C Em Dm Am
I'm sick you're tired let's dance
C Em Dm Am
Break to love make lust I know it isn't
C Em Dm Am
I'm sick you're tired let's dance dance dance
C Em Dm Am
Cold as numbers but let's dance
F Am Dm Am
As though it were easy for you to leave me
F Am Dm G
I could be passive gracefully
E Am F E
Half the horizon's gone- skyline of numbers
E Am F E Dm
Half the horizon's gone- working the numbers 'til I'm sick
C Em Dm Am
Sleep don't pacify us until
C Em Dm Am
Day break sky lights up the the grid we live in
C Em D F#
Dizzy when we talk so fast
C Em Dm Am
Fields of numbers streaming past
C Em Dm Am Em
I wish we were farmers I wish we knew how to
C Em Dm
Grow sweet potatoes and milk cows
C Em Dm Em
I wish we were lovers but it's for the best
Dm C Em Am C
Tonight your ghost will ask my ghost- 'Where is the love '
Dm C Em Am Fm
Tonight your ghost will ask my ghost- 'Who here is in line for a raise '
Dm C Em Am C
Tonight your ghost will ask my ghost- 'Where is the love '
Dm C Em Am Am Em Am
Tonight your ghost will ask my ghost- 'Who put these bodies between us '
