Death Cab for Cutie is an American indie rock band formed in Bellingham, Washington in 1997. The band consists of Ben Gibbard (vocals, guitar, piano), Nicholas Harmer (bass), Jason McGerr (drums), Dave Depper (guitar) and Zac Rae (keyboards).
Death Cab began as a solo project of Ben Gibbard, now the band's vocalist and guitarist. Gibbard took the band name from the satirical song Death Cab for Cutie, performed by The Bonzo Dog Band in The Beatles' 1967 experimental film Magical Mystery Tour.

Dm (Am) F(C) Bb (F) Squeaky swings and tall grass The longest shadows ever cast The water's warm and children swim And we frolicked about in our summer skin
I don't recall a single care Just greenery and humid air Then Labor day came and went And we shed what was left of our summer skin
interlude strum each chord once from top to bottom F-C-Dm or (C-G-Am) F-C-Bb (C-G-F)
back to main Dm(Am) F(C) Bb(F) On the night you left I came over And we peeled the freckles from our shoulders Our brand new coats so flushed and pink And I knew your heart I couldn't win Cause the seasons change was a conduit And we left our love in our summe
