Standard Tuning
Capo 2
C majorC
Thank you for the invite
FF C majorC
To dance on golden streets
C majorC
Leave the broken skyline
FF C majorC
And charcoal cloud debris
DmDm FF C majorC
I would likely join you if I weren't busy
DmDm FF C majorC
But tonight my confession list is long
G+G FF C majorC
I will sit back, relax, and hold my head to the sun
G+G FF C majorC
Sit back, relax, and hold my head to the sun.
C majorC
We will sing to thunder
FF C majorC
Clap as the earth shakes
C majorC
Hug under a hurricane
FF C majorC
As we bypass the fiery lake
DmDm FF C majorC
I will read my scripture in Dostoevsky
DmDm FF C majorC
Change my television to twenty three
G+G FF C majorC
I will sit back, relax and wait for what's coming to me
G+G FF C majorC
Sit back, relax and hold my head to the sea.
FF C majorC G+G C majorC
We will leave our sails on trees
FF C majorC G+G C majorC
While chariots swing by the breeze
FF C majorC G+G C majorC
Lift our lamps unto the streets
FF C majorC G+G DmDm
May all the kings and soldiers see
FF G+G C majorC
Our lives are lonely enough without destruction
DmDm FF
Calm your cares and families
G+G
And I will hold the morning for you
C majorC FF C majorC
Take the time for townships and classics to be read
C majorC FF C majorC
Finding all the soft skin that will fit in a feather bed
DmDm FF C majorC
Let me spread my paper and sleep for centuries
DmDm FF C majorC
The door will be there if you choose to return
G+G FF C majorC
I will sit back, relax and watch the mountaintops burn
G+G FF C majorC
Sit back, relax and wait for my voice to be heard.
FF C majorC G+G C majorC
We will leave our sails on trees
FF C majorC G+G C majorC
While chariots swing by the breeze

Lift our lamps unto the streets
FF C majorC G+G C majorC
May all the kings and soldiers see
DmDm FF G+G C majorC
All our lives are lonely enough without destruction

Calm your cares and families
G+G C majorC
And be part of division
DmDm FF G+G C majorC
All our lives are lonely enough without destruction
DmDm FF
Calm your cares and families
G+G
And I will hold the morning for you
G+G C majorC
