when making a D chord keep hammering G string
D
Hatred ,I hate the past
D F D
I can’t see anything at all, all I see is me
D
That’s clear enough
D F D
And that’s whats important, to see me
D
My eyes can focus. My brain is talking
F D
Looks pretty good to me
D
My head’s on straight, my girlfriend's beautiful
F D
Looks pretty good to me
D
Sometimes I speak tonight there’s nothing to say
D
Sometimes we freak
F D
And laugh all day
D
Hold these pages up to the light
D F D
See the jacknife inside of the dream
D
A railroad runs through the record stores at night
F D
Coming in for the deep freeze
D
Mary: a simple word,
D F D
are you there in the cold country?
D
Your eyes so full, your head so tight
F D
Can’t you hear me?
D
Remember our talk that day on the phone?
D F D
I was the door, and you were the station
D
With shattered glass and miles between us
D F D
We still flew away in the conversation
D
My cup is full, and I feel okay
D F D
The world is dull, but not today
D
She think’s she's a goddess
D F D
She says she talks to the spirits
D
I wonder if she can talk to herself?
D F D
If she can bear to hear it?
D
This is Eric’s trip
D F D
We’ve all come to watch him slip
D
He’s slipping all the way to Texas
F D
Can you dig it?
D
I see with a glass eye the pavement view
D
A shadow forming, across the fields rushing
F D
Thru me to you
D
We tore down the world, and put up four walls
F D
I breathe in the myth
D
I’m over the city, fucking the future
F D
I’m high and inside your kiss
D
We can’t see clear
D F D
But what we see is a alright
D
We make up what we can’t hear
D F D
And then we sing all night
D
Scattered pages and shattered lights
F D
See a jackknife and see a dream
D
There’s something moving over there on the right
F D
Like nothing I've never seen
