Slide against the fan, the room is clear,
Suddenly we have a vacuum.
In the mail a telegram, I could not wait, all aboard the caravan it leaves today,
And then the night comes on, the lights turn low,
fall asleep, all alone,
Consider for a second the ways of the world.
Maybe I'll throw myself a bone.
C G
Maybe I'll throw myself to the dogs, but my back's not to the wall.
C G
Maybe I'll lay some bricks for the man, but the days just aren't that long.
C F
So if I settle back and chill,
Am G G
Will I see far enough to feel the angel's dream?
I thought it was the story of the world.
Can I call out and say, everybody here,
Lend me an ear to talk to.
Can I call out and scream, the ways of the world,
Have got me singing another tune.
But the words are so familiar, I heard it before.
And you might dare to sing along.
With the crickets out chirping a random song,
Maybe I'll throw myself a bone.
C G
Maybe I'll throw myself to the dogs, but my back's not to the wall.
C G
Maybe I'll lay some bricks for the man, but the days just aren't that long.
C F
So if I settle back and chill,
Am G G
Will I see far enough to feel the angel's dream?
C
I thought it was the story of the world.
F C
I thought it was the story of the world.
F C
I thought it was the story of the world.
F
I thought it was the story.
