Verse:
E minorEm               G+G
All the parts of me that lived inside

E minorEm                G+G
Are drowning in the sea of waking life

E minorEm                  G+G
They don't know their colors don't belong on the outside

E minorEm                  G+G
They don't know their colors don't belong


Chorus:
        C majorC            E minorEm
'til they're spread across the open road

        C majorC               E minorEm
'til they're spread across the asphalt on the open road

        C majorC                 A minorAm
'til they're streamin' in the wind like cassette tape or jellyfish

     C majorC                E minorEm       G+G
Long dark veins and records playing, memories...


Verse 2:
E minorEm                  G+G
All the things we yell don't mean a thing

       E minorEm               G+G
When we're spinnin' out of darkened meadow wind

       E minorEm               G+G
When we're flying like we're Mary's angels, through the shattered glass

    E minorEm                 G+G
When we find that tall dark shadow waiting there with outstretched hands
    E minorEm              G+G
He has given me a dress of red, and you, a skin of gray

     E minorEm                 G+G
We'll be twistin' here for hours, 'til the light will bring us day
