D MajorD
Hatred ,I hate the past
D MajorD                 FF   D MajorD
I can?t see anything at all, all I see is me
D MajorD
That?s clear enough
D MajorD              FF   D MajorD
And that?s whats important, to see me

D MajorD
My eyes can focus. My brain is talking
FF          D MajorD
Looks pretty good to me
D MajorD
My head?s on straight, my girlfriend's beautiful
FF          D MajorD
Looks pretty good to me


D MajorD
Sometimes I speak tonight there?s nothing to say
D MajorD
Sometimes we freak
   FF     D MajorD
And laugh all day


D MajorD
Hold these pages up to the light
D MajorD    FF           D MajorD
See the jacknife inside of the dream
D MajorD
A augmentedA railroad runs through the record stores at night
FF           D MajorD
Coming in for the deep freeze


D MajorD
Mary: a simple word,
D MajorD    FF         D MajorD
are you there in the cold country?
D MajorD
Your eyes so full, your head so tight
FF       D MajorD
Can?t you hear me?

D MajorD
Remember our talk that day on the phone?
D MajorD     FF           D MajorD
I was the door, and you were the station
D MajorD
With shattered glass and miles between us
D MajorD    FF           D MajorD
We still flew away in the conversation


D MajorD
My cup is full, and I feel okay
D MajorD      FF       D MajorD
The world is dull, but not today


D MajorD
She think?s she's a goddess
D MajorD       FF      D MajorD
She says she talks to the spirits
D MajorD
I wonder if she can talk to herself?
D MajorD     FF      D MajorD
If she can bear to hear it?


D MajorD
This is Eric?s trip
D MajorD         FF     D MajorD
We?ve all come to watch him slip
D MajorD
He?s slipping all the way to Texas
FF    D MajorD
Can you dig it?


D MajorD
I see with a glass eye the pavement view
D MajorD
A augmentedA shadow forming, across the fields rushing
FF     D MajorD
Thru me to you


D MajorD
We tore down the world, and put up four walls
  FF       D MajorD
I breathe in the myth
D MajorD
I?m over the city, fucking the future
  FF          D MajorD
I?m high and inside your kiss


D MajorD
We can?t see clear
D MajorD      FF    D MajorD
But what we see is a alright
D MajorD
We make up what we can?t hear
D MajorD      FF    D MajorD
And then we sing all night


D MajorD
Scattered pages and shattered lights
    FF          D MajorD
See a jackknife and see a dream
D MajorD
There?s something moving over there on the right
   FF         D MajorD
Like nothing I've never seen
