Tilt your head back and try to cough.

Don't say nothin' about the things you never saw.
C Em
Let the night air cool you off.
C Em
I ain't livin' like I should.

A little rest might do me good.

Got to sinking in the place where I once stood.

The only pirates on the sea.

Is that the man I want to be?

Can you hear that singing? Sounds like gold.

And maybe I can hear poor Richard from the grave.

Singing where to reap and where to sow

When you've found another home you have to leave.
Em
And something else you can't believe.

Something else you can't believe.
