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.

Death Cab for Cutie - Diamond and a Tether This sounds right to me, listen to the song to get the right rhythm. I left out the two extended portions of the song for simplicity's sake.
Verse: GCG Pity, take pity on me. CAmCG 'Cause I'm not half the man that I should be. CGCG Always turning to run, CAmCGCG from the people I should not be afraid of.
CGCG And darling, you should know CAmCG that I have fantasies about being alone. CG It's like love is a lesson, CG that I can't learn. CAmCG I make the same mistakes at each familiar turn.
Chorus: EmCG I know you can't hold out forever EmCGD waiting on a diamond and a tether EmC from a boy who won't swim B7Em but who will dip his toe in A7CGCG just to keep you here with him.
Verse: CGCG I've got this habit I abhor. CAmCG When we go out I'm always watching the door. CGCG As if there's someone I'm gonna see CAmCG who could outdo the things that you do to me.
Chorus: EmCG And I know you can't hold out forever EmCGD waiting on a diamond and a tether EmC from a boy who won't fly B7Em but who will take to the skies A7CGCGC if he thinks you are about to say goodbye.
Verse: GCG Pity, take pity on me. CAmCG 'cause I'm not half the man that I should be. CG And I don't blame you, CG you've had enough, CAmCG of all these empty promises and countless bluffs.
Chorus: EmCG 'cause I know you can't hold out forever EmCGD waiting on a diamond and a tether EmCB7Em from a boy who won't jump when he falls in love. A7CEm He just stands with his toes on the edge A7CG and he waits for it do disappear again.
