Aside

[G], [D] , [C] x2

[G]Measure me in metered lines
And on[Bm]e decisive stare
The ti[D]me it takes to get from here to [C]there
My r[G]ibs that show through t-shirts
And these sho[Bm]es I got for free
I'm uncon[D]soled
I'm lon[C]ely, I am
So muc[D]h better than I [C]used t[Bm]o be     [A]

[G], [D], [C] x2

Same chords for second verse

Terrified of telephones
And shopping malls and knives
Drowning in the pools of other lives
Rely a bit too heavily
On alcohol and irony
Get clobbered on
By courtesy
In l[D]ove with love and l[C]ousy poetr[Bm]y            [A]

[G]And I'm leaning on this b[C]roken fence

Between p[Em]ast and present ten[C]se
And I'm los[G]ing all those s[C]tupid games
That I sw[Em]ore I'd never pl[C]ay
But it almo[Em]st fee[D]ls oka[G]y       [D]                 [C]                     [G]                             [D]                                       [C]

[Bm]Circumnavigate this bod[D]y
[Em]Of wonder and [D]uncertain[C]ty
[Bm]Armed with every precious failu[D]re
[Em]And amateu[D]r cartograp[C]hy

I'm breathing deep before
I sp[D]read those ma[C]ps out on my bedroom f[Bm]loor     [A]

[G]And I'm leaning on this b[C]roken fence

Between p[Em]ast and present ten[C]se
And I'm los[G]ing all those s[C]tupid games
That I sw[Em]ore I'd never pl[C]ay
But it feel[Em]s okay[D]    And I'm lea[G]ving wit[D]h goodbye [C]
[G]And I'm losing[D] but I'l[C]l try
[Em]With the last wa[D]ys left
[Em]To remember sing[D]
[Em]My imperfect off[D]ering     [G]

Great song from an equally great movie (Wedding Crashers), and extremely simple!
