Verse:

G
    I'll be the grapes fermented
D                           Em               C
bottled and served with the table set in my finest suit

like a perfect gentlemen

G
    I'll be the fire escape that's
D            Em                   
bolted to the ancient brick
      C
where you will sit and contemplate your day


Instrumental  (Repeat intro)


Verse:


G
    I'll be the waterwings that
D                    Em              
save you if you start drowning 
      C
in an open tab when your judgement's on the brink

G
    I'll be the phonograph that
D                   Em                   
plays your favorite albums back 
        C                                  Am
as your lying there drifting off to sleep

G
    I'll be the platform shoes and
 D                   Em               
undo what heredity's done to you 
            C
You won't have to strain to look into my eyes

G
    I'll be your winter coat
D                           Em                            C
buttoned and zipped straight to the throat With the collar up so

you won't catch a cold

Bridge:

Em                      G                           C                                   
    I want to take you far from the cynics in this town
                    Em
And kiss you on the mouth
                      C                             G
We'll cut out bodies free from the tethers of this scene,
                      Em
Start a brand new colony
                        C                                G                      
Where everything will change, We'll give ourselves new names
            Em
identities erased
                        C                     G
The sun will heat the grounds under our bare feet in this
                 D                  Em     C     G     D
brand new colony,  this brand new colony


Outro:

Em     C           G                        D
Everything will change...

Em     C           G                        D

Em     C           G                        D
Everything will change...

Em     C           G                        D

[end on  Em]
