Weakerthans - A New Name for Everything Tabbed by Dan Winchester Intro: G Em D C G Em When the bus-shelter windows and napkin-dispensers surprise D C with distorted reflections, it's never the someone you're hoping to recognize. G Em When the rent is too high living here between reasons to live, D C and you can't sleep alone, and your memories groan, and the borders of night start to give. C D G C When you can't save C D cash or conviction; you're broke and you're breaking-a G C tired shoelace or a wave. C D G So long past, past-due. A new name for everything. G D C C G Em When the one-ways collude with the map that you folded wrong, D C and the route you abandoned is always the path that you probably should be upon. G Em When the bottle-cap ashtrays and intimate's ears are all full D C with results of your breath, and the threads of your fear are unfurled with the tiniest pull. C D G C One more time, try. C D Stand with your hands in your pockets and stare at the G C smudge on a newspaper sky, C D G and ask it to rain a new name for everything. G D C C Em D C D C Fire every phrase. They don't want to work for us anymore. Em D C D C Dot and Dash our days. Make your face the flag of a semaphore. G Em D C G Em D C C D G C All you won't show. C D The boxes you brought here and never unpacked are still G C patiently waiting to go. C D So put on those clothes you never grew into, and G C smile like you mean it for once. C D G If you come back, bring a new name for everything. G D C C x4 End on G
