[Verse 1]
Em
Pictures watch from the sidewalk 
past
Bm
Poems go flying in the drafts
C               Bm                
All we ever got left is a pile of 
Em
things
Em
I visit you with nothing burning
C             Bm
Hidden heart, stomach churning
C              Bm          
Circled in the words like the 
   Em
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                     
There's things unfelt that he's 
        Em
always longed to feel

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

[Chorus]
C                     Bm         
I've been waiting for you and me 
   Em         D             G
to watch this world from a window 
seat
C                         Bm
Look down there, all them tiny 
             Em
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    
So we can toss our suitcase into 
           Em
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   
We've, it's times like this we 
      D
remember to bleed
       Em           C         G  
Let it roll, let it ride, let it 
        Em
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
