"Everyone Moves Away"
   by the posies

From: John Waclo (johncw@nauticom.net)

Sounds best when played on a 12-string acoustic guitar.

Intro:  Let notes ring...

D Chord:     E------------2---------2---
             B---------3-----3------3---
             G------2-----------2---2---
             D---0------------------0---
             A--------------------------
             E--------------------------

          D   Db/D       Am                    E7
Please forgive, for they know not what they've done
            Gm                 D               A    Asus   A7
And if they did, they'd surely resurrect their trust
      D               Db/D          Am              E7
Promises were made to break and the family kept its end
             Gm         D
And now your answer, my friend
   Gm             D                A    Asus   A7
Is blowing in one head and out the other
             G        D
But you will find yourself
         G             D
You will recognize and realize
G             D        F#
Even when you can't forget
    Bm                    A/Bm               Ab/Bm                   E7
The times they tried you, things denied you, inside the big nameless house
           G               D    G               D   Db/D   Bm   A7
>From which everyone moves away, everyone moves away
        D   Db/D    Am                E7
Growing up       in severed states of mind
    Gm              D               A    Asus   A7
Can cause you to go blind more than twice
              D    Db/D       Am                E7
And now we're hurt     by the words we've never said
    Gm               D
The wounds you never bled
     Gm             D                A    Asus   A7
Just aggravate your head until their gone
             G        D
But you will like yourself
         G          D
You will verify and vocalize
G             D        F#
Even when you can't forget
     Bm                   A/Bm               Ab/Bm                   E7
That when you stayed you, they betrayed you, inside the big nameless house
           G              D F#    G               D   Db/D   Bm   A7
>From which everyone moves away,   everyone moves away
A7           D                 A7              D
Try to wipe away the traces of people, places, childhood spaces
Bm               F#               G                A7
Etched upon your memory, like the way that we were raised
           D    Db/D          Am              E7
In our backyard       we were left no time to think
    Gm                   D             A    Asus   A7
The blood that turned to ink spelled neglect
               D    Db/D         Am           E7
Now there's no sun       and the grass is overgrown
    Gm                  D       Gm        D                  A    Asus   A7
The sacred seed they've sown is utterly alone and scared to death
             G        D
But you will free yourself
         G                D
You will cut the cord and cauterize
    G           D       F#
And if you ever feel an urge
   Bm                   A/Bm
To look behind you, let this remind you
   Ab/Bm                    E7
We both grew up in the same house
           G               D F#    G               D F#
>From which everyone moves away,    everyone moves away
G        D      G        D
Everyone moves, everyone moves
G               D    Db/D     D
Everyone moves away
