Verse
G
I can recall you standng tall,
Em
B man in all his glory gazing
Am
At them patterns painting rainbows in
D
The sunlight on the pavement
G
in the blackness where your axon sent me
Em
Softly into dreaming
Am
Over bends and home again only to
D
Turn up inbetween them
[Verse 2]
G
And the speakers shout me greetings
Em
They shout me revelations
Am
Where them villains wind up dancing and their fans come
D
Spend their paychecks
G
And we dance around a ram sent down(?) and
Em
We just wear the anthem sounds
Am
Tricksters and the tramps about,
D
Cheaters as the champs are crowned
[Verse 3]
G
You take your chances
Em
While the sunlight sets
Am
But no matter how ferocious
D
That the gunfight gets
G
The promised land i hear is merely
Em
One ride west
Am
I haven't had the time to take
D
But when the blood dries, let's
[Verse 4]
G Em
If you did not believe in all these
Am D
Silly little things you do
G Em
You might not feel that melancholy
Am D
When they turn out to not be true
G Em
But who's to say what's true and what isn't
Am D
He said she said that it's not you
Gm Em
Me oh my good god good riddance
Gm*
What a nice neat bloodless coupe
[Verse 5]
G Em
Youv'e been praying with dirty fingers
Am D
It's a wonder you can pray at all
G Em
'Til nighttime comes cool 'cross the vineyard
Am D
And it's a wonder I should think so small
G Em
But there she goes my moonlight daugthter
Am D
Baskin, brushing up against the rose
G Em
Sometimes she sings tunes I taught her
Gm*
Most times she don't use words at all
[Outro]
G Em
You get what you get and you don't throw a fit
Am D
Take what you make and don't tell no one shit (x4)
