Exile Tab

The song is about heartbreak and betrayal by a former lover. It describes seeing the ex with a new person, not feeling like the ex's home anymore, and being in exile from what was once their town together. The chorus repeats that the situation seems familiar and the singer didn't like the ending. The bridge further explores themes of lack of communication and warning signs.

exile (feat Bon Iver) by Taylor Swift

Capo 6

VERSE 1:

INTRO
C Am C Am

VERSE 1:
C
I can see you standing honey
Am
With his arms around your body
C Am
Laughing but the joke's not funny at all
C
And it took you five whole minutes
Am
To pack us up and leave me with it
C Am
Holding all this love out here in the hall

CHORUS:
Fsus4 Gsus4 Am
I think I've seen this film before
​ Gsus4
And I didn't like the ending
Fsus4 Gsus4 Am
You're not my homeland anymore
​Gsus4 Fsus4
So what am I defending now?
​Gsus4 Am C
You were my town, now I'm in exile seeing you out
Fsus4 Gsus4 Am
I think I've seen this film before
C Am C Am
Ooo ooo oooo

VERSE 2:
C
I can see you staring honey
Am
Like he's just your understudy
C Am
Like you'd get your knuckles bloody for me
C
Second, third, and hundredth chances
Am
Balancing on breaking branches
C Am
Those eyes add insult to injury

CHORUS:
Fsus4 Gsus4 Am
I think I've seen this film before
​Gsus4
And I didn't like the ending
Fsus4 Gsus4 Am
I'm not your problem anymore
​Gsus4 Fsus4
So who am I offending now?
​Gsus4 Am C
You were my crown, now I'm in exile seeing you out
Fsus4 Gsus4 Am
I think I've seen this film before
​ Gsus4 C
So I'm leaving out the side door

BRIDGE:
Am Gsus4
So step right out, there is no amount
​Fsus4
Of crying I can do for you
​C Am
All this time we always walked a very thin line
​ Gsus4
You didn't even hear me out (Didn't even hear me out)
​ Fsus4
You never gave a warning sign (I gave so many signs)
​C
All this time,
Am
I never learned to read your mind (Never learned to read my mind)
Gsus4
I couldn't turn things around (You never turned things around)
​Fsus4 C
Cause you never gave a warning sign (I gave so many signs)
​ Am Gsus4
So many signs, so many signs
Fsus4
I didn't even see the signs

CHORUS:
Fsus4 Gsus4 Am
I think I've seen this film before
​ Gsus4
And I didn't like the ending
Fsus4 Gsus4 Am
You're not my homeland anymore
​Gsus4 Fsus4
So what am I defending now?
​Gsus4 Am C
You were my town, now I'm in exile seeing you out
Fsus4 Gsus4 Am
I think I've seen this film before
​ Gsus4 C
So I'm leaving out the side door

BRIDGE:
Am Gsus4
So step right out, there is no amount

Of crying I can do for you

All this time we always walked a very thin line

You didn't even hear me out (Didn't even hear me out)
​ Fsus4
You never gave a warning sign (I gave so many signs)
​C
All this time,
​Am
I never learned to read your mind (Never learned to read my mind)
Gsus4
I couldn't turn things around (You never turned things around)
​Fsus4
Cause you never gave a warning sign (I gave so many signs)
C
All this time,
Am
I never learned to read your mind (So many signs)

I couldn't turn things around (So many signs)
Fsus4
You never gave a warning sign (You never gave a warning sign)
