Lift The Curse

C   Bm   C   G


[Chorus]
C
Everyone who's drinking is already 
drunk or sleeping
Bm
Everyone who isn't is just too 
political to talk to
C
Another summer evening the city's 
barely breathing
G                            Bm
Just ain't the same just ain’t the 
same
C                                 
Without you, without you, without 
                      Bm
you, without you
C
Without you, without you,
G                            Bm
Just ain't the same just ain’t the 
same


[Verse]
                       C
There ain't no magic in materials 
magic's in our words
               Bm
Then we whisper in each others ears 
to make diamonds out of dirt
                        C
There ain't no glory in the silken 
things glory's in the hurt
               G                   
And can split your skin from end to
 end down the center of the earth
        Bm

[Chorus]
C
I said Everyone who's drinking is 
already drunk or sleeping
Bm
Everyone who isn't is just too 
political to talk to
C
Another summer evening the city's 
barely breathing
G                           Bm
Just ain't the same just ain’t the 
same


[Verse]
             C
I wasn't joking 'bout my burial 
backyard's what I prefer
              Bm
But my landlord wouldn't like that I
 gotta own a backyard first
                C
So I keep singin y'all these 
spirituals pray it lifts the curse
G
Keeps me chasing ghosts of dreams 
from funeral to birth
     C                             
In reverse, in reverse, in reverse,
   Bm
 in reverse
    C
In reverse, in reverse
G                                 
Keeps me chasing ghosts of dreams 
                                Bm
from funeral to birth

Without you, without you, without 
                     Bm
