B
Well I’m changing all my strings
E
I’m gonna write another travellin’ song
B
About all the billion highways
F#
And the cities at the break of dawn
B
Well I guess the best that I can do now
E
Is pretend that I’ve done nothing wrong
F#
And dream about a train that’s gonna
E B
Take me back where I belong
B
Now the ocean speaks and spits
E
And I can hear it from the interstate
B
And I’m screaming at my brother
F#
On the cell phone, he is far away
B
And I’m saying nothing in the past
E
Or future ever will feel like today
F#
Until we’re parking in an alley,
E B
Just hoping that our shit is safe
E B
So I go back and forth forever
E B
All my thoughts, they come in pairs
E Ebm
Well I will I won’t I doubt I don’t
C#m
I’m not surprised
E F# B
But I never feel quite prepared
(Mute Strings)
(B)
Now I’m hunched over a typewriter
(E)
I guess you’d call that painting in a cave
(B)
And there’s a word I can’t remember
(F#)
And a feeling I can not escape
(B)
And now my ashtray’s overflowing
(E)
I’m still staring at a clean white page
F#
And morning’s at my window
E B
And she is sending me to bed again
B
Well I dreamed of dark on the horizon,
E
I dreamed a desert where the dead laid down
B
I dreamed a prostituted child
F#
Touching an old man in a fast food crowd
B
Oh Yeah I dreamt a ship was sinking,
E
There was people screaming all around
F#
And I awoke to my alarm clock,
E B
It was a pop song, it was playing loud
E B
So I will find my fears and face them
E B
Or I will cower like a dog
E Ebm
I will kick and scream or kneel and plead
C#m E F# B
I’ll fight like hell to hide that I’ve given up
Full
key step up
Half
key step up
Half
key step down
Full
key step down
