The Needle Has Landed

	  		
verse 1 

Em                     C    Em 
Here I am in traffic's slow flow (Where the needle touched down) 
Em                   C               Em 
Carbon planes draw a cage around the air force base (where the needle touched down) 
Em                         C        Em 
My foot on the brake it's ok to fly low 
     C         F 
Over poor Spanaway 

verse 2 
   C                         F 
An eagle swooped down from a semi-trailer 
         C                        F 
Took the name of your town from a shark-toothed freighter 
    C                      F 
The needle's the same it recorded and played 
         C                            F 
When you left me at the greyhound the year I moved away 
    C                        F 
And if I knew then what's so obvious now 
G                   C 
You'd still be here baby 
   F     Fm 
My baby, baby

So that's why I never come back here 
C                           F 
That's why they spit out my name 
     C                       F  
Your exes have clawed up the bible 
G                  C 
Trying to keep me away 
         C                  F 
With the sledge of tectonic fever 
    G                  C 
The needle has landed again 
       G  C 
Let it play

And if I knew then what's so obvious now

You'd still be here baby
