[Intro]
Em
[Verse 1]
Em G D C
An old bum pushes a shopping cart that he stole from Winn Dixie parking lot
Em G D C
It's 1:00am and I'm on my way home
Em G D C
I left there before it came to shouts, just in time to see him spit his apple out
Em G D C
Left your door and made a beeline for my own
Em G D C 2x
Em G D C
I tell you it's alright but I'm thinking fuck you anyway
Em G D C
You blame you for breaking promises, but I blame me for ever believing a word
you'd say
Em G D C
I got what I need but it's not with you, and for what I want, I don't have the
nerve
Em G D C
So I guess again it comes down to I get what I deserve
[Chorus]
Em G D C
And oh, don't be afraid just look around
Em G D C
And oh, Go on and say it, it's just a breath with a sound
Em G D C
And oh yea don't be afraid to fall
Em G D C
When we're on the shoulders of giants’ baby after all
Em G D C 2x
[Verse 2]
Em G D C
You smile as if I had nothing better to do, as if you were one of the chosen few
Em G D C
As if there were nothing cooler than you
Em G D
Still I know you by touch and I know you by smell And I know you by ways too
C
vulgar to tell
Em G D C
See, I guess I know a little all too well so that smile is fitting for you
[Chorus]
Em G D C
And oh, don't be afraid just look around
Em G D C
And oh, Go on and say it, it's just a breath with a sound
Em G D C
And oh yes don't be afraid to fall
Em G D C
When we're on the shoulders of giants’ after all
Em G D C 2x
[Verse 3]
Em G D
I don't sleep with my politics; I choose not to hate but I don't wear my heart
C
where my knees separate
Em G D
It's crotch propaganda, bat for both teams, and it's me not choosing sides
C
standing in between
Em G D C
An old bum pushes a shopping cart each notices the other and jumps with a start
Em G D C
It's 2:00am and I've found my way home
Em G D
Well, it's giants in slumber but it's sleep that won't stay It's singing harps
C
that got away
Em G D C
And I fold my body to fit this furniture, hit the lights and call it a day
[Chorus]
Em G D C
And oh, don't be afraid just look around
Em G D C
And oh, Go on and say it, it's just a breath with a sound
Em G D C
And oh don't be afraid to fall
Em G D C
When we're on the shoulders of giants’ after all
Em G D C
