INTRO:
A#  D  A#  D   A  Gm


VERSE:
A#                             D
 They're slippin' through the holes again
A#                      Dm
 Those fire ants, they bite
            A
They don't make love like we used to
          G       G        A#
We don't read by candleli-ight
A#                      D
And I'll watch out for you, my friend
   A#                                     D
If you keep an eye on my place while I'm out of town
         A
And memorize this handshake so I'll know
     G              Em
You need to be put down

Em                           D
I'd like to help you but my hands are tied
 F#m                               Bm              G
Don't look so nervous, you've got nothin' to hi-i-ide


CHORUS:
       D          A           G
I can make your dreams come true
        D            A      G
If you let me listen in on you
        D     A      G   G
Let me listen in on you


VERSE:
A#                    D
 Diggin' through the bottles and the cans alone
A#                 D                      A
I didn't mean to slice my fingers to the bone
                            G
I'm kind of high from your lullaby
F#                 Gm    Em
I won't admit the reason why


PD-C HORUS:
Em                           D

If you let me listen in on you

I can make your dreams come true
        D            A      G
If you let me listen in on you

Let me listen in on you

Have you seen the big guns in the bay?
Bm    A          D         G                 Bm
  The evil that men do in picture books, we call them brave
A               D        G                       Bm
Do you need a translator to get you through your day?
 A                  D             G            Bm
They're primed and ready to come out of their caves
