F5
Under the wheels the hope will spring
  A5
Mirages lost a few more things
    D5
You left your sorrow dangling
   Bb5                      C5
It hangs in the air like a school cheer


F5
From black notes inside the chords
    A5
On every wall inflections coughed
D5
Deepest lakes and darkest stars 
  Bb5                 C5             Bb5   
Remember we were the volunteers.        Oooooo


A5                   Bb5
Courts knew this and nothing more  Ooooo
A5                 Bb5              F5
Now it?s my rights versus yours


F5
Under your wheels your hopeless reign
A5
You fall too hard were up to late
     D5
With hands suspended from the heights
  Bb5                C5
Until it?s safer to walk here
F5
Under your wheels your chances win
    A5
The easy call, the call off search
    D5
The medicine, it still won?t work
    Bb5                          C5        Bb5
But there?s dangerous levels of it here      Ooooo


A5                Bb5
Same thing as the other time
    A5                   G5
But now it?s your rights versus mine
    Bb5                     F5     G5
The truth in one free afternoon
    Bb5                     F5   
The truth in one free afternoon
C5                   D5
Under my wheels the chances help
   A5                 Bb5
It gave me to save if from myself
    C5                  D5              Bb5                     
The spectacles painted with my shaking hand
C5                     D5
Fingers and paints if paints we brought
A5                    Bb5
Thinking we?d be even when we?re not
C5                   D5             Bb5
Flying the flags of new empires in rags
                G5         Bb5                 F5    (4x)
A new empire in rags.  The truth in free afternoon (4x)


F5                       
Under their wheels the fencers and start
  A5
A time to dabble in the arts
   D5
To teach the packs dogs in charge
    Bb5                C5          
But kid it?s always beyond me
F5
Under the wheels the hope will spring
    A5
The rashes have lost a few more things
    D5
The medicine it still won?t sing
    Bb5                          C5
But there?s dangerous levels of it here


F5                                   A5
                          Ooo oo oo oo               
D5          C5         Bb5     A5     G5
Your rights versus my rights versus
Eb5                     F5                                     A5
You came to my place.  Your rights versus my rights versus
D5          C5         Bb5     A5     G5
Your rights versus my rights versus
Eb5                     F5                                     A5
You came to my place.  Your rights versus my rights versus

End on
