The Landfill

Intro 
D  G  C 


 
           D       G    C 
This is an ode to eternity 
           D   G         C 
Sung by an old show pony 
        Bm             Am 
In this long, slow rodeo 
             C 
I've come to know 
 

 
        B7 
Lookin' down from the landfill 
      Em           G              C 
I can see the city lights a-shimmerin' 
                B7 
And it's like a holy vision 
                Em 
Of what could be 
Em 
And couldn't be 
               Am 
And could have been 
            G              C 
And now I'm sitting in the car 
                G              C   D 
Thinking, "It's written in the stars..."

            D          G    C 
This is the end of the movie 
                D       G     C 
The Song of the Bawling Beauty 
              Bm            Am 
It was such a sad, sweet story 
                        C 
Maybe eventually you'll see 
 

 
                B7 
So yeah, you've seen into my heart 
           Em          G                 C 
And you've seen what I never really could 
                B7 
Now I'm lookin' down from the landfill 
          Em                     Am 
I see the lights of your neighborhood 
        G               C     G 
Yeah, I always knew you would 
                C   Em   Bm    Em   Bm   Am 
End up somewhere good 
 

Outro 
        G               C 
Yeah, I always knew you would 
G                C 
End up somewhere good 
            G              C 
And now I'm sitting in the car 
                G              C 
Thinking, "It's written in the stars..."
