C C C
C Em
It's a mass grave
Dm C
A dollar-fifty resting place
C Em
On the north face
Dm G
there's a rope I've gotta climb
Am G
I'm a stone's throw
F Em
from everyone I love and know
Am Em
But I can't show
F G
up looking like I do
C Em
In an old suit
Dm C
my hair is slicked up back nice and smooth
C Em
In a court room,
Dm G
sweat rolling down my back
Am G
It's a bad dream
F Em
I have it seven times a week
Am Em
No it was not me
F G C
But I'm the one who has to die
[Harmonica]

[Verse]
C Em
Needs a cold draw
Dm C
to slow his tachycardia
C Em
In a dark bar
Dm G
the world just melts away
Am G
And he feels fine
F Em
If he can just lose track of time
Am Em
It's a good sign
F G
when he can't stay awake
C Em
On a slow day
Dm C
the rain against the windowpane
C Em
of the cafe
Dm G
She spills the coffee grounds
Am G
And the same thought
F Em
hits her like a cinder block
Am Em
Life's an odd job
F G C
that she don't got the nerve to quit
[Harmonia]
C Em Dm C

Am G F G
[Verse]
C Em
Yeah it's just there
Dm C
At the bottom of those spiral stairs
C Em
It's the world's fair
Dm G
The future's on display
Am G
In the still night
F Em
They turned on the electric lights
Am Em
And the crowd cried out
F G C
Everyone looked so amazed
[Outro]
