Look beyond the [D] broken bottles, [A] [D] past the rotting [B] wooden stairs,
Look out to find our [D] honey centers, [A] not everyone can [E] live like millionaires.
[Bm] [D]
[A] [B]
Look through the [D] air-conditioned walls, [A] tear up the floorboards, strip the [B] paint,
Go over every [D] inch of space with [A] the patience [E] of a saint.
Grab your hat, get your [B] coat, [D] your cellar door [A] is an open [B] throat.
Look past [D] the kitchen cabinets, [A]
go through the chest of [B] drawers,
[D] Scrutinize the casements, [A]
rip the varnish off the [B] doors,
Pick up the [D] laughing photographs, [A]
they're here [B] somewhere or other,
Take what you [D] can carry, [A]
but let me tell [E] you brother,
Still waters go stagnant, [B] bodies float, and the [D] cellar door [A] is an open [B] throat.
