[G] [C]
[G]
[F]
[G]
Want [C] to make something with color and light [G] Want to give up the ghost and increase the
height of [F] the sails in my back and the wind in my [Em] hair
If [G] it's not in this place then it's not anywhere [C] Cause you're going, going, going, gone
You [G] are sinking, shrinking, blinking On [F] a tiny ship on a tiny [Dm] sea
[G] Don't come back at all if you don't come back to me
This [C] is like the time we slept by the falls [G] Or the time you passed out and woke up in
the hall of [F] that shitty motel That was above the bar [G] that was shitty itself
I had taken your car, you're [C] falling, falling, falling
[G] Star, you are tangoing madly with all that you are
And you're [F] nothing if you don't have diamonds [B] or gold
You [G] are nothing if you don't have a hand to hold
You're [C] a gambling man, that fact to see plain
[G] You lost part of your heart between Hermosa and Maine
And [F] the rest of it went to the poetry [G] girl She wrote you the sweetest sonnet in the world
Now [C] you sing it like a symphony [G] at the top of your lungs
Some say it makes you feel free, [F] well I recall that feeling
Like exploding stars [G] in the middle of summer on the hood of your car
You're in [C] a suicide, suicide, suicide [G] squeeze
You're drunken, you're speaking that drunk Christianese
[F] You're breaking down now with the greatest of [G] ease
And you're falling and licking your own bloody knees
You're [C] on a killing, killing, killing [G] spree
You're loaded and locked in that old white oak tree
And [F] the chances ain't good, I give you no [G] guarantee
But one in a million seems better than dying [C] to me
It [G]
seems better [Em] than dying [F] to me
