Your New Twin Sized Bed
Death Cab For Cutie
Drop D
Capo 1
Intro: / D - A - / G - - - / x2
D (½) A (½) G Bm (½) A (½) G
You look so defeated lying there in your new twin size bed
D (½) A (½) G Bm (½) A (½) G
With a single pillow underneath your single head
D (½) A (½) G Bm (½) A (½) G
I guess you decided that that old queen was more space than you would need
D (½) A (½) G Bm (½) A (½) G
Now it's in the alley behind your apartment with a sign that says free
Em Gm6 D (½) A (½) G
And I hope you have more luck with this than me
D (½) A (½) G Bm (½) A (½) G
You used to think that someone would come along.
D (½) A (½) G Bm (½) A (½) G
And lay beside you in a space that they belong.
D (½) A (½) G Bm (½) A (½) G
But the other side of the mattress and box springs stayed like new.
D (½) A (½) G Bm (½) A (½) G
And what's the point of holding onto what never gets used?
Em Gm6 D (½) A (½) G
Other than a sick desire for self-abuse.
Bridge:
D Gmaj7 Bm D
And I try not to worry, but you've got me terrified
D/F# Bm
It's like your in some kind of hurry
Em G (½) Gm6 (½)
To say goodbye, say goodbye, to say goodbye
/ D - A - / G - - - / x2
D (½) A (½) G Bm (½) A (½) G
You look so defeated lying there in your new twin size bed
D (½) A (½) G
You look so defeated lying there in your new twin size bed
End on D
