Dead Drum

F C F C F C Am G

[Verse 1]
F     C         F         C
I was restless, your were hopeless
F     C               Am         
I was hoping we could figure this 
 G
out on our own
F       C        F        C
So damn fragile, god damn beautiful
F       C     Am       G
Like an angel dripping down on my 
soul
F       C    F      C
Pick my body like a good girl
F      C            Am           
I need someone to untangle these 
G
words in my head
F    C          F      C
In a white suit with a white nose
F    C             Am        G
I am stranded underneath the grip of
 the world

[Chorus]
F
Don't you tell me
C              Em         Am    
Driving up the west coast 
       F
beating on a dead drum
C            G          C
isn't really helping me out
F
Cause I'm real close to
C             Em         Am     
All the other sources of 
     F
existential voices,
    C                       G     
and that's the voice that's 
     C
helping me out

[Verse 2]
F  C          F   C
Go ahead now, get away from here
F       C            Am         
Ill be hiding in the hills till 
    G
the father is real?
F        C     F      C
I'm just doing what I feel is right
F      C      Am         G
Hiding from a dream so I blend in 
the light
F        C          F           
You're a snakebite, you've stuck
      C
 your teeth in me
F       C             Am        
I'm not dying but I'm set in my 
G
reasoning
F        C        F       
Question who now, question my 
    C
disbelief
F    C           Am            
In a statue that keeps staring back 
G
at me
F      C         F      C
Asking questions do you believe in 
god?
F        C       Am        G
He looks back at me with a wink and 
a nod

[Verse 3]
F       C       F            C
Here we are now I think I've found 
myself
F        C              Am    G
We won't know until the final date 
is unveiled
F       C       F        C
But I'm waiting for that special 
girl
F    C       Am           G
to unwind herself for the rest of 
the world
F      C          F         C
Try my spirit now it tastes real 
sweet
F        C              Am      
Like the water dripping out from
     G
 the stream on the east
F     C       F          C
Go to bed now I hope you sleep well
F         C        Am           
Won't you remember me when they ask 
G
you to tell

[Verse 4]
F         C       F            C
Who's the man now in the white coat
F      C           Am          
on the West Coast, banging his drum 
G
till the dawn?
F          C        F    C
For you to hear him underneath the 
sun
F       C     Am             G
full of heavy thoughts and a dream 
of his own
