Cm7Cm7 FF
Shot from the green cannon of late spring
Cm7Cm7 FF
The map on your lap unfolding
Cm7Cm7 FF
Some states don't rave(?) in a blur
Cm7Cm7 FF
Toothpaste across your reflection in muddy water
Cm7Cm7 FF
We had truckstop cassettes and Liza Ks and Patsy Cline
Cm7Cm7 FF
Send "Strange" in the desert every night at nine
Cm7Cm7 FF
Purple light on your face in the canyon at dusk
Cm7Cm7 FF Cm7Cm7
I thought I might as well go blind
FF
I thought I might as well go blind
Bb majorBb Cm7Cm7 FF
I thought my eyes had seen it all
Bb majorBb Cm7Cm7 FF
I thought my eyes had seen it all
Bb majorBb Cm7Cm7 AbAb Eb MajorEb Bb majorBb
Then they lie to you in your head that our language can't capture it all
Cm7Cm7 FF
But I thought my eyes had seen it all
Cm7Cm7 FF
Slept all night in the dry scrub
Cm7Cm7 FF
Crawled from the thicket with a new love
Cm7Cm7 FF
Sleep in our eyes and I pulled a bug off your back
Cm7Cm7 FF
You said "Leave me alone. Just let nature attack us"
Cm7Cm7 FF
We had truckstop cassettes of Smokey Robinson and Kinks
Cm7Cm7 FF
The tape hit the player just as we hit Cruisers Creek
Cm7Cm7 FF Cm7Cm7 FF
Our time was turning dusty yellow but the sun on your forehead shone pink
Cm7Cm7 FF
I thought the worst was over
FF
Just goes to show I shouldn't think
Bb majorBb Cm7Cm7 FF
I thought my eyes had seen it all
Bb majorBb Cm7Cm7 FF
I thought my eyes had seen it all
Bb majorBb Cm7Cm7 AbAb Eb MajorEb Bb majorBb
They made me desperation down this road and just down this hall but
Cm7Cm7 FF
I thought my eyes had seen it all
Cm7Cm7 FF G+G Bb majorBb
Bb majorBb Cm7Cm7 AbAb
The tape ate the player ate the tape ate me
Eb MajorEb Bb majorBb
The tape ate the player ate the tape ate me
Cm7Cm7 AbAb Eb MajorEb
The tape ate the player ate the tape ate me
Bb majorBb Cm7Cm7 AbAb Eb MajorEb
I promised you the best: a sparkling mirage at worst, a sea to another
Bb majorBb
shining sea
Cm7Cm7 AbAb Eb MajorEb Bb majorBb
The tape ate the player ate the tape ate me
