Capo: 3rd fret



Intro: C5 D5 G5 C5


C5                        D5
There's rumbling in the head again
G5                       C5
Inside the head there lived a brain
C5                        D5
Inside the brain there lived a dream
      G5                  C5
That shot round like a laser beam
C5                    D5
Along nerve endings and synapses
G5                   C5
Past the room for memory lapses
C5               D5
Bought about by alcohol
      G5              C5
That causes all the cell collapses


C5 D5 G5 C5


C5                         D5
Now, that dream's not the only one
      G5                C5
I had plenty more when I was young
C5                D5
But I grew up in a big hurry
     G5               C5
And then one day I start to worry that
          D5               G5                  C5
I'm gonna be a goner before I read all the books I wanna
C5                           D5
If I plant a tree now it'll be fully grown
      G5              C5
Long after I'm just dust and bone and
C5       D5              C5         G5
Now I can't sleep, it's already 3 AM
       C5            D5               G5                  C5
And Im lying here dividing sheep by the square root of ten


C5 D5 G5 C5


C5                  D5
So I gave away my clothes to charity
    G5            C5
I turned off my TV for clarity
C5                    D5
And somedays I still envy those
    G5              C5
Walking around wearing my clothes


              G5                 D5         C5
So I'll just plant a tree I'll never see grow
      G5                        D5           C5
Put a seed in the ground where no one'll know
       G5                     D5       C5
Gonna make my plan when the morning breaks
       G5                   D5          C5
But I just don't know how long it'll take


C5 D5 G5 C5


C5                           D5
I keep hearing voices and ringing phones
          G5                     C5
But Im staring down a highway all alone
C5                            D5
With just the company of my stomach rumble
       G5           C5
And I feel OK, it makes me humble
C5                   D5
Without a load that I must carry
      G5                   C5
Or a bump in the road to make to tarry
C5                              D5                      G5       
        C5
Just a pile of ashes from the miles I've burned and everything Ive learned

C5
What have I learned?

               C5                 D5
Don't walk in front of cars or behind horses
      G5                       C5
Cats don't drink milk out of flying saucers
C5
Green means go
D5
Yellow: go faster
G5                 C5
Red means stop or financial disaster
C5                    D5                         G5          C5
And don't ever underestimate the fitness of a determined Jehovahs witness
C5                    D5                     G5               C5
And don't ever ever take for granted what grew from every kiss you planted
C5                           D5
If a heart can break then a heart can feel
       G5                  C5
It's to know that you're alive and real
C5                           D5
Like the rattlin, bouncin little white ball
       G5          C5
Not a number on a roulette wheel
C5            D5              C5                G5
And hair it turns grey and skin it turns to leather
         C5               D5                 G5          C5
But the best thing about growing old is we all do it together


              G5                 D5         C5
So I'll just plant a tree I'll never see grow
      G5                        D5           C5
Put a seed in the ground where no one'll know
       G5                     D5       C5
Gonna make my plan when the morning breaks
       G5                   D5          C5
But I just don't know how long it'll take

C5                                       D5
They say that a love that's shared is a love that's carried
        G5                        C5
All the way to the church where you'll be married
C5                                 D5                G5          
          C5
And it's a long old way down the aisle to alter and you don't have the time to falter
C5                 D5
Love will always come and go I hope
      G5                 C5
But sometimes love goes up in smoke
C5                               D5
And you're left there with the greedy ghost
     G5             C5
And just when you need them most
C5                          D5
Some of your friends have disappeared
     G5               C5
And others started acting weird
            C5                        D5
And you?re left on your bed with an awful feeling
              G5                        C5
Till you've learned by heart all the cracks in the ceiling
C5                      D5                      G5               
  C5
And you think Oh god I just related to that awful love song I always hated
C5                    D5                     G5                C5
And the past it all becomes distorted like it was broke before you bought it
C5                    D5
Remember, you're the one who paid
           G5              C5
Pulled the pin out of the hand grenade
C5                  D5
It's up to you to leave your room
     G5              C5
But don't forget to bring your spade


           G5                   D5         C5
So you can plant a tree you'll never see grow
      G5                        D5         C5
Put a seed in the ground where no one'll know
      G5             D5          C5
Gonna make my plan forever to roam
      G5                   D5      C5
Gonna feed my nan in the nursing home
      G5                        D5       C5
Gonna make that plan when the morning breaks
      G5                   D5           C5
But I just don't know how long It'll take
