C5                                    A5      G5       F5
Slid right through the turnstile and off the loft we went,
         C5                            F5               G5
We were taken in by strangers, called out by coil and kin.
   C5                 A5          G5       F5
Oh concentrate on as far back as you can go,
              C5
When we would put a bullet in its
          F5                G5
belfry to prove it's all a hoax,
           C5          
So what we don't impress the fireworks
         A5         G5     F5
with the strumming of our smiles
            C5
But you can look up how high heaven is
    F5                G5
and try to count the miles,
         F5          G5         ( C5 )
Keeps us busy for awhile.



(play the intro once or twice inbetween the verses)



C5                                     A5    G5      F5
Said the cradle to the kick drum that life begins again,
      C5       
Smoke butts like spent bullets
       F5                 G5
Street sweepers home to sleep again
            C5
And when he put his arms around me his
A5       G5          F5
hoodie smelled like gasoline,
C5
So here's to all lost fragrances,


     F5                G5
To a future with some balance,
     F5                G5
To a future without judgment,
     F5              G5       C5
To a future with my   family


     F5                G5
To a future without anger,
     F5                 G5
To a fate of more than damaged fits,
     F5                G5        C5
To a future worth  re...membering.


(you can end with the intro and end on C or just invent your own ending)
