Berikut ini lirik dan chord lagu "Brand New Colony" oleh Benjamin Gibbard:
[Verse]
D
I'll be the grapes fermented,
A Bm
Bottled and served with the table set
G
in my finest suit like a perfect gentlemen
D
I'll be the fire escape that's
A Bm
bolted to the ancient brick
G
Where you will sit and contemplate your day
D A Bm G G Em
[Verse 2]
D
I'll be the waterwings that
A Bm
save you if you start drowning
G
In an open tab when your judgement's on the brink
D
I'll be the phonograph that
A Bm
plays your favorite albums back
G
as your lying there drifting off to sleep
Em
Drifting off to sleep...
D
I'll be the platform shoes and
A Bm
undo what heredity's done to you
G
You won't have to strain to look into my eyes
D
I'll be your winter coat
A Bm
buttoned and zipped straight to the throat
G
With the collar up so you won't catch a cold
[Bridge]
Bm G
D
I want to take you far from the cynics in this town
Bm
And kiss you on the mouth
Bm G
We'll cut out bodies free from the tethers of this scene,
D Bm
Start a brand new colony
Bm
Where everything will change,
G D Bm
We'll give ourselves new names identities erased
Bm G
The sun will heat the grounds
D
Under our bare feet in this brand new colony,
Em
this brand new colony
[Outro]
Bm G D A
Everything will change
Bm G D A
Bm G D A
Everything will change
