[D] [Em] [F] [D]
[N] You guys been snipe hunting over here?
Yeah.
They pulled that trick on me when I was a kid too.
And we still pull it from time to time on buddies.
You don't know any better.
How does that happen to you?
This isn't about that.
This is about those people that get under your [Eb] skin.
And just [G] forget about it.
But it's a new one I've been working on.
I think I'm going to call it a snipe hunt.
[Dm] Snipe hunt.
I
[D] flung the door open, let the heat [G] rise.
Heat up the world, cause I thought it was mine.
[D] And all the while all of my plants [A] froze inside.
Cause there's only so [G] much to [D] go around.
And it took me some tries and a whole lot of kidding.
[G] When the lesson arrived, it only took me a minute [D] to learn.
There are some things that are [A] all freezing.
I can [G] tell you a few that [D] I've found.
[G] Hate is a thing that can poison your veins.
[D] And get in your eyes when you're sweating on stage.
[A] Shifting around four o'clock on [G] the wall.
To tell you it's [Em] [Dm] almost over.
[D] [G] Spins to keep rolling in times for the birds.
[Dm] To chirp in your ears on the rumors they [A] heard.
Flying above all the good in this [G] world.
Sitting [Em] on cattle [D] and clover.
Now when I was a young boy, I thought I could [G] track.
And an old timer sat down, riched me a [D] sack.
And he told me all of the knowledge [A] I lacked.
On an ornery old [G] thing [D] called a snipe.
He picked me up on a Friday and he dropped me in [G] Charlie.
Told me when he'd be back and went off to party.
[D] And sat on the hill like a [A] Jeremiah Johnson.
And [G] froze my dumb ass off [D] all night.
And that's the way that I feel.
When I look at our [G] past and the handshakes you gave me.
You'd call them that.
[D] And the snickers you tried to pass off [A] as laughs.
And the way your [G] eyes never [D] met mine.
[G]
Paranoia's a thing that you make in wind sleep.
[D] Ain't a thing you recall, ain't a habit [A] you keep.
One old boy's nightmare is another [G] fool's dream.
It's all in the way [D] that you hold it.
[G]
Hotels are lonely I reckon I know.
[D] I've spent many nights in between shows.
[A] Watching as paint dries on the [G] wall.
On a booger that just [D] painted over.
Life reminds me of a card game you played as a [G] kid.
Where you laid down the deck till you got to the end.
[D] Early on there's a joker got lost beneath [A] the fridge.
Over [G] time all the queens moved [D] in with him.
And I'd say the boy had him an absolute [G] ball.
But he ruined the card game for all us involved.
[D] And let it eat at me like a zoo [A] in Georgia.
I [G] hope it don't [D] do that again.
