**************
WIPE THE CLOCK
**************

(Jay Farrar)

INTRO:  HARMONICA SOLO
(same chords as a verse)


VERSE 1:
G         D
   Hunted down
        G                 D/F#
Someone said no story, no gain
Em7           Bm          D5add9
     Wipe the clock right now
      D/F#         D
I despise what you crave


VERSE 2:
G          D
I remember you
        G                  D/F#
When you wore a different face
Em7           Bm           D5add9
Never heard a story of anyone
     D/F#             D
Who drove the black town insane

VERSE 3:
G          D
Leaning on a stoplight
        G                  D/F#
Waiting for eventual change
Em7           Bm           D5add9
Once it mattered right now
     D/F#             D
It's not so easy to gauge

VERSE 4:
G          D
Every time
     G              D/F#
That you ask for more
Em7           Bm           D5add9
It's the sound that makes the colors go blind
     D/F#             D
[no words on last line of this verse]


CHORUS:
    G    Em7            Asus
And everything comes in threes
Em7                      Asus
     But your face shows two
Em7         Asus
Lost in the watershed
    D
Way out of tune


HARMONICA SOLO
(same chords as a verse)

VERSE:
G          D
Ain't it hard
        G                  D/F#
When the spirit doesn't catch you
Em7           Bm           D5add9
Gravity's the winner, And it weighs you down
     D/F#         D
It weighs you down
