stumbling through
B Em
tacky renovations That the landlord wanted
Am D
to cash in on the boom
[Post-Chorus]
G Cmaj7
And you don't know where to go now
G Cmaj7
You've got nowhere to go now
G Cmaj7
You've got nowhere to go now
G Cma7
You don't know where to go now
End on G
