D MajorD         Asus4Asus4
Piles and piles of old magazines
E minor 7Em7          G+G
Windows locked up and hidden from the street.
D MajorD          Asus4Asus4
In a crawlspace, forgotten money.
    E minor 7Em7            G+G
People tensing and waiting to come back home.
    D MajorD    Asus4Asus4      E minor 7Em7
You can feel the tension in the house
   G+G             D MajorD     Asus4Asus4
the moment you walk through the door.
     E minor 7Em7       G+G
Sudden madness allow me in again.

     D MajorD      Asus4Asus4     E minor 7Em7        G6G6
When the first train flies past the house, miles away
       D MajorD             Asus4Asus4
the screaming starts and it feels like a minefield,
   E minor 7Em7         G+G
the neighbors silently hiding in the shadows.
     D MajorD          Asus4Asus4
There's a person locked in, behind that door -
     E minor 7Em7        G+G
Don't let anybody catch you turning the handle.
    D MajorD      Asus4Asus4           E minor 7Em7        G+G
It's a long, long night. It's going to be an awful and lonely night.

        D MajorD           D/Db
Well...you can blot out the years and abandon the jungle
E7E7            G+G
Cover up the tapes and refuse to look back,
     D MajorD     Asus4Asus4       E minor 7Em7   G+G
but your own right hand is not gonna save your soul.
       D MajorD          D/Db
You have been followed! Ah, the mechanics.
     E7E7           G+G
All the reactions that seem to attach themselves.
      D MajorD          Asus4Asus4           E minor 7Em7     G+G
It's been a very very very long year and it's gonna be an even longer night.

            D MajorD         Asus4Asus4
And then a screen door slams; the windows break.
       E minor 7Em7           G+G
A augmentedA woman just jumps and scrapes at the hood of a car.
     D MajorD          Asus4Asus4          E minor 7Em7        G+G
When the car backs up into a streetlight, all of the neighbors call the cops.
      D MajorD         Asus4Asus4
She falls off and the car speeds away
        E minor 7Em7         G+G
Headed for the border of a far away state.
      D MajorD                Asus4Asus4            E minor 7Em7
It's gonna mean an hour of freedom with the radio and quarter-filled gas tank.
           G+G
And a quarter filled gas tank
          D MajorD
With the high beams on
          Asus4Asus4 A augmentedA
And the windows down...
