[D] [Bm] [E]
[A] [D]
[G] [D]
[A]
[D] When [E] the river bends and [B] runs dry
She closes [D] her eyes
And licks her [E] ear to the shirt
[B] And listens to [A] the hollow water
[D] Light and shade
The mirror
Uh-huh
Has [G] [A] stopped
[D] He can't hear her Uh-uh
She stops in a box Apparently
She's unhurt
And with a little bit of change
Ooh, feels good
She washes her wings in the dirt
The bar is filled with angels
Cause the world is turned upside down
[E] [D] All of you have been walking on your head
Since the day your feet touched the ground
[Bm] Any [A] day
[C#m] Any day will go
[B] Any day
[C#]
Any [C#m] day will go
[C] Oh, [C] [B]

Oh, [A#]
oh, oh
[Am] [D]
Mm -hmm
[E] When [D] he knocks on the door
Someone show him how
I've seen him before
I know him somehow
Why does he stick to my fingers?
Why does this look [B] like his soul?
[D] They could just make him a heaven or hell
Why don't they?
I don't know
[Em]
[D] What do they want with these angels?
Why don't they take them to Reno?
Nobody ever comes for them
They're all inside of the casino
[Em]
[D] Look at them poking like flightless birds
Falling from paper plates
Oh, oh, oh
The heavenly earth bound
But the spirit cannot wait
[Em]
To [D] fly like a flamingo
[C]
To [D] fly like a flamingo
[G]
[D] Fly, fly, fly, go
Fly, [A] fly,
[C] [D] fly, go
Fly, [A] fly, fly, go

Love
Oh, yeah.

[D] Oh, yeah.
Oh, [G] yeah.
[D] [C]
[D] Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.
