Verse:
Em (022000@1)                            GAll (320003@1)the parts of me that lived inside

Em (022000@1)                              GAre (320003@1)drowning in the sea of waking life

Em (022000@1)                                 GThey (320003@1)don't know their colors don't belong on the outside

Em (022000@1)                                 GThey (320003@1)don't know their colors don't belong

Chorus:
               C (x32010@1)                      Em'til (022000@1)they're spread across the open road

C (x32010@1)                            Em'til (022000@1)they're spread across the asphalt on the open road

C (x32010@1)                               Am'til (x02210@1)they're streamin' in the wind like cassette tape or jellyfish

C (x32010@1)                             Em (022000@1)            GLong (320003@1)dark veins and records playing, memories...

Verse 2:
Em (022000@1)                                 GAll (320003@1)the things we yell don't mean a thing

Em (022000@1)                           GWhen (320003@1)we're spinnin' out of darkened meadow wind

Em (022000@1)                           GWhen (320003@1)we're flying like we're Mary's angels, through the shattered glass

Em (022000@1)                               GWhen (320003@1)we find that tall dark shadow waiting there with outstretched hands
       Em (022000@1)                         GHe (320003@1)has given me a dress of red, and you, a skin of gray

Em (022000@1)                               GWe'll (320003@1)be twistin' here for hours, 'til the light will bring us day
