Hayes" To: roelbj@umich.edu Subject: Chords for Closed Down Here are the chords for Closed Down. capo 4th fret, chords named from capo Cadd9 x32033 G 320033 D xx0232 Dsus4 xx0233 Intro: Cadd9, G, Cadd9, G, Cadd9, G, D, Dsus4, D Cadd9 G I forgot why we started this Cadd9 G how the feelings will change to no longer resist Cadd9 G D Dsus4 D the distance that comes with all of those things that we miss Cadd9 G D G I remember the place where we first met Cadd9 G D G when we sat and we talked, 'til no one was left Cadd9 G when the bartender said: D G D "I'm sorry but I need my rest." Cadd9 G Cadd9 We're closed down, closed down G Got to go somewhere else Cadd9 G D Dsus4 D closed down, we took our hopes home to rest [same as above] In the same place, not on the same spot You cheat a little, I'll cheat a lot Convincing myself that I'm honest when I know that I'm not So you drown out your anger, drown out your fear when the shit hits the fan, somehow steer your way clear but this path keeps on twisting, year after year after year Chorus There's a car in the road with it's wheels turning stuck the driver he's cursing, he slams the door shut it's a quiet frustration that leads us down into this rut The headlights stream in, they light up your face I want to jump in my car and drive it away but the motor turns over, slowly it brings you to wake Chorus You can hear the ghosts making their rounds while the buildings are crumbling, they're walking the grounds we're tearing down what we made without making a sound So lets jump in that car, escape while we can from this drift that's become an avalanche I don't want to be buried with these ghosts who don't understand Chorus RHH
