[E] [F#] [B] [E]
I [A] hear you [B] talking when I'm [E] on the street.
Your [A] mouth don't [F#] move [B] but I can hear [E] you speak.
[A]
What's the matter with this boy?
He don't come around no more.
[B]
Is he checking out the shore?
Is he gonna close the door [A] on me?
[E] I [A]
always [F#] hear [B] noises on [E] the street.
[A] I don't want to [F#m] shout [B] but I can't hardly [E]
speak.
[A]
I was making love to a distant friend of mine.
[B]
I can see the snake is still coming around.
But you better run away [A] from me.
[E] [B]
I'm licking my rocks off my
[A]
[E] table.
[A] I'm living through [B] the days of [E] iron schemes.
[A] Love being [F#] flushed [B] out of my [E] pocket keys.
My [A]
head is full of holes.
[B]
Every time you take me home.
I can't even feel the [A] pain no [E] more.
[B]
I'm dreaming.
I'm dreaming.
I'm licking my rocks off [A] while I'm [E] sleeping.
[F#] Yes, I will.
I can't describe [C#m]
the snake.
[A#m]
[F#] It's so mesmerizing all at [C#m] the same time.
[B] The [A] sun shimmers.
[B] The day lights out [E] on me.
[A] Facing [F#] [B] shadows filled with [E] mystery.
I'm waiting [A] for the overlord.
To come out on the dirt [B] road.
Even though you're kicking mud.
I can't even feel the [A] pain no [E] more.
[B]
I'm dreaming.
I'm dreaming.
I'm licking my [A] rocks off while I'm [E] sleeping.
Yes, I [B]
will.
I can't even feel the pain no more.
I'm licking my rocks off while [A] I'm [E] sleeping.
[B]
I'm licking my rocks off while I'm sleeping.
