Adventures In Solitude by New Pornographers
Adventures In Solitude
C D G C C D G
[G] C D
Balancing on one wounded wing
G C
Circling the edge of the never ending
C D G [G]
The best of the vanished marvels have gathered inside your door
C D
More than begin, but less than forget
G C
But spirit born from the not happened yet
C D G [G]
Gathering there to pay off a debt brought back from the wars
C D G C
We thought we lost you We thought we lost you
C D G [G]
We thought we lost you Welcome back
C D G [G]
C D
Sleeping for years pick through what is left
G C
Through the pieces that fell and rose from the depth
C D G [G]
From the rain water well deep as a secret nobody knows
C D
Less than forget but more than begun
G C
These adventures in solitude never done
C D G [G]
To the names of our wounds we send the same blood back from the wars
C D G C
We thought we lost you We thought we lost you
C D G [G]
We thought we lost you It will all come back
C D G C C D G [G]
Bm Em D
I know you want to run far away from one more,
C G
and that it’s coming at a bad time
Bm Em D C
some cold place, some countless ways
C G
For all we know
Bm Em D
I know you need to breathe through come back, come to
C G
but it’s coming at a bad time
Bm Em D
Some how a watch from the tangle of days
C G
For all we know
C D G C C D G [G]
Bm Em D
I know you want to run far away from one more,
C G
and that it’s coming at a bad time
Bm Em D C
some cold race, some countless ways
C G
For all we know
Bm Em D
I know you want to breathe through come back, come to
C G
but it’s coming at a bad time
Bm Em D
old scarred face from survivor's guilt
C G
For all we know
Extra notes:
If you play the piano, I think the verses use C 2nd inversion,
D 2nd inversion, and G 1st inversion. Start with middle C in the
middle and it should fall into place.
Someone’s quietly plucking a guitar in the intro and
first verse (that I can hear), and here’s what s/he’s playing.
