	Am (x02210@1)                 C (x32010@1)	Sleep as the goer

	    Am (x02210@1)                    C (x32010@1)the bridge that watches the light speed through

	Bbm (x13321@1)               Cm (x3101x@1)And cries while the spirit stumbles

	Bbm (x13321@1)  		  Cm (x3101x@1)                   Amaj7 (x02120@1)and inside missile for the protection of you

	
        Am (x02210@1)               C (x32010@1)	Maybe it's silent

	    Am (x02210@1)                C (x32010@1)   
	the voice can't bear anymore strain

	Bbm (x13321@1)              Cm (x3101x@1)but speaks without even knowing

	    Bbm (x13321@1)          Cm (x3101x@1)                      Amaj7 (x02120@1)and streams out of sight in the direction of truth

	Gm (355333@1)               C (x32010@1)               Dm (xx0231@1)	There's no reason there's no secret to decode

	Gm (355333@1)              C (x32010@1)              Dm (xx0231@1)     C (x32010@1)	wide open arms can feel so cold, so cold

	Feel so cold


Part C (01:52 - 02:09):


	Em (022000@1)name="chord_244322@1">Gb	D (xx0232@1)name="chord_x13321@4">Dbm	Bm (x24432@1)name="chord_022100@1">E


Part D (02:10 - 04:44):


	Transition - Play Amajor (x02220@1)until the singing comes in.

	A (x02220@1)	Balance the books, the ledges, the loons

	                             Gbm (244222@1)the disappointed look on the faces

	                   E (022100@1)that squint at the moon

	Dbm (x13321@4)                     Bm (x24432@1)I've seen it with shadows enhanced

	         Dbm (x13321@4)                 D (xx0232@1)and then vote to decide who'll advance


	A (x02220@1)Silver jet plane, making aturn (x02210@1)
	                        Gbm (244222@1)                        E (022100@1)exciting the brain that expects it to crash and then burn

	Dbm (x13321@4)                           Bm (x24432@1)it's not the life lesson I'd've guessed

	Dbm (x13321@4)                           D (xx0232@1)if you're conscious you must be depressed

	            A (x02220@1)                 Dbm (x13321@4)or at least cynical


	Em (022000@1)But someone might still eat the steaks

	Gb (244322@1)even if they're tough


	D (xx0232@1)Spending the day

	Dbm (x13321@4)chewing the fat

	Bm (x24432@1)                E (022100@1)                      A (x02220@1)floating away isn't rough but it's not enough


	A (x02220@1)Oh Marianne, pass me the joint

	
	the sandpaper's tan

	   Gbm (244222@1)                   E (022100@1)go-getters are surfing the point

	    Dbm (x13321@4)                    Bm (x24432@1)and London's ascratch (x02210@1)on the lens

	     Dbm (x13321@4)          D (xx0232@1)it's over before it begins

	A (x02220@1)Silk 'round her neck falls down to her shoulders

	                     Gbm (244222@1)                    E (022100@1)the older I get, the more I suspect there's atrick (x02210@1)
	    Dbm (x13321@4)                      Bm (x24432@1)but really there's no trick at all

	     Dbm (x13321@4)               D (xx0232@1)that doesn't result in afall (x02210@1)
	     A (x02220@1)                Dbm (x13321@4)or afaltering (x02210@1)

	Em (022000@1)But something might spit out the bait

	Gb (244322@1)even if it's real


	D (xx0232@1)Rolling away

	Dbm (x13321@4)missing the spoke

	Bm (x24432@1)                       E (022100@1)                A (x02220@1)         Dbm (x13321@4)close to the ground like awheel (x02210@1)but it's not joke


	D (xx0232@1)Holding the line

	Dbm (x13321@4)clutching the phone

	Bm (x24432@1)              E (022100@1)                 A (x02220@1)nobly wasting the night, but it isn't right

	                  Gb (244322@1)it's not right


	D (xx0232@1)Smelling for blood

	Dbm (x13321@4)praying for rain

	Bm (x24432@1)               E (022100@1)                 A (x02220@1)running away isn't rough, but it's not enough


Let the last A chord ring.

	Bb (x1333x@1)                  Dm (xx0231@1)          Gm (355333@1)	to breathe in everything exposed
