Its Hard To Get Around The Wind

Key: CHard

CIts like you're trying to get to heaven in a hurry

and the queue was shorter than you thought it would be

and doorDmman says you need Gto get a wristbandC

CYou gotta lift between the pitfalls

but you're looking like you're low on energy,

did you get Dmout and walk to insure youG'd miss the qCuicksand

lFooking for a new place to bCegin

feDmeling like its hard to unGderstand

but Cas long as you still, keep peC7ppering the pill

you'll Ffind a way, to spit itD7 out again

and eCven when you know, Gthe way it's gonAmna blow

Fit's hardG, to get around the wind

CDmGC

Cstretching out the neck on your evening

trying to even out some defects

but its sDmabre-toothed multGi-ball confusioCn

CAnd you can shriek until you're hollow

or whisper it the other way

trying toDm save the youGth, without putting Cyour shoes on

lFooking for a new place to bCegin

feDmeling like its hard to unGderstand

but Cas long as you still, keep peC7ppering the pill

you'll Ffind a way, to spit itD7 out again

and eCven when you know, Gthe way it's gonAmna blow

Fit's hardG, to get around the wind

CGAmFGCCGAmFEAmCFD7CGAmFG

CI can hear you through my window

but i'm never quite sure who is who

but theDmy want the woGrld on a desCert spoon

Cit always sounds like they're fighting

or as if that's what they're about to do

iDmt might not hurtG now, but it's Cgonna hurt soon

CThere's glass in the park,

Darling, I Dmcan't help but Gkeep making aDmppointments,

Piledriver Waltz

Key: CCapo 1Medium

CI etched the face of a stopwatch

AmOn the back of a raindrop

EAnd did a swap for the sand in an Fhourglass.

CI heard the nun happy ending Amit sort of sounds like youre leaving

EI heard the piledriver waltz, Fit woke me up this morning. C

You look like youve bFeen for breakfast at the hDmeartbreak hotelAm

And sat in a back booth by theF pamphlets and the DmliteraturAme on how to lose.

Your Fwaitress was Gmiserable and Amso was your Efood.

If you?re gonna Ftry and walkG on water make sure you wear your comfortable

shoes.

CMysteries flashing amber Amgo green when you answer but the Ered on the rest of

the questionnaire Fnever changes.

CI heard the news that youre planning tAmo shoot me out of a cannon.

EI heard the piledriver waltz, Fit woke me up this morningC.

You look like youve bFeen for breakfast at the hDmeartbreak hotelAm

And sat in a back booth by theF pamphlets and the DmliteraturAme on how to lose.

Your Fwaitress was Gmiserable and Amso was your Efood.

If youre gonna tFry and walk Gon water make sure you wear your comfortable

shoes.
