Verse- D Bb G A cold and wet November dawn D Bb C where there are no barking sparrows D F A(A7) just emptiness to dwell apon I fell into a winter slide and ended up the kind of kid who goes down chutes too narrow just eking out my mealy pies Chorus- G D A But i learned fast how to D keep my head up cause i G D Bb A know ive got this side of me that G D A D wants to grab the yoke from the pilot and just G D F A fly the whole mess into the sea Verse- Another slow train to the coast some brand new gory art from way on high I sink and then I swim all night I watch the ice melt on the glass while the eloquent young pilgrams pass and leave behind their trail emploring us all not to fail Chorus- Off course i was raised to gather courage from those lofty tails so tried and true if you're able then i'd suggest it cause this modern thought can get the best of you Bridge- (this is a bit tricky) Bm D This rather simple epitaph G A G C Can save your hide your failing mind Bm D Fate isn't what we're up agaisnt G A G C There's no design no flaws to find G A G C There's no design no flaws to find Solo- Same chords as verse Chorus End on D
