Verse III

 Em                C
In this local exit highway night
        D                      Em
We must grow accustomed to the sight
    Am         Am7                 C              C7     
And empty all surprise to see the capsize of the semis

 Em                                 C     
Cause nothing will stop the worlds physics from working
        D                    Em
Or the manner in which its  situated and lurking
 Am            Am7
Permanently so externally
           C            C7
But theres pleasure and death in each second to be reckoned with



Verse IV

 Em                               C
And theres boredom and sex within each wild minute
        D                     Em
And the mildest hour has some deadly power in it
    Am                   Am7
And maybe ill cower with Yia Yias silk flowers
       C                        C7
As the motion sensor light does brighten and sour



(Strumming Pattern Changes here) 

 Em                         C
On the back patio where the raccoons go
 D                               Em
Whining and divining through the grainy night glow
    Am               Am7
The same as me as Im fumbling to see
   C                       C7
An inch off my face with a pinch of disgrace


Small Breakdown (no Banjo)

 Em                         C            
Each photo of the summer is one in the same
       D                       Em 
With a bloodshot number in the corner of the frame
 Am                      Am7       
Dating each time that we became
C                   C7
Memorialized in the dimming


Repeat Chorus & Intro Riff x2


Verse V

 Em             C
A bat circles above my brain
     D              Em
As I walk down St. Joseph in the dusky graininess, 
Am        Am7            C                    C7
yes this gorgeousness is growing too dark too mention

 Em                 C
What becomes of the summer skin
        D                    Em
When it disintegrates in the blackness of the past
Am          Am7       C          C7
At last Ive become an extension
