Death Cab For Cutie es un grupo de indie-rock original de Bellingham, Washington. Se formó en 1997 y toma su nombre de una canción escrita por Vivian Stanshall, que forma parte del disco Gorilla (1967) de The Bonzo Dog Band y de la película experimental de The Beatles: Magical Mistery Tour.
Death Cab For Cutie comenzó como un proyecto en solitario de Ben Gibbard mientras era el guitarrista de Pinwheel. Como "Death Cab for Cutie", Gibbard editó un primer cassette llamado You Can Play These Songs With Chords.

Verse:
F Love of mine
Dm someday you will die,

Dm or tunnels to gates of white,
Bb just our hands clasped so tight
FC waiting for the hint of a spark.
Chorus:
DmFBbFC If heaven and hell decide that they both are satisfied,
DmFC illuminate the noes on their vacancy signs.

BbBbmF then I'll follow you into the dark.
Verse:
F In Catholic school,

Bb fear is the heart of love".
FC So I never went back.
Chorus:
DmFBbFC If heaven and hell decide that they both are satisfied,
