I think i’ll go home and mull this over
D A G
Before i cram it down my throat
Bm A G Em
At long last it’s crashed, it’s colossal mass
D A G Em
Has broken up into bits in my moat.
D Em D Em
Lift the mattress off the floor
D
Walk the cramps off
A G Em
Go meander in the cold
D Em
Hail to your dark skin
D Em
Hiding the fact you’re dead again
D A G
Undeneath the power lines seeking shade
G
Far above our heads are the icy heights that contain all reason
Bm A G Em
It’s a luscious mix of words and tricks
D A G
That let us bet when you know we should fold
Bm A G Em
On rocks i dreamt of where we’d stepped
D A G Em
And the whole mess of roads we’re now on.
D Em D Em
Hold your glass up, hold it in
D A G Em
Never betray the way you’ve always known it is.
D Em
One day i’ll be wondering how
D Em
I got so old just wondering how
D A G
I never got cold wearing nothing in the snow.
G
This is way beyond my remote concern
Of being condescending
Bm A G F#m Em F#m G
All these squawking birds won’t quit.
Bm A G F#m Em F#m G
Building nothing, laying bricks.
