VERSE 1
C
Hold on, there's a hole in my heart
Dm
Everyone can see right through me
(Em) F
It goes all the way to the waves
G F G
Where my love she tried to wash it away
C
See we break for the summers so she can find lovers
Dm
She thinks that they're bottles of wine
(Em) F
They make you dinner and they sing you to sleep
G F G
But by the morning find the bottle is empty
Am
'Cause she never gives it the time
Dm
Every bottle she finds, they don't compare
(Em) F
To the ones she left behind; There is never a note
G F G
So she waits for me to come back home
CHORUS 1
C
I'm looking for a dead end song
Dm
You wish that smoke could change its color
F
I love it when you talk so much
G F
And act like nothing went wrong
G C
I'm looking for a dead end song
Dm
We sit and find flaws in everyone
F
I want to keep you by my side
G
Holding off tidal waves
VERSE 2
C
"Mint Car" is keeping us warm
Dm
She lays crossed upon the bed
(Em) F
We are puzzles making shapes with our hands
G F G
I take my finger, turn it into a pen

Am
Then I run my hand down your spine
Dm
You guess to write something profound, Something like:
(Em)
"Our love will last 'til we die"
F
I say "you're good at this game"
G
but what I really wrote is
F G
How I've yet to be saved
CHORUS 2
C
I'm looking for a dead end song
Dm
You wish that smoke could change its color
F
I love it when you talk so much
G F
And act like nothing went wrong
G C
I'm looking for a dead end song
Dm
We sit and find flaws in everyone
F
I want to keep you by my side
G
Holding off tidal waves
G
REFRAIN
Am Em
I'm searching for a dead end song
Am Em
You wish that smoke could change its color
Dm G
I wanna get you right by my side
Am Em
I'm searching for a dead end song
Am Em
We sit and find flaws in everyone
Dm G
I want to keep you right by my side
CHORUS 3

We sit and find flaws in everyone

Holding off tidal waves
Fade to end
