Things get a little weird with the last chorus, but to be honest, it sounds just as good 
with the normal chorus chords.


[Verse 1]

(mostly palm muted)


walkin outside

 labyrinthian 

over
cracks along under the trees
        
i know this to

wn grounded in

 a compass
cardinal landing in the dogwood

i keep goin ov

er it over &am

p; over
my steps iterate my shame
         
how come every

 outcome's suc

h a comedown
lately afternoon with the shades drawn down

i kept sayin i

 just wanted t

o see you
sayin what's wrong with that?
        
needle shakin 

outlines in a 

compass
every outcome's such a comedown


[Chorus]

(strum the first  upwards)


i knew it when

 i

saw it
      
so i did just 

         
what i wanted
    
so i go throug

h with this
              
i knew happine


ss when i saw 

it


[Verse 2]

(same deal with palm muting)


i saw your boy

friend at the 

port authority
that's a sort of fucked up place
           
well so i aver


ted my stride 

on a quick one
he's coming back from goin over your place, huh

i feel like we

 could forget 

about it
i feel like i could mellow out
         
i don't feel u

ndone in a big

 way
there's nothing really bad to be upset about, well

just when i th

ought i was ge

tting better i
woke up on the ground
     
an appointment

 or a disappoi

ntment
any outcome's such a comedown


[Chorus 2]

         
as if i needed

    
 a reminder
      
that i do only

        
 what i wanna
     
so i go throug

h with this


[Verse 3]

(palm mute and mostly stick to the root notes)


walkin out in 

the nighttime 

springtime
needling my way home

i saw leah on 

the bus a few 

months ago
              
i saw some old

              
 friends at he

     
r funeral

my steps keep 

splitting my g

rief through t

hese

(Some weird  that looks like: E|-0-9-11-11-x-x-|)

solipsistic moods

i should call 

my parents whe

n i think of t

hem
i should tell my friends when i love them

maybe i should

've got out a 

bit more
when you guys where still in town

but i got too 

caught up in m

y own shit
that's how every outcome's such a comedown


[Final Chorus]

         
i knew it when

   
 i saw it
      
so i did just 

         
what i wanted

so i go

(  
through with t

   
his i knew hap

         
piness

(  
when i saw it
