Then play these chords:

^CSince that ^Gtime we ^Cmeant to ^Gsay much more Unsaid things begin to take their toll, After school we shovel through the snow Drive upstate in silence in the cold,

^Cadd9You can re^Emmind me^D/F# of it ^Cadd9 That I was ^Emlazy and tired^D/F#, ^Cadd9 Em D/f# Cadd9 You can work all your life as I'm not a^Emfraid of ^D/F#you anymo^Cadd9re ^G ^D/F# ^Cadd9 ^G ^D/F#

Back to verse: If I loved you oh a long time, I don't know If I can't recall the last time you told me so, Here in this house in Pittsfield The ghost of our grandmother works at the sewing machine post, Hiding the bills in the kitchen, on the floor And my sister lost her best friend in the Persian Gulf War, There was a flood in the bathroom last May And you kicked at the pipes when it rattled oh the river it made.

^CStand there, ^Gtell me ^Cthat I^G'm of no ^Cuse Things unspoken break us if we share There's still time to wash the kitchen floor On your knees, the bath, the sink once more. You can remind me, that I was tired You can work late, and give yourself honor. Now that I'm older, wiser and working less I don't regret, having left the place a mess

^Cadd9You can ^Emremind me^D/F#, ^Cadd9 that I was ^Emlazy and tired^D/F# ^Cadd9 You can ^Emrecall your l^D/F#ife as ^Cadd9 I'm not ^Emafraid of y^D/F#ou, anym^Core^G ^C ^G Anymo^Cre ^G ^C ^G ^C ^G ^C ^G ^C ^G ^C ^G ^D/F#
