World At Large Uke tab by Modest Mouse

E
Ice-age heat wave, can't complain.
       B6
If the world's at large, why should I remain?
C#m
Walked away to another plan.
A
Gonna find another place, maybe one I can stand.
  E                            B6
I move on to another day, to a whole new town with a whole new way.
C#m
Went to the porch to have a thought.
A
Got to the door and again, I couldn't stop.
E
You don't know where and you don't know when.
        B6
But you still got your words and you got your friends.
C#m
Walk along to another day.
A
Work a little harder, work another way.

     E
Well uh-uh baby I ain't got no plan.
      B6
We'll float on maybe would you understand?
      C#m
Gonna float on maybe would you understand?
          A
Well I'll float on maybe would you understand?

    E
The days get shorter and the nights get cold.
   B6
I like the autumn but this place is getting old.
  C#m
I pack up my belongings and I head for the coast.
   A
It might not be a lot but I feel like I'm making the most.
    E
The day's get longer and the nights smell green.
  B6                                                            C#m
I guess it's not surprising but it's spring and I should leave.

A

  E
I like songs about drifters - books about the same.
     B6
They both seem to make me feel a little less insane.
C#m
Walked on off to another spot.
  A
I still haven't got anywhere that I want.
      E
Did I want love? Did I need to know?
    B6                                                  C#m
Why does it always feel like I'm caught in an undertow?

    E
The moths beat themselves to death against the lights.
B6
Adding their breeze to the summer nights.
C#m
Outside, water like air was great.
  A
I didn't know what I had that day.
E
Walk a little farther to another plan.
    B6                                           C#m
You said that you did, but you didn't understand.

A

  E
I know that starting over is not what life's all about.
       B6
But my thoughts were so loud, I couldn't hear my mouth.
   C#m
My thoughts were so loud, I couldn't hear my mouth.
   A
My thoughts were so loud.
