F
Under the wheels the hope will spring
  Am
Mirages lost a few more things
    Dm
You left your sorrow dangling
   Bb                      C
It hangs in the air like a school cheer


F
From black notes inside the chords
    Am
On every wall inflections coughed
Dm
Deepest lakes and darkest stars 
  Bb                 C             Bb   
Remember we were the volunteers.        Oooooo


Am                   Bb
Courts knew this and nothing more  Ooooo
Am                 Bb              F
Now it?s my rights versus yours


F
Under your wheels your hopeless reign
Am
You fall too hard were up to late
     Dm
With hands suspended from the heights
  Bb                C
Until it?s safer to walk here
F
Under your wheels your chances win
    Am
The easy call, the call off search
    Dm
The medicine, it still won?t work
    Bb                          C        Bb
But there?s dangerous levels of it here      Ooooo


Am                Bb
Same thing as the other time
    Am                   Gm
But now it?s your rights versus mine
    Bb                     F     Gm
The truth in one free afternoon
    Bb                     F   
The truth in one free afternoon
C                   Dm
Under my wheels the chances help
   Am                 Bb
It gave me to save if from myself
    C                  Dm              Bb                     
The spectacles painted with my shaking hand
C                     Dm
Fingers and paints if paints we brought
Am                    Bb
Thinking we?d be even when we?re not
C                   Dm             Bb
Flying the flags of new empires in rags
                Gm         Bb                 F    (4x)
A new empire in rags.  The truth in free afternoon (4x)


F                       
Under their wheels the fencers and start
  Am
A time to dabble in the arts
   Dm
To teach the packs dogs in charge
    Bb                C          
But kid it?s always beyond me
F
Under the wheels the hope will spring
    Am
The rashes have lost a few more things
    Dm
The medicine it still won?t sing
    Bb                          C
But there?s dangerous levels of it here


F                                   Am
                          Ooo oo oo oo               
Dm          C         Bb     Am     Gm
Your rights versus my rights versus
Eb                     F                                     Am
You came to my place.  Your rights versus my rights versus
Dm          C         Bb     Am     Gm
Your rights versus my rights versus
Eb                     F                                     Am
You came to my place.  Your rights versus my rights versus
