Nails In My Feet

              Am
My life is a house
                       Bdim
you crawl through the window
     E                             
slip across the floor and into the 
          Am
reception room
               Am              
you enter the place of endless 
Bdim
persuasion
       E
like a knock on the door
when there's ten or more things to 
Am
do


               C     F     Em    G
Who is that calling?
               C     F     Em    G
you my companion
               C       F       E
run to the water on a burning beach
       Am         E
and it brings me relief

Pass through the walls
to find my intentions
circle 'round in a strange, hypnotic
 state
I look into space
there is no connection
a million points of light
and a conversation I can't face

Cast me off one day
to lose my inhibition
sit like a lap dog on a matron's 
knee
         Am             E    Am   E
wear the nails on your feet





I woke up the house
stumbled in sideways
the lights went on and everybody 
screamed "Surprise!"
the savage review
it left me gasping
but it warms my heart to see that 
you can do it too

Total surrender
your touch is so tender
                     C       F    
your skin is like water on a 
    G
burning beach
                     C    F   Em   G
and it brings me relief

                     C    F   G
Like a night in your mind
it brings me relief

in the back door
under the stars
and the scenery is my floor
in the back room
under the stars
and the scenery is my floor
