[B] _ _ [F#] _ _ [E] _ _ _ _
[B] _ _ _ [G#m] _ _ _ _ [B] _
_ _ _ [E] _ _ _ _ _
[B] _ [F#] Clearing webs [G#m] from the [E] hovel
[F#] _
A blistered hand [G#m] on the handle of a shovel
[B] _ [F#] I've been digging [G#m] too deep, I _
[E] always do _ _ _ _
[B] I [F#] see my face [G#m] on the surface _
[B] [F#] I look a lot like [E] Narcissus
[F#] _
A dark abyss [G#m] of an emptiness
Standing [E] on the edge of a drowning blue
_ [B] _
I look behind [E] my ears for the [B] green
_ And even my [D#m] sweat smells [C#m] clean
[D#m] Glare off [E] the [C#] wide hurts my [F#] _ eyes
[D#m] I [F#] gotta [B] get out of [F#] bed and get a hammer and a nail
Burn out of you, my [B] hands
[F#] I kiss my head, I think myself in [E] a jail
Now I [C#m] know refuge never [G#m] grows
From a chin and [E] a hand and a thoughtful [C#] pose
Gotta tend [E] the earth if you wanna roll
I [B] _
_ _ [G#m] _ _ _ _ _ [B] _
_ _ _ [E] _ _ _ _ [B] _
_ [F#] had a lot of good _ intentions _
Sit around for fifty years and then [E] collect a [F#] pension
Start seeing the road to [G#m] hell and just where [E] it _ _ starts
_ [F#] _
My life is more [G#m] than a [E] vision _
[B] The [F#] sweetest part is acting [G#m] after making a decision
[F#] _ Start seeing [G#m] the whole as a sum of [E] its _ _ parts
[G#m] I _ [B] look behind [E] my ears for the [G#]
green
[B] And even [E] my sweat [D#m] smells [C#m] clean
[D#m] Glare off [E] the [C#] wide hurts my eyes
I [F#] gotta [B] get out of [F#] bed and get a hammer and a nail
Burn out of you, my [E] hands
[F#] I kiss my head, I think myself [E] in a jail
Now [C#m] I know _ refuge never [G#m] grows
From a chin [E] and a hand and a thoughtful [C#] pose
Gotta tend [D#] the [E] earth if you wanna roll
This _
[B] _ _ _ _ [G#m] _ _ _ [B] _
_ _ [F#] _ _ [E] _ _ _ _
[F#] _ _ _ [G#m] part of a global [E] life
[B] I found [F#] myself becoming more immobile
When I think the little girl [G#m] in the world can't [E] do _ anything _ _ _
[F#] _ I did the nation, my community _
The street person, my _ responsibility
If I ever care [D#m] in the world, I have a gift [E] _ to play _ _ _ _
[G#m] _ I look behind [E] my ears for the [G#m]
green
[B] And [E] even my sweat [D#m] smells [C#m] clean
[D#m] Glare [E] off the [C#] wide hurts [F#] my eyes
_ _ I gotta get out of bed and get a [E] hammer and a [F#] nail
Burn out of you, my [E] hands
[F#] I kiss my head, I think myself [E] in a jail
Now [C#m] I know refuge never [G#m] grows
From a chin [E] and a hand and a [C#] thoughtful pose
Gotta [D#m] tend the [E] earth if you wanna roll _ _
