(no guitar yet)
Em (022000@1)                          GI (320003@1)put on my clothes like a body guard
             Am (x02210@1)                      CI (x32010@1)put the dogs on patrol in my own back yard
        Em (022000@1)                GI (320003@1)don't wanna fight but I'm constantly ready
        Am (x02210@1)                                 CAnd (x32010@1)I don't rock the boat, but it's always unsteady

(Electric gtr starts picking arpeggios up)
        CThere's (x32010@1)an elephant in my head
        BmAnd (x24432@1)I tip toe around it
         EmThere (022000@1)are eggshells on the floor
         AmTherefore (x02210@1)I never touch the ground

(strumming)
        CIt's (x32010@1)like that old black hole,
        DNo (xx0232@1)matter how you try,
You set out each day
D7Never (xx0212@1)to arrive

(arpeggio up and down)
          EmI (022000@1)got my eyes on the prize
        GBut (320003@1)it looks just like a mystery
        Am (x02210@1)                    CAnd (x32010@1)it all goes by on the lonesome trail to victory
        Em (022000@1)                             GI'm (320003@1)drawing in the blinds, I got my own four walls
          Am (x02210@1)                     CAnd (x32010@1)the show really starts once the curtain falls

(strumming)
           CTake (x32010@1)this thorn from my side
        BmFix (x24432@1)this chip on my shoulder
        EmTime (022000@1)is racing with the clock
        AmAnd (x02210@1)I ain't getting any older

CIt's (x32010@1)like that old black hole,
        DNo (xx0232@1)matter how you try.
        CIt's (x32010@1)like that old black hole,
        DNo (xx0232@1)matter how you try.

        DNo (xx0232@1)matter how you try,
You set out each day
D7 (xx0212@1)                GNever (320003@1)to arrive

(no guitar, just organ)
GI (320003@1)put on my finest thread, and I wrap up my body tight
                              C (x32010@1)                                   GWith (320003@1)the sun in my eyes, I step into the night
         D/F# (200232@1)                      (Em)
Like the mystery in the dark, Oh, it's just another kind of light

(strumming)
        GI (320003@1)don't expect you to believe me
        C (x32010@1)       D (xx0232@1) GBut (320003@1)everything is alright

GI (320003@1)don't make rules for a living
I don't do tricks for a dime
                         CI (x32010@1)was born on a good day,
                          GDeaf, (320003@1)dumb and blind.
     DWho (xx0232@1)am I to tell the truth?
   AmOh (x02210@1)I don't even know what it is.

GI (320003@1)don't know how to say it
        C (x32010@1)          D (xx0232@1)        GBut (320003@1)I know that I can show you

        C (x32010@1)          D (xx0232@1)      GBut (320003@1)I know that I can show you

(double time)
        GI (320003@1)tie my boots up tight
And I head straight for bed
        CThere's (x32010@1)a pistol and a crystal
Underneath my pillow
        GThere's (320003@1)a tender heart
Inside that ugly armadillo
        C"These (x32010@1)are tears of joy,"
        DCried (xx0232@1)the weeping willow

CThere's (x32010@1)a spirit in the air
        DAnd (xx0232@1)there ain't no way around it
        GI (320003@1)was not prepared to lose it
        COn (x32010@1)the moment that I found it

CIt's (x32010@1)like that old black hole,
        DNo (xx0232@1)matter how you try.
