[D]
So [G] I'm there, [Cm] charging around with a juggernaut brow
Overdrive speeches and [Dm] deadlines to make [D] Grumming commitments [Gm] like cats in a sack
Telephone burnin' at purposeful gates [D] When out of the doorway [G] the tentacle stretch
[Cm] Of a song that I know and [G] the world [D] moves in slow-mo
Straight to my head like the first cigarette of the day
[Eb] And it's you, and it's May, and we're sleeping through [G] the day
[C] And I'm five [G] years ago, and [Eb] three thousand miles [Bb] away
[C]
You [Dm] are half [D] time, a man of my caliber Stood in the street like a sleepwalking [G] teenager
No, and [D] I've dealt with this years [G] ago I took a hammer to every memento
But image on image, [Cm] like beads on a [Dm] rosary Pull through my head as [D] the music takes hold
[G] And the sickness hits, [D] I can work till I break [G] But I love the bones of you that I will never escape
[Eb] And it's you, [G] and it's May, [Eb] and we're sleeping through [G] the day
[C] And I'm five [G] years ago, [Eb] and three thousand miles [G] away
[Eb] And I can't [G] move my arms, [Eb] the fear that you [G] will wake
[C] And I'm [Eb] five [G] years ago, [Eb] and three thousand miles [C] away
[B] [D]

[G] And [Eb] I'm five [G] years ago, [Eb] and three thousand miles [G] away
And I'm five years ago, [Eb] and three thousand [G] miles away
[Eb] And it's you, [G] and it's May, [Eb] and we're sleeping through [G] the day
And I'm five years ago, [Eb] and three thousand [G] miles away
