Song: Anchorless Artist: The Weakerthans D B A B D B They called here to tell me D B That you’re finally dying D B A G Thru a veil of childish cries Southern Manitoba Prairies pulling at the Pant-leg of your bad disguise G So why were you so D A G Anchorless D A G A boat abandoned in some backyard Anchorless The small town that you lived and died in D B A B Shoebox full of photos Found a grainy mirror Sunken cheeks and slender hands Grocery lists and carbon Copied letters offer Silence for my small demands Hey how’d you get so Anchorless A boat abandoned in some backyard Anchorless The small town that you lived and died in D A G Got an armchair from your family home Got your p.g. wodehouse novels and your telephone Got your plates and stainless steel Got that way of never saying what you really feel Anchorless A boat abandoned in some backyard Anchorless The small town that you lived and died in D C# B A G Don’t want to live and die here Don’t want to live and die here were we’re Anchorless Anchorless Anchorless The small towns that we live and die in D B A G (until fade out)
