                         Alphabet 


Capo:no capo

G                      Em                           Am      C
  late at night cloudy white will creep over my old house 
        G                  Em
and the chair where I once sat 
               Am                            C
someone new is there and he'll stare at that wall, and we're
G                 Em
  all parts of an alphabet 
Am7                         C
  we spell new words in new spots we're at 
G                          Em                        Am     C
  and the big, round, blue boat drifts around in the dark 
G                      Em                       Am      C
  when you feel like a jerk does it make you confused 
                     G                      Em
like how could you become as awesome as you are
                      Am      C
and still feel like a loser 
G                        Em
  when you feel ugly and petty 
Am7             C
  awkward and unsteady 
     G                         G                     Am          C
just try not to forget there's so many people who've liked you 
      G                          Em                       Am     C
and I hope that the art school enjoys your big drawing of ruin 
G                            Em                       Am        C
we've all got good things to do and it's good when we do them 
G                Em
  from Austin to Brooklyn 
Am7                          C
  they're all smart and good-lookin'
G                       Em
  we're all parts of an alphabet 
Am7                        C
  spell new words with new folks we met 
G                           Em                        Am     C
  and the big, round, blue boat drifts around in the dark
G                          Em                        Am     C
  and the big, round, blue boat drifts around in the dark 
         Am                         F
and they say that we'll drift for awhile until we die 
        D
and the sun hits a spiral, it's a combination lock 
Am                         F
  and I'm just hoping that I'll get it open 
               D                                                    G   Em  Am  C
and that these joys and frustrations are just turns in the combination
  G
