Verse
I think I'll go home and mull this over
before I cram it down my throat
at long last it's crashed, its colossal mass
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
G*
far above our heads are the icy heights that contain all reason
Verse
it's a luscious mix of words and tricks
that let us bet when you know we should fold
on rocks I dreamt of where we'd stepped
and 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
G*
this is way beyond my remote concern
of being condescending
Bridge
all these squawking birds won't quit
building nothing, laying bricks
W/ Organ Solo
Bm A G Em D A G x2
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
G*
this is way beyond my remote concern
of being condescending
Bridge
all these squawking birds won't quit
building nothing, laying bricks
