Dmaj7 [Intro 2]DDsus2 Dmaj7 GDsus2 Dmaj7 GDsus2 Dmaj7 [Verse]Dsus4 Toward the tail-end of the age that's almost finishedDsus4 Where the highway starts to crack and nobody fixes it Dsus2 (add6) I was wandering through an undeveloped tractD Out near the oceanDsus4 One-hundred acres, we will build to suitDsus4 See what there is to see before it's goneDsus2 Somebody's always just aboutDsus4 D To put some kind of awful plan in motionG Eastern red cedars, and the pinesG And suddenly an elevated stone slabContinues after the adG In what must have been a clearingD onceG Try to recognize the signals and the signpostsG F# Em D My curiosityEm D Asus4 Will likely always get the bestA of meD It's like that one thingE My Dad kept trying to tell meG As the twilightD Inched its way on up his bodyD E G D Get out, get out, get out, get outDsus4 Well of course I climbed atop the slab and I lay down on itDsus4 I am a childDsus4 I had my face toward the skyDsus4 Lying there in the sun with bothD my eyes closedDsus4 Woke up in near darknessDsus4 What the hell is wrong with meDsus4 Volunteer pines in their hundreds in the dusk like military tentpolesG Let my eyes adjustG Try to read the markings on the slabG Weird alphabets I felt sure ID hadn't seen, just before I passed outG Stars growing brighterG Me looking upG F# Em Like a lobster in a cage down in theD depthsAsus4 Beneath the bottom of a glass boatD And I heard a voiceE From somewhere out beyond the free fallG Like a captive soldier He's just trying to warn hisD brothersD E G D Get out, get out, get out, get out
