[Verse 1]
Bm Bm A G Em
I think I'll go home and mull this over
D A G
Before I cram it down my throat.
Bm
At long last its crashed,
A G Em
its collossal mass
D A G
has broken up into bits in my moat.
[Chorus]
Em D Em D
Lift the mattress off the floor,
Em D
Walk the cramps off,
A G
Go meander in the cold.
Em D
Hail to your dark skin,
Em D
Hiding the fact you're dead again,
Em D A G
Underneath the power lines seeking shade.
Far above our heads are the icy heights that contain all
reason.
[Verse 2]
Bm A G Em
Its a luscious mix of words and tricks
D A G
That let us bet when we know we should fold
Bm A G Em
On rocks I dreamt of where we stepped And
D A G
of the whole mess of roads we're now on.
[Chorus]
Em D Em D
Hold your glass up, hold it in
Em D A G
Never betray the way you've always known it is.
Em D Em
One day I'll be wondering how
D Em
I got so old just wondering how
D A G
I never got cold wearing nothing in the snow.
This is way beyond my remote concern
Of being condescending
[Bridge]
Bm A G F#m Em F#m G
All these squawking birds won't quit.
Bm A G F#m Em F#m G
Building nothing, laying bricks.
