Parquet Courts - Human Performance Chords
[Verse 1]
B F#m E D
I know exactly where I was when I first saw you the way I see you now,
A B F#m
through these eyes waiting to retry. Those pristine days, I recall so fondly.
E D A
So few are trials when a life isn't lonely, and now if only.
B F#m E D
I'd never felt it, I'd never heard it. I know I loved you, did I even deserve it
A B F#m
when you returned it? There's no suspicion, no hesitation.
E B
Believing through the eyes of sore adoration
[Chorus]
A F#m A F#m
Witness and know Fracture and hurt
A E A D
Eyes in the fire Blink unrehearsed
A B A F#m
Shield like a house Closing it's doors
A E A D
Curved in the dark Rinses of yours
F#m
[Verse 2]
B F#m E D
Ashtray is crowded, bottle is empty. No music plays and nothing moves without drifting
A B F#m
into a memory. Busy apartment, no room for grieving.
E D A
Sink full of dishes and no trouble believing that you are leaving.
B F#m E B
Mid-sentence tremors, mind at it's weakest. One way of shaking off the thoughts that it sleeps with.
[Chorus]
A F#m A F#m
Witness and know Fracture and hurt
A E A D
Eyes in the fire Blink unrehearsed
A B A F#m
Shield like a house Closing it's doors
A E A D
Curved in the dark Rinses of yours
F#m

[Verse 3]
B F#m
In walks the darkness I pitch without you.
E D
Asks me; "Do I realize what I'd done and who I'd done to?"
A B F#m
Indeed, I do know. It never leaves me, just visits less often.
E D A
It isn't gone and I won't feel it's grip soften without a coffin.
B F#m E B
Breathing beside me, feeling it's warmness, phantom affection gives a human performance.
[Chorus]
A F#m A F#m
Witness and know Fracture and hurt
A E A D
Eyes in the fire Blink unrehearsed
A B A F#m
Shield like a house Closing it's doors
A E A D
Curved in the dark Rinses of yours
[Outro]
