E minorEm
I wish, I hope, I wonder
A augmentedA
Where you're at so metimes
E minorEm
Is y our back against the wall?
A augmentedA
Or just ac ross the line
E minorEm
Have you been sta nding in the rain
A augmentedA
Reciting nursery rh ymes
E minorEm A augmentedA
Trying to re call some long lost kind of pe ace of mind
D MajorD
Peace of m ind
G+G
Try spending the n ight sometime
D MajorD
All alone in a fr ozen room
A augmentedA
Afterneath you've l ain
E minorEm
Your saddle in the r ain

I dreamed they locked God up
A augmentedA
Down in my bas ement

And he wai ted there for me
A augmentedA
To have this acci dent

A augmentedA
And eat me like a sacra ment

And I just st ood there like I do
A augmentedA
Then I came and w ent
D MajorD
I came and w ent

Or come and share the p ain

My Saddle's in the r ain.

If I'm his fri end just yet

His eyes and m outh were widely open

And his j aw was set

Like he'd f ell off a cliff

And hadn't hit the bo ttom yet

I wish he wo uldn't pull those things on me

Without a n et
