The Old Gold Shoe

    A        Amaj7
The gold stereo
D                 E
Stretches out the sound
D                   E
Turns the plates until they're 
rounded
    A              Amaj7
The whole that you know
     D             E
Gets closer to the ground
D              E
Closer to that thing you found
    Bm              Amaj7
For all our massive brains
   Bm       Amaj7
To call on choked remains
     Bm
It's painful
     E
It's certain
     F
That something's bound to break
   E    E7

[Verse]
     A            Amaj7
This house is not alone
    D                   E
I'm kicking 'round here somewhere
   D                 E
So check behind the ancient speaker
       A                      Amaj7
Like a pain, painful southern bliss
D                E
Poured upon like caramel
     D                  E
And garnished with some crushed 
pecans
   Bm             Amaj7
To grow is not to grind
   Bm             Amaj7
To mope is not to mind
    Bm
The old cap

The geezer
    F         E     E7
The 15 second teaser


[Verse]
  A           Amaj7
Behold and you know
D            E
Everyone's a ringer
     D          E
He's not even a very good singer
    A           Amaj7
The dirt on the tracks
    D             E
Has hardened into clusters
D               E
Earthen legs and honey mustard
  Bm               Amaj7
A storm is closing in
    Bm              Amaj7
Our leaves start to spin
     Bm
It's getting
     E
Much later
  F
I wish I heard your radio
   E     E7
(tonight)


[Verse]
    A             Amaj7
The people in the rain
    D                   E
Are staring through our backs
D               E
Wishing you had half a brain
    A              Amaj7
For all our little pain
D             E
Tender is the mangle
    D                E
The science diet the ivory tangle
    Bm         Amaj7
The world goes away
     D              Amaj7
Each every stinking day
    Bm
I'm getting
     E
Much better
     F                E     E7
This night's little upsetter

[Verse]
    A               Amaj7
The kids out in the street
D                   E
Take their toys and break them
D                  E
Look at them, then walk away
    A         Amaj7
The guy on the cross
   D           E
Is holier than I
    D              E
But then again he's made from 
plastic
    Bm              Amaj7
For all our massive brains
