The Silver Light
From the album Unseen
[INTRO]
C G C F C G C
[VERSE 1]
C G C
There is no day or night
F C
in the forest of slot machines
Am F
flashing lights and cigarettes
C G C
free refills on your drink
[VERSE 2]
C G C
But if the golden deer of luck
F C
Never leaps the blackjack felt
Am F
Past old men with their oxygen
C G C
feeding quarters to the slots
[CHORUS]
F C
Will you see the silver light?
E F
Can you see the silver light?
C
Can you see it hiding
G C
there in your empty hands?
[SOLO]
C G C F C Am F C G C
[CHORUS]
F C
Will you see the silver light?
E F
Can you see the silver light?
C
Can you see it shining
G C
there in your empty hands?
[VERSE 3]
C G C
Beefy nachos, chicken wings
F C
All-you-can-eat buffet
Am F
A bar shaped like a racing car
C G C
Neon glow-stick in your drink
[VERSE 4]
C G C
And if the angels never come
F C
Soaring down on golden wings
Am F
And anoint your shaking fist
C G C
with a pa-ir of paper kings
[CHORUS]
F C
Will you see the silver light?
E F
Can you see the silver light?
C
Can you see it hiding
G C
there in your empty hands?
[OUTRO]
N.C.
Will you see the silver light?
N.C.
Can you see the silver light?
N.C.
Can you see it shining
N.C.
There in your empty hands?
