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, the colossal mass
D A G
has broken up into bits in my moat.
Em D Em D
lift the mattress off the floor
Em D
walk the cramps off
A G
go meander in the cold
Em D
hail to your dark skin
Em D
hiding the fact you're dead again
Em D A G
underneath the powerliness 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
and of the whole mess of roads we're now on.
Em D Em D
hold your glass up, hold it in
Em D A G
never betray the way you've always known it is.
Em 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 no-thing, lay-ing bricks.
