B5
I never know what kind of day it is
G5 A5 B5
on my battlefield of ideals
B5
But the way she touches and the way it feels
G5 A5 B5
must be just how it heals
A5 B5
But it's got a little better since I let her sundance
Intro
I never know what time of year it is
living on top of the fire
But the robin outside has to hunt and hide
in the cold frosty shire
A5 B5
Ah but he knows just what goes in between his cold toes and his warm ears
A5 B5
And he's got no disguise in his eyes for his love as she nears
E5 D5 D5
Am (5th fret)
C5 (3rd fret)
G5 A5 E5

D\D5 E5
He spreads her a shelter
She takes the tall skies
As they helter skelter
Along the same sighs
A5 E5 G5 G/f# E5
She wakes my days with a glad face
She fakes and says I'm a hard case
She makes and plays like a bad ace
Carrying my days into scarred space
A5 E5
And she knows me well
A5
Ah but what the hell
E5 A5 E5 G5 G/f# E5
Only time can tell, where we're going to
D5 E5
Me and my woman
Me and my little woman
A5 E5 G5 G/f# E5
And the Lord speaks out and the pigpens fawn
The sword slides out and the nations mourn
The hoard strides out and the chposen spawn
The devil rides out and the heavens yawn
A5 E5
And he knows me well
A5
Ah but what the hell
E5 A5 E5 G5 G/f# E5
Only time can tell, where we're going to
D5 E5
Me and my woman
Me and my little woman
A5
A5
What a lovely day
D5 A5
What a day to play at living
What a mess we make
D5
What a trust we break
A5 D5
Not giving our wings to our children
A5
O how we fail them
E5
O how we nail them
Am (5th fret)
Sunset my colour
E5 D5 A5
And king is my name
A5
Darkness my lover
E5 D5 A5
And we live in shame
D5 A5
Too far away
From the light of the day
E5 D5 E5
And so near, and so here
A5 E5 D5 E5
Can i break through the silence that has taken my place
On the plains of the morning that i just could not face
E5
Asking you these questions
telling you these lies
Enveloping directions
Developing disguise
Open to suggestions
D5 E5
But I'm closed to all my eyes
G5 G/f# E5 G5 G5 E5
Dead on arrival, right where I stand
Dead on arrival, right where I stand
Dead on arrival, right where I stand
E5
Space is just an ashtray
Flesh is my best wheel
The atmosphere's my highway
And the landscape's my next meal
I need my own Good Friday
D5 E5
And I'm trying my best to fix the deal
G5 G/f# E5 G5 G5 E5
Dead on arrival, right where I stand
Dead on arrival, right where I stand
Dead on arrival, right where I stand
Dead on arrival, right where I stand
E5
I am the new crowned landlord
Of all beneath my star
Queueing up for doomsday
In my homesick motor car
Born before my mother
D5 E5
Died before my Pa
G5 G/f# E5 G5 G5 E5
Dead on arrival, right where I stand
Dead on arrival, right where I stand
Dead on arrival, right where I stand
Dead on arrival, right where I stand
A5 E5 G5 G/f# E5
And the cuckoo she moves through the dawn fanfare
The dew leaves the rooves in the magic air
I feel a finger running through my nightmares lair
I feel most together with my nowhere stare
A5 E5
and you know me well
A5
Ah but what the hell
E5 A5 E5 G5 G/f# E5
Only time can tell, where I'm going to
D5 E5
Me and my woman
Me and my little woman
Me and my woman
Me and my little woman
