Amaj7

AmSleep as the Cmaj7goer

Amthe bridge that watches the Cmaj7light speed thru

Bbmand cries while the Cmspirit stumbles

Bbmand inside missile for the pCmrotection of yoAmaj7u

Ammaybe it's Cmaj7siletn

Amthe voice can't bear Cmaj7anymore strain

Bbmbut speak without Cmeven knowing

Bbmand streams outside Cmin the direction of truth

PARTE 3

Asus4balance the books, the ledges, the loons

Asus4the disappointed look on the F#mfaces

that squint at the Emoon

let's C#msee it with shadows Bmenhance

and then C#mvote to decide Dwho'll advance

Asus4silver jet plane, making a turn

exciting the brain that F#mexpects it to crash and then Eburn

it's not C#mthe life lesson I'd'Bmve guessed

if you're C#mconscious you must be Ddepressed

Asus4or at least cynical C#m

but Emsomeone might still eat the steaks

Feven if they're tough

Dspending the day

C#mchewing the fat

Bmfloating away isn't Eroguh but it's not Asus4enough

Asus4oh marianne, pass me the joint the sandpaper's tan

F#mgo-getters are surfing the pEoint

and C#mlondon's a cratch Bmon the lens

it's C#mover before it Dbegins

Asus4silk 'round her neck falls down to her shoulders

the older I get, the mFmore I suspect there's a Etrick

but C#mreally there's no trip at Bmall

that C#mdoesn't result in a Dfall

or a Asus4faltering C#m

but Emsomething might spit out the bait

Feven if it's real

Drolling away

C#mmissing a spoke

Bmclose to the ground like a Ewheel but it's not Asus4enough C#m

Dholding the line

C#mclutching the phone

Bmnobly wasting the Enight, but it isn't Asus4right

it's not right F

Dsmelling for blood

C#mpraying for rain

Bmrunning away isn't Erough, but it's not Asus4enough

PARTE 4

Ebthe low tide is Gmtelling me, when it's Cmover, Fm Cm

Bbto breathe in Dmeverything Gmexposed

Eband comes back to Gmcover me in a Cmblanket Fm Cm

Bbbeing here's Dmalways changing Gmtunes

PARTE 6
