Capo 5th fret


A             D                A
Held a bird's egg between her breasts
                D              A
There's reasons for the road I guess
       D              A
To document the indigenous
             D
To paint and sketch, paint and sketch
    A           E       D    A
I'm starting to fail to be impressed


A      D            A
United state of ricochet
              D                  A
From the boardwalk to the Appian way
            D                    A
The diamond files, the corporate raves
                  D
You'd practically kill not to be afraid
        A           E            D        A
And I'm starting to choke on the things I say


            E                                   A
I'm putting down, I'm putting down, I'm putting down
            E                                   D
I'm putting down, I'm putting down, I'm putting down
            E                                   D       A
I'm putting down, I'm putting down, I'm putting down, down


A          D                        A
Browbeaten out from underneath your dress
        D            A
The documented indigenous
      D                  A
Civilization flipped its desk
             D
You know the rest, there is no rest
        A           E       D           A
And I'm starting to fail to know what's best


            E                                   A
I'm putting down, I'm putting down, I'm putting down
            E                                   D
I'm putting down, I'm putting down, I'm putting down
            E                                   D       A
I'm putting down, I'm putting down, I'm putting down, down
