Am G F C Never worked so long and hard to F G cement a failure Am G F C We can blow on our thumbs and posture Am G C but the lonely is such delicate things Am G F C The wind from a wasp could blow them G C into the sea, with G C stones on their feet G C F G lost to the light and the loving we need CHORUS ------ F C Still to come F C G the worst part and you know it F C there is a numbness F C G in you heart and it's growing Am G F C Am G C Am G F C F G Am G F C Am G C Am G F C F G G VERSE ----- Am G F C With burnt sage and a forest of bygones Am G C I click my heels get the devils in line Am G F C A list of things I could lay the blame on might F G give me a way out Am G F C But with each turn it's this front and center Am G C Like a dart stuck square in your eye Am G F C Every post you can hitch your faith on is a G C pie in the sky G C chock full of lies G C a tool we devise to make F G sinking stones fly CHORUS ------ F C Still to come F C G the worst part and you know it F C there is a numbness F C G in you heart and it's growing OUTRO (slow down on the last three chords) ----- Am G F C Am G C
