Verse 1:
A                     D/F#*
Sleeping in the silo, talking in the stairs
            G
How to get away from here? How to be a tender man?
A                        D/F#*
Walking on a tight rope, funny little game
             G
How to skip past the stream? How to climb the olive tree?

Somehow in the dead of night, we're like bunny and the reptile
A                    D/F#
I need something you don't seem to need
          G                                       Gmaj7
A sweeter goodbye, I'm like a fruit bat hangin' tight

Verse 2:
A                     D/F#*
See you on a red eye, funny little game

How to make you disappear? How to make you reappear?
        A                        D/F#*
I'll be softer like your mother, olive in the stream
G
You look like a portrait of your dad
