Open Ended Life – The Avett Brothers G C Pack a change of clothes and a pillow G for the road for when you drift off C Put the sketches and the notes in the box G labeled 'burn with furniture' Am We will watch the fire burn D G the whole entire house we built down to ashes Am D From the mirror we'll admire how the flame quickly retires Am D We won't waste a long goodbye on the smoke or foolish lies G that finally passed us Am D I was taught to keep an open-ended life G And never trap myself in nothing G C Let's find something new to talk about G I'm tired of talkin' about myself C I spent my whole life talkin' to convince G everyone that I was something else [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/t/the-avett-brothers/371101.html ] Am And the part that kinda hurts is D G I think it finally worked and now I'm leaving Am D I get the feeling things have changed But the mystery to me Am D is where and when along the way Did anyone decide G that they believed me Am D I was taught to keep an open-ended life G And never trap myself in nothing Am D I was told to keep an open-ended life G To never trap yourself in nothing G C When we settle down in another nowhere town G let's tell our neighbors C We won't be here long and we'll be quiet G but don't go askin' any favors Am D I can't stand the unexpected uninvited visits from G too many strangers Am D My trust has dwindled down and I can leave just as abruptly G as I came here Am D I was taught to keep an open-ended life G And never trap myself in nothing Am D I was taught to keep an open-ended life G To never trap yourself in nothing Am D I was taught to keep an open-ended life G And never trap myself in nothing  |
