D Dmaj9 G A
D Dmaj9 G A
D Dmaj7 G A
The absence of God will bring you comfort, baby
D Dmaj7 G F#m
and planning's for the poor so let's pretend that we're rich
Bm x 2 Asus4 A
and I'm not my body or what I choose to do with it
D Dmaj7 G A
Folk singers sing songs for the working, baby
D Dmaj7 G F#m
We're just recreation for all those doctors and those lawyers
Bm x 2
there's no relief for their heavy hearts
Asus4 A
cause they'll be losing bodies tonight
D Dmaj9 G A
D Dmaj7 G A
D D
Em A F#m Bm
And Rob says maybe love won't let you down
Em A F#m Bm
all of your failures are training grounds
Em F#m G A Bm A/C# A7
and just as your back's turned you'll be surprised he says
A
as your solitude subsides
D Dmaj7 G A
D Dmaj7
We could be daytime drunks if we wanted,
G A
we'd never get anything done that way baby
D Dmaj7 G F#m
And we'd still be ruled by our dueling perspectives
Bm x 2
and I'm not my story or perspective
Asus4 A
or the lies I'll tell you every time
D D7
Em A F#m Bm
And Rob says you love, love, love and then you die
Em F#m G A Bm A/C# A7 A
I've watched him while sleeping and seen him cry with closed eyes
D Dmaj7 G A
D Dmaj7 G A
D Dmaj7 G A
And you're not happy but you're funny and I'm tripping over my joy
D Dmaj7 G A
but I just keep on getting up again
D Dmaj7 G A
D Dmaj7 G F#m
Bm Bm Asus4 A
F#m Bm
Teach you how to swim
F#m Bm
you turn the bad in me into good again
Em F#m G A Bm A/C# A7 A
D D7
Em A F#m Bm
And I say there's trouble when everything is fine
Em A F#m Bm
the need to destroy things creeps up on me every time
Em F#m G A Bm A/C# A7
and just as love's silhouette appears
A D D7
I close my eyes and disappear with you tonight
F#m Bm
and something's got to change
F#m Bm
cause our love's the slowest moving train
Em F#m G A Bm A/C# A7 A
D
