Soul Meets Body

by Death Cab For Cutie

Thanks to Gene for teaching me how to do this.

-3” -3” 5 -4 4 4 3 3 2
I want to live where soul meets body

-3” -3” 5 -4 4 3 6 5 5 -4
And let the sun wrap its arms around me

4 -3” -3” 5 4 4 4 4 3 3 3 2
And bathe my skin in water coo-l and cleansing

-1 -4 -4 -4 5 -5 5-4 -4 -3”
And feel, feel what its like t-o be new

-3” -3” 5 -4 4 4 4 3 3 2
Cause in my head there’s a greyhound station

-3” -3” -3” 5 -4 -3” 6 5 5 5 5 -4
Where I send my thoughts to far off destinations

4 -3” -3” -3” 5 -4 4 4 3 3 3
So they may have a chance of finding a place

2 -1 -4 5 -5 5 -4 -3”
where they’re far more suited than here

8 8 8 8 -8 -7
ba da ba da ba ba

-7 7 -7 -6 -6 -6 -6 -7
da ba da ba ba da ba ba

6 -8 -7 -6 -6 -6 -6
Ba da ba ba ba da ba

-7 -6 -6 6 5
Ba da ba da ba

-3” -3” 5 -4 4 4 3 3 2
I cannot guess what we'll discover

-3” -3” 5 -4 4 3 6 5 5 5 -4
we turn the dirt with our palms cupped like shovels

4 4 -3” -3” -3” 5 -4 4 4 3 3 3 2
But I know our filthy hands can wash one another’s

-1 -4 5 -5 5 -4 -4 -3”
And not one speck wi-ll remain

8 8 8 8 -8 -7 -7
And I do believe it’s true

-7 7 7 -6 -6 -6 -6 -6 -7 6
That there are roads left in both of our shoes

6 7 -7 -6 -6 -6 -6
But if the silence takes you

6 6 -7 -6 -6 6 5
Then I hope it takes me too

5 8 8 8 8 -8 -7
So brown eyes I hold you near

-7 7 -7 -6 -6 -6 -6 -6 -7 6
Cause you’re the only song I want to hear

6 7 -7 -6 -6 -6 -6 6 -7 -6 -6 6 5
A melody softly soaring through my atmosphere

7 -6 7 -8 8
Where soul meets body (x2)
