Oslo
The Little Hands of Asphalt
C G
It was a moment for the books
Am
The calendar looked
F C
just like the novels we had only skimmed through.
C G
So I circled out the dates
Am
that I'll skillfully waste.
F C
For now that's going to have to do.
C G
It was on the brightest summer day
Am
after we swam in the lake,
F C
that you told me our luck is gonna end.
C G
So we better be concerned.
Am
We're where the subway turns.
F Dm
We need a camera and some cash to spend.
Ref:
Dm G
And our picturesque blame;
Am Em
we'll put it in IKEA-frames.
Dm G
Up on the wall it looks profound,
Am F
and reminds us Oslo is a small, small town.
So it's night and we dive into a basement that's alive
with stupidity that melts into pairs.
But your good intent was clear when you split and left me here
to regret I left my high horse upstairs.
And with the way I say goodbye
I could have ruined everything.
But I'll be seeing you around
because Oslo is a small, small town.
I'm keeping myself calm
if just for the sake of staying warm.
So with my eyes fixed on the ground
I admitted Oslo is a small, small town
