Intro: F Dm C G
Verse:
F Dm C G
Sitting on a futon mat in a squat in Darmstadt. Kevin Seconds said to me in passing.
F Dm C
"Age never meant shit to me. It's all about heart and stupidity." I thought that there's no better way to
G
live.
F Dm C
We were on the steps in Borno. When she bit my lip and choked my throat. A hi-ball glass shattered above
G
our heads.
F Dm C
It seemed her lover listened through the walls. While we we were kissing, arm in arm. I left and spent the
G
night alone instead.
Chorus:
F G C E Am
I couldn't tell you dear, which one whispers in my ear. The Devil or St. Andrew but I know it's time to go.
F G C
I'm sure you've got a great theory. If I'm huntin' something or it's haunting me. I know there ain't no
E Am C F Fm C
right way to mea-sure the globe. Oh no. Oh no.
Verse (strumming tempo change): F C x 4
C F G
I know what you dream of, I dream of it too. Of roads that are endless and rooms that are huge.
Dm C
Are these visions of Heaven or nightmares I'm havin'? All I know is I'm scared of the truth.
F G
If the world could end very soon. And all we've accomplished is moot.
Dm C
I'll coat the carpet in gasoline strike our last match and leave before the whole house is consumed.
F G
So I'll cover my hand in tattoos. I'll kiss any woman that moves.
Dm C
There's no Lord to forgive me and physics is tricky so all that I'm left with is you.
F G Dm
All that I'm left with is you. All that I'm left with is you.
Chorus:
F G C E Am
I couldn't tell you dear, which one whispers in my ear. The Devil or St. Andrew but I know it's time to go.
F G C
I'm sure you've got a great theory. If I'm huntin' something or it's haunting me. I know there ain't no
E Am C F Fm C
right way to mea-sure the globe. Oh no. Oh no.
