[Verse 1]
A5 D5 A5 D5
When the deep blue night is running close on your track
A5 D5 A5 D5
And you can feel the green monkey crawlin' across your back
A5 D5 A5 D5
Don't take me so real that you forget how to feel
A5 D5 A5 D5
Don't let the threat of the dagger turn your heart into steel
[Chorus]

Smell the perfume of a silent dream
Em9 A7
Fly the ocean, read a story to me
Em9 A7
Speak the wisdom of a redwood tree
C N.C.
Speak to me

Will speak the fate of your evening, tell the truth to your lie

Don't let the features you read control the tickets you buy

Soon as you learn that you live, you're just beginning to die
