Emmy the Great - Exit night juliets theme

^ESomewhere there’s a country you remember from your youth On the ^Esurface of this country is the one they built on top of it. The ^Aadd9Highway leads to everything, Except for what they buried under^Eneath it. There is a ^Aadd9country made of telegrams and tailcoats, and nobody to ^Egrieve it.

But when the ^Esun is getting lower then the highway marks the graves, And the ^Etail-lights, they circle like the roses of an infinite bouqu^Aadd9et, And everybody ^Eleaves tail-lights for the ^Aadd9grey, Ghosts of railways and candlehold^Eers. And ^Aadd9oh oh oh oh oooooo, ooooo ooooo ooooo ^Eooooo,

There’s been a^Aadd9n accident a mile away from here, I heard the sound of sir^Eens, And they turned ^Aadd9back again and as they disappeared, I saw a trail beh^Eind them.

You say the ^F#mwind is up, it’s out collectin^C#mg lives, ^{F#m c#m} You say the ^F#mwind is up, it’s out collectin^C#mg lives, ^{F#m c#m} An exit ^Anight, ^B Is coming ^Ethrough,

Oh the ^Ewind is up, it’s moving like no wind I’ve ever known, And the ^Epage that I was reading was the first that had to go, But ^Aadd9still I kept on reading like the dead who have a memory of ^Eliving, Because the ^Aadd9wind is here to take the thing, I don’t think I am ready to b^Ee giving, And ^Aadd9Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thy Juliette? She ^Aadd9flew up with the table out the window, Now she’s mixing with th^Ee dead. Oh won’t yo^Aadd9u make her go away I am not ready for her yet, Add9 E Oh make her go away, I am not ready, I’m not ready for her yet. And now the ^F#mwind is up, it’s out collectin^C#mg lives, ^{F#m c#m} You say the ^F#mwind is up, it’s out collectin^C#mg lives, ^{F#m c#m} An exit ^Aadd9night ^B is coming tru^Ee, An exit ^Aadd9night, is coming ^Ethrough, Exit ^Aadd9night, has come for ^Eyou, Oh exit ^F#mlight, exit ^Bmoon, Tell me ^F#mwhy ^B Why so ^Esoon? I don’^Aadd9t know. ^E I don’^Aadd9t know. ^E Oooooo oo^Aadd9ooo. Ooooo ^Eooooo.

^EAnd o, Go to ^Aadd9sleep, To^Emorrow,

Would ^C#mbe, I will ^F#mread to ^Byour ^Ememory, Fly a^Eway, There’s n^Aadd9o need To ^Eworry, I will ^C#mread, in^F#mto your ^B memo^Ery, ^ELeave your brain.
