Clark Gable Tab

by Postal Service


I thought that this was a relatively easy song to get chords for, so i just tabbed it up. Enjoy.


VERSE


I was waiting for a cross-town train in the

                                 
london underground when it struck me

 
that I've been waiting since birth to find a

                                      
love that would look and sound like a movie


so I changed my plans I rented a camera and

                       
a van and then I called you

                      
"I need you to pretend that we are in love

                      
again." and you agreed too



CHORUS

                           
I want so badly to believe that "there is truth,

             
that love is real"

                         
and I want life in every word to the extent

             
that it's absurd


Inst:   (repeated)


Same thing for the rest of the song. Lyrics:


I greased the lens and framed the shot using
a friend as my stand-in
the script it called for rain but it was clear
that day so we faked it
the marker snapped and I yelled "quiet on
the set" and then called "action!"
and I kissed you in a style clark gable would
have admired (i thought it classic)

I want so badly to believe that "there is truth,
that love is real"
and I want life in every word to the extent
that it's absurd
i know you're wise beyond your years, but
do you ever get the Feel
that your perfect verse is just a lie
you tell yourself to help you get by
