[Verse 1]
Em
Pictures watch from the sidewalk past
Bm
Poems go flying in the drafts
C               Bm                Em
All we ever got left is a pile of things
Em
I visit you with nothing burning
C             Bm
Hidden heart, stomach churning
C              Bm             Em
Circled in the words like the vultures

[Chorus]
Em   C               Em
Your mouth becomes a dictionary
          D     G
Words without a home get weary
C          Bm              Em
Lonely on their own on the page
C             Bm
Look it up to find my heart
Em        D         G
Tear that old shit apart
C                 Bm              Em
Till you find the words to sum me up

[Interlude]
|Em  |Em  |Em  |Em  |C |

[Bridge]
C                     Em
I don't need no lullabies
C                               Em
You sit me down here and you cry

[Interlude]
|Em  |Em  |Em  |Em  |Em|

[Verse 2]
Em
The music man sings his mystery songs
   Bm               C
He tries to put his finger on
        Bm                             Em
There's things unfelt that he's always longed to feel

Em
There's things we all are destined to loose
      Bm
While I seek out that crooked muse
    C                  Bm                Em
You stole my heart and filled it up with blues

[Chorus]
C                     Bm            Em         D             G
I've been waiting for you and me to watch this world from a window seat
C                         Bm             Em
Look down there, all them tiny creatures running crazy
    C                 Bm
And I've been here on this precipice
    Em        D       G
Await the porter to bring our things
          C                 Bm               Em
So we can toss our suitcase into the wind at last

[Interlude]
|Em  |Em  |Em  |Em  |

[Bridge]
G Em  C             G         D
We've all the merry things we needed
G Em   C              G         D
We've, it's times like this we remember to bleed
       Em           C         G          Em
Let it roll, let it ride, let it ride on me

|Em  |Em  |Em  |Em C|

C                        Em
Lay me down here in your field
C                         Em
They know just, what they steal
