Bm A1 G1 Em1
i think i'll go home and mull this over
D1 A1 G1
before i cram it down my throat
Bm A1 G1 Em1
at long last it's crashed, the colossal mass
D1 A1 G1
has broken up into bits in my moat.
Em2 D2 Em2 D2
lift the mattress off the floor
Em2 D2
walk the cramps off
A2 G2
go meander in the cold
Em2 D2
hail to your dark skin
Em2 D2
hiding the fact you're dead again
Em2 D2 A2 G2
underneath the powerliness seeking shade
G2
far above our heads are the icy heights that contain all reason
Bm A1 G1 Em1
it's a luscious mix of words and tricks
D1 A1 G1
that let us bet when you know we should fold
Bm A1 G1 Em1
on rocks i dreamt of where we'd stepped
D1 A1 G1
and of the whole mess of roads we're now on.
Em2 D2 Em2 D2
hold your glass up, hold it in
Em2 D2 A2 G2
never betray the way you've always known it is.
Em2 D2 Em2
one day i'll be wondering how
D2 Em2
i got so old just wondering how
D2 A2 G2
i never got cold wearing nothing in the snow.
G2
this is way beyond my remote concern
of being condescending
Bm G1 D1 A1 Bm G1 D1
all these squawking birds won't quit.

D|-0-0-0-----0---|
A|---------------|
E|---------------|
Also, whenever an G follows and A chord, this is played to bridge the chords:

E|-----------------3---| E|----------------3---|
B|-2--3-3-3/5------0---| B|-2--3--3/5------0---|
G|-2--x-x-x-x--0-0-0---| G|-2--2--x-x--0-0-0---|
D|-2-----------0-0-0---| D|-2--2-------0-0-0---|

I think i'll go home and mull this over
Before i cram it down my throat
At long last it's crashed, it's colossal mass
Has broken up into bits in my moat.
Lift the mattress off the floor
Walk the cramps off
Go meander in the cold
Hail to your dark skin
Hiding the fact you're dead again
Undeneath the power lines seeking shade
Far above our heads are the icy heights that contain all reason
It's a luscious mix of words and tricks
That let us bet when you know we should fold
On rocks i dreamt of where we'd stepped
And the whole mess of roads we're now on.
Hold your glass up, hold it in
Never betray the way you've always known it is.
One day i'll be wondering how
I got so old just wondering how
I never got cold wearing nothing in the snow.
This is way beyond my remote concern
Of being condescending
All these squawking birds won't quit.
Building nothing, laying bricks.
