The Shins - Saint Simon Chords

0Verse:
      Am0        E1              G2
1After all these implements and texts designed by
D3                C4                D5
2intellects we're vexed to find evidently there's
      G6
3still so much that hides.
    Am7         E8               G9
4And though the saints dub us divine in ancient
D10                  C11            D12
5fading lines their sentiment is just as hard to
G13
6pluck from the vine.

8Chorus:
F14                       D15
9I'll try hard not to pretend
F16                      D17          E18
10allow myself no mock defense as I
11
12step into the night.

14Verse:
Am19    E20                G21                D22
15Since I don't have the time nor mind to figure
        C23                   D24
16out the nursery rhymes that helped us out in
       G25
17making sense of our lives
Am26            E27                G28        D29
18The cruel, uneventful state of apathy releases me
  C30              D31                 G32
19I value them but I won't cry every time one's
20
21wiped out.

23Chorus:
F33                         D34

F35                       D36         E37
25batten down to fare the wind
F38                      D39
26rid my head of this pretense
F40                      D41           E42
27allow myself no mock defense as I
