Intro REmaj7 SOLmaj7 (x2)
REmaj7 SOLmaj7
this cocoon, caught in vesuvius' shadow
REmaj7
only the ashes remain
SOLmaj7
and i waited there for you
REmaj7 SOLmaj7
why couldn't you?
REmaj7 SOLmaj7
here we lie waiting for somethig to startle
REmaj7
to shake us from gravity's pull
SOLmaj7
and so sleeping hours are through
REmaj7 SOLmaj7
what can we do?
SIm SOLmaj7 MIm7
the sorry conclusion, the low dirty war, it happened before you came to
SIm SOLmaj7
but this is solution, and this is amends
MIm7
the joke always tends to come true
DO LAm MI
but there on your windowsill over the unmoving platoon
DO LAm MI
written in paperback, view to the quarterback's room
SOL
under waning moon
RE/FA# REm/FA MIm
this quiet serves only to hide you
SIm/FA# MIm
provide you
SOL SOLm REmaj7 SOLmaj7
what I knew, what I knew, it'd come back to you
REmaj7 SOLmaj7
take this palm, follow the lines here are written
and script out the rest of your life
and feel your fingers falling slack and all folding back
the tainted election, the hole in the sky
command what is tried, what is true
but without solution, with feet on the ground
it won't make a sound 'til you're through
so loosen your shoulderblades
this is your hour to make due
because there on the timberline
deep cold november shines through
soft and absolute
this quiet serves only to hide you
provide in you
what I knew, what I knew, it'd come back to you
