Verse:
F#m
When the cardboard cowboy dreams and his cornucopia
F#m
Opens up the sky and blows my mind to the corners of
C                                G
Far in bar rent shine  running beneath high trembling dove
F#m
Leaving me transfixed and raving in the wake of the hammer blow
B D
 
Verse:
Gm
On my way out of town I stumbled on the shards of a hungry cree
Gm
And further up into the backdoor circle, where the power and crystal sea
F#m                    B
Transistorized by all [hallows] rangers
       F#m               B          F# C#
On the strength of an anguished sigh
G#m
And a paranoid re-entry blanket flies sleeping on a sling shot ride
E D Em D Em D Em D Em D Em D A
 
Verse:
Am
As my patchwork world quilt unravels, I ramble yes too high
From the looping antrobus with his magic meant so high
F
Shining out a masquerade from dawn to alpha plus
Watching mashed potatoes dribble in the heat of reality's earth
Em
For the intro doom from  running to him It wasn't ever so
Turns the wall into the sky above me, there is no place to
C
run
