No, where's your strong beat?
I haven't played a solo and [Db] I don't expect to [Abm] or a duo either.
I think you gotta [G] have a shh shh shh.
[F] We're gonna play one more and I will be out at the emergency table later to say hello [Eb] and sign [C] things and hug but not shake hands because I grew up in California and your hands have germs.
[Ab]
[Eb] Not your hands personally because of who you are but [Bb] because they are hands.
[D] [E] This song is about how [Cm] when you are in a time in your life where you're [Em] not really worried about the hands because you're pretty certain that [Fm] death is lurking [Cm] just around the corner.
Why you're going to meet [Dbm] him [Gb] and you will have words [E] with him.

[A] [G]
[A] [D]
There's going to come a day when you [Em] feel better.

So from branch to branch, [Em]
lighter than the air.
[G]
Just when that day is coming, who can [A] say, who can say.
[D]
Our mother has [G] danced ever [D] since we found [G] her.

[G] In all the wrong directions.
