Chords Used:
[Fadd9] [F] [C] [G] [Am]
e|--3----1---3----3----0---|
B|--1----1---1----0----1---|
G|--2----2---0----0----2---|
D|--3----3---2----0----2---|
A|--3----3---3----2----0---|
E|--1----1--------3--------|
Tips:
When picking the Fadd9, I just use my thumb on the 6th string and my index, middle &
pinky fingers for the
other 3 notes.
This also sounds pretty good when strummed - or alternating between picking (intro
pattern) and strumming.
If strumming the verse you can get away with just a regular F (133211)
Obviously the chords are relative to the capo (the album recording is in G)

"It's a c[C]old day for [Fadd9]September", was [C]all I thought to[Fadd9] say
When I [C]saw you on the [Fadd9]street the [G]other day[Fadd9].[G]
I knew [C]something changed be[Fadd9]tween us, all the t[C]alk we made was [Fadd9]small
But what [C]do you say to [Fadd9]someone when they've h[C]eard you say it [Fadd9]all?[G]
It's an [Am]awkward conversa[G]tion in a[Fadd9] most peculiar [G]way
F C G N.C
How did we get from saying "I love you" to "I'll see you around someday"?
REPEAT INTRO
It [C]seemed like only [Fadd9]days ago we h[C]ad so much to[Fadd9] say
Did we [C]take it all for [Fadd9]granted, did it [G]all get [C]thrown a[Fadd9]way?[G]
"It [C]calls for rain this [Fadd9]afternoon", you f[C]inally r[Fadd9]eplied
And there was s[C]uch a stuttering [Fadd9]silence that I [C]felt my mouth go [Fadd9]dry[G]
So we'll just [Am]talk about the wea[G]ther 'cause there's n[F]ot much more to [G]say
How did we [F]get from saying "I [C]love you" to "I'll [G]see you around some[C]day"?
F C G N.C
How did we get from saying "I love you" to "I'll see you around someday"?
REPEAT INTRO
Has [F]all the ice been [C]broken? All our [G]surfaces been [C]scratched
Have [F]all the words been s[C]poken? Have we f[G]inally met our m[C]atch?
'cause [G]It's an [Am]awkward conversa[G]tion in a [F]most peculiar [G]way
How did we [F]get from saying "I [C]love you" to "I'll [G]see you around some[C]day"?
How did we [F]get from saying "I [C]love you" to "I'll [G]see you around some[C]day"?
