Verse:

It's only when your poison spins into the life you'd hoped to live

and suddenly you wake up in a shaken panic now

You had set me up like a lamb to slaughter

Garbo as a farmer's daughter

Unbelievable, the gospel according to who?

I lay right down

Chorus:

All your sad and lost apostles

hum my name and flare their nostrils

Choking on the bones you tossed to them

now I'm not one to sit and spin

because living well's the best revenge

Baby, I am calling you on that

Verse:

Don't turn your talking points on me.

History will set me free

The future is ours and you don't even rate a footnote now!

So who's chasing you? Where did you go?

You disappear mid-sentence

In a judgement crisis I see my in and go for it

You weakened shill.

Chorus:

All your sad and lost apostles

hum my name and flare their nostrils

Choking on the bones you tossed to them

now I'm not one to sit and spin

because living well is the best revenge

and baby, I am calling you on that

Verse:

You savor your dying breath

I forgive but I don't forget

You work it out, let's hear that argument again

Camera three... GO NOW!

Chorus:

All your sad and lost apostles

hum my name and flare their nostrils

Choking on the bones you tossed to them

now I'm not one to sit and spin

because living well is the best revenge

and baby, I am calling you on that

Baby, I am calling you on that

End on B

After the beginning part there are these series of chords :

And then the chorus:

Heaven's yours Heavens yours Heavens yours...etc

There there is this part:

When I'm moving too fast Where's my new address?

Lyrics:

It's been pretty simple so far, vacation in Athens is calling me

And knock, knock, knock on wood, I thought I'd left you behind

Heaven is yours, heaven is yours, heaven's yours where I live

The thought of the catacombs left my soul at home

This letter never sent

And it's so far, it's so dark, i'm so lost

Heaven's yours, heaven's yours, heaven's yours where I live

(Another story, another story for a while, someone show me)

When I'm moving too fast, where's my new address?

The water is evening now, the catacombs are filling in

If my soul was made of stone, no, not, not so dark, dark

And it's so far, it's so dark, i'm so lost

And it's so far, it's so far, it's so far

Heaven's yours, heaven's yours, heaven's yours where I live

(Another story, another story for a while, someone show me)

Heaven's yours, heaven's yours, heaven's yours where I live

Staring Down The Barrel of The Middl Distance

Verse:

E D2 x However many times necessary

Pre-Chorus Chords:

A5 G5 x How ever many times necessary

Chorus Chords:

(All these patterns just happen many times over)

Now the hope for the future took a pounding in the parking lot

And the answer for today is all I got

When your name is called the lights went down

The time is the essence excuse me

And I'm blinking at the vanishing point of what I thought

Staring down the barrel of the middle distance

God knows I've tried

I close my eyes

I greet despair to a standard prayer

If you call for the future I don't care

And I turn you round to face me here

There's a compass raised with a familiar tone

With a voice that needles me to the bone

Staring down the barrel of the middle distance

God knows I've tried

I close my eyes

Whose position shifts cause its been effect

If you can't hit play cause the button sticks

Ignorance is bliss, I can't say

There's a compass raised with familiar tone

With a voice that needles you to the bone

You're left with chaos, static and delay

Staring down the barrel of the middle distance

God knows I've tried

I close my eyes

Staring down the barrel of the middle distance

God knows I've tried

I close my eyes

Intro:

Verse→ Phiên khúc

Mr. Richards, your position is a messenger pigeon,

left behind you when the camp moved on.

You thought that you had listened but the words had never crystallized,

into a truth that you might own, hey hey

Mr Richards your decision, pay attention pay attention

Verse→ Phiên khúc

Mr. Richards your forgiven for a narrow lack of vision,

but the firesare still raging on...

The public's got opinions and these consequences border on the compound that

razed where zealots sang, hey, hey

Mr. Richards, your decision, pay attention, pay attention

So listen, your intention, sign the paper, stamp the ribbon,

You're mistaken if you think we'll just forget.

You can thump your chest and rattle, stand in front of your piano but,

We know, what's going on, Yes, we know what's going on,

We're the children of the choir hey,

And we know what's going on.

Verse→ Phiên khúc

Mr. Richards your conviction, had us cheering in the kitchen,

now the jury's eating pigeon pie,

So tell me how is prison, have they taught you how to listen?,

We've begun to bridge the schism, pay attention pay attention,

Mr. Richards your decision, pay attention, pay attention.

You can thump your chest and rattle,stand in front of your piano but,

We know what's going on, Yes we know what's going on,

We're the children of the choir hey, from the compound fire hey,

And we know what's going on,

Yes we know what's going on.

Notes:

In the verse it seems that Peter does not hit the high e string but he

strums every chord once and then the stays at the melodic strings til the

next chord.

If the storm doesn't kill me

the government will

I've gotta get that out of my head

It's a new day today and the coffee is strong

I finally got some rest

So a man's put to task and challenges

I was taught to hold my head high

Collect what is mine,

Make the best of what today has

Houston is filled with promise

Laredo's a beautiful place

and Galveston sings like that song that I loved

Its meaning has not been erased

And so there are claims forgiven

And so there are things that are gone

Houston is filled with promise

Laredo is a beautiful place

and Galveston sings like that song that I loved

Its meaning has not been erased

And some things, they fall to the wayside

Their memory is yet to be stilled

Belief has not failed me

And so I am put to the test

-------------------------------------------------------------------

New Test Leper

I can't say that I love Jesus

that would be a hollow claim.

He did make some observations

and I'm quoting them today.

"Judge not lest ye be judged."

what a beautiful refrain.

The studio audience disagrees.

Have his lambs all gone astray?

Call me a leper

"You are lost and disillusioned!"

what an awful thing to say.

I know this show doesn't matter.

It means nothing to me.

I thought I might help them understand

but what an ugly thing to see.

"I am not an animal"

subtitled under the screen.

Call me a leper

{Bridge}:

When I tried to tell my story

They cut me off to take a break.

I sat silent 5 commercials

I had nothing left to say

The talk show host was index-carded

All organized and blank

The other guests were scared and hardened

What a sad parade.

What a sad parade

Call me a leper

Let's put our heads together

and start a new country up.

Our father's father's father tried,

erased the parts he didn't like.

Let's try to fill it in,

Take a picture here,

This land is the land of ours,

this river runs red over it.

And we gathered up our friends,

We knee-skinned it you and me;

underneath the river bed.

This is where we walked,

this is where we swam.

Take a picture here,

Turning on the TV and what do I see?

A pageantry of empty gestures all lined up for me – wow!

I’d have thought by now we would be ready to proceed

But a tearful hymn to tug the heart

And a man-sized wreath – ow!

Throw it on the fire

Throw it in the air

Kick it out on the dance-floor like you just don’t care, oh

Give me some

Wave the palms, still the arms, fists in the air

A motorcade of a night-string(?) shows the people that you care – ow!

Nature abhors a vacuum but what’s between your ears?

Your judgement cluttered with fearful thoughts

A headlights and a deer – ow!

Throw it on the fire

Throw it in the air

Kick it out on the dance-floor like you just don’t care, oh

Give me some

Riff1

Well I’m not deceived by pomp and odious conceit

But a tearful hymn to tug the heart

And a man-sized wreath-ow!

Throw it on the fire

Throw it in the air

Kick it out on the dance-floor like you just don’t care, oh

Look at what I’ve found

Everybody look around

Everybody looking like they just don’t care

Throw it on the fire

Throw it in the air

Kick it out on the dance-floor like you just don’t care, oh

Give me some

Did you never call? I waited for your call.

These rivers of suggestion are driving me away.

The trees will bend, the cities wash away

The city on the river there is a girl without a dream.

I'm sorry.

Eastern to Mountain, third party call, the lines are down

The wise man built his words upon the rocks

But I'm not bound to follow suit.

The trees will bend, the conversation's dimmed.

Go build yourself another home, this choice isn't mine.

I'm sorry.

Did you never call? I waited for your call.

These rivers of suggestion are driving me away.

The ocean sang, the conversation's dimmed.

Go build yourself another dream, this choice isn't mine.

On the Fly

You said that loving me was falling off a log

You always had a way with words

I"m in a barrel over Niagra Falls

I wonder if I am defaced

If I asked of you just one wish

Would you turn on me and take the fifth

Your off again on some epic celebration

Shooting barrels full of fish

You found another hole to waltz into

You found another car to crash

I figured if out that if you served me up

Another of this shall pass

Its easy laugh off easy to brush aside

We"re living our lives we"re here on the fly

Its easy laugh off easy to brush aside

We"re living our lives we"re here on the fly

And I just happened by

I stood there naked by the trains again

Frozen stock still in the yard

A Heron waiting for the fish to jump

I never let down my guard

I"ve been exclusive when it comes to you

I don"t receive at all

I wished I felt the same when you called me late

I almost wished you didn"t call

God knows what I"m looking for

And God knows what I am

Cause Even Jesus had his reservations

I won"t be doubting you again

Its easy laugh off easy to brush aside

We"re living our lives we"re here on the fly

Its easy laugh off easy to brush aside

We"re living our lives we"re here on the fly

And I just happened by

I"m living my life, I"m here on the fly

And I just happened by

MAPS AND LEGENDS

He's not to be reached, he's to be reached.

Called the fool and the company,

On his own where he'd rather be.

Where he ought to be, he sees what you can't see, can't you see that?

Maybe he's caught in the legend

maybe he's caught in the mood.

Maybe these maps and legends

Have been misunderstood.

Down the way the road's divided,

Paint me the places you have seen.

Those who know what I don't know

refer to the yellow, red and green

Maybe he's caught in the legend

maybe he's caught in the mood.

Maybe these maps and legends

Have been misunderstood.

He's not to be reached, he's to be reached. (4 times)

The map that you painted didn't seem real.

He just sings whatever he's seen

Point to the legend, point to the east,

Point to the yellow, red and green

Maybe he's caught in the legend,

maybe he's caught in the mood.

Maybe these maps and legends

Have been misunderstood, been misunderstood. (Maps and legends)

(Maps and legends) Is he to be reached? He's not to be reached.

(Maps and legends) Is he to be reached? He's not to be reached anymore.

Children look up, all they hear is sky-blue, bells ringing

And the train conductor says

"Take a break Driver 8, Driver 8 take a break

We can reach our destination, but we're still a ways away"

Way to seal the hated heat.

Way to put myself to sleep.

Way to shield the hated heat.

Way to put myself, my children to sleep.

He piloted this song in a plane like that one.

She is selling faith on the Go Tell crusade.

Locomotive 8, Southern Crescent, hear the bells ring again.

Field to weed is lookin' thin

"Horse To Water"

I could have kept my head down

I might have kept my mouth shut

I should have held my own,

You lead a horse to water and you watch him drown.

SAME PROGRESSION AGAIN:

You're only as big as your battles.

Rattle my cage with your shadow.

I'm a phantom-weight with a mouth full of feathers,

Don't you know that what comes around goes around?

I'm not that easy,

I am not your horse to water.

I hold my breath I come around, round, round.

VERSE PROGRESSION AGAIN:

Don't darken my doorstep again,

You're mixing up living in chin-chin,

You're mixing up lose with win-win,

You lead a horse to water and you watch him drown.

You stumble on glass top table,

TV's chewing shock-gone cable

Pump me up a beanstalk fable

And I'll call this entertainment

'cause Humpty's falling down.

CHORUS:

I'm not that easy,

I am not your horse to water.

I hold my breath I come around, round, round.

VERSE

Pick a fight an ultra-buzzy bubble

Friday night fuckin' fried-up pub crawl

Phantom-weight with a mouth full of feathers,

Don't you know that what comes around goes around?

CHORUS

I'm not that easy,

I am not your horse to water.

I hold my breath I come around, round, round.

It's not that easy

I am not your horse to water

I hold my breath, I come around, round, round

ENDING

It's going down, down, down

This runaround, round, round

Is bound to pound

The daylights out of you!

Cos if heaven does exist with a kickin' playlist

I don't want to miss it at the end of the world

Hey steady steady, hey steady steady

I don't wanna go till I'm good and ready

It's on my mind, it's in my mind

It's what I found, it's what I find

(Same progression as above)

It's on my mind, it's in my mind

It's what I found, oh my my my

When I spin my way right through it grates enthusiast Jack Pruett

As the moths circle the moon, as you're circling the room

Music will provide the light you cannot resist

you cannot resist, you cannot resist

And the weblogs that get tangled as you bully and you wangle

When you walk up in Seattle, where you fought the nascent battle

You threw the thread and throttle let us raise another bottle

Raise another bottle, raise another bottle

Because death is pretty final, I'm collecting vinyl

I'm gonna DJ at the end of the world

(SAME CHORD PROGRESSIONS AS MENTIONED ABOVE, BASICALLY)

Hey steady steady, hey steady steady

I don't wanna go till I'm good and ready

It's on my mind, it's in my mind

It's what I found, it's what I find

It's on my mind, it's in my mind

It's what I found, oh my my my

Hey steady steady, hey steady steady

I don't wanna go till I'm good and ready

Hey steady steady, hey steady steady

I don't wanna go till I'm good and ready

Music will provide the light you cannot resist

You cannot resist, you cannot resist

Yeah

Riff

Here comes that awful feeling again

Welcome the ugly animal.

I hold my breath to what you sing,

My pyro acrobat ball and chain,

I'm not afraid, I messed it, messed it, messed it, messed it up

I've got my telescope head in the haystack

I'm getting tired of your dodgeball circus act

Put pepper in my coffee, I forgot to bark on command

Riff

Here comes that awful feeling again

Make way for monster jealousy

The strong man kicked sand into my breakfast cereal bowl

I'd spelled your name with Oatios,

he messed it, messed it, messed it, messed it up

I've got my telescope head in the haystack

I'm getting tired of your dodgeball circus act

Put pepper in my coffee, I forgot to bark on command

| | | | | | | | | |

(you're mean, mean, mean

you tease, tease, tease me)

Riff

If I were you I'd really run from me

I really really wish that I were you

When I get loose I'll climb a treee

and drop a load on your head

This monster in me makes me retch, you messed it, messed it up

I've got my telescope head in the haystack

I'm getting tired of your dodgeball circus act

Put pepper in my coffee, I forgot to bark

Put pepper in my coffee, I forgot to bark on command

(you're mean, mean, mean

you tease, tease, tease me)

{Continue with the bridge progression until end.}

Do you smell jealousy?

Do you smell jealousy, jealousy, jealousy?

Now I'm not feeding off you, I will rearrange your scales

If I can, and I can

March into the ocean, march into the sea

I had a hat I put it down and it sunk, reached down,

yanked it up, slapped it on my head

All the people gather

Fly to carry each his burden

We are young despite the years we are concern

We are hope despite the times

All of the sudden, these days

Happy throngs, take this joy wherever, wherever....

I wish to meet each one of you

And you, me, you, if I can and I can

We have many things in common, name three (three, three, three)

I had a hat and it sunk, reached down,

yanked it up, slapped it on my head

All the people gather

Fly to carry each his burden

We are young despite the years we are concern

We are hope despite the times

All of the sudden, these days

Happy throngs, take this joy wherever, wherever you go.

Now I'm not feeding off you I will rearrange your scales

If I can and I can

I wish to eat each one of you and you, me, you

I had a hat and it sunk, reached down,

yanked it up, slapped it on my head

All the people gather

Fly to carry each his burden

We are young despite the years we are concern

We are hope despite the times

All of the sudden, these days

Happy throngs, take this joy wherever, wherever you...

carry each his burden

We are young despite the years we are concern

We are hope despite the times

All of the sudden, these days

Happy throngs, take this joy wherever, wherever you go.

{play the riff but start with the stuff on the 7th fret of

the low E string}

I fell asleep and read just about every paragraph.

Read the scene where gravity is pulling me around

Peel back the mountains peel back the sky

Stomp gravity into the floor

It's a Man Ray kind of sky

Let me show you what I can do with it

Time and distance are out of place here

{The riff is like this:

Step up, step up, step up the sky is open-armed

{start the riff again}

When the light is mine, I felt gravity pull

Somewhere near the end it said

"You can't do this", I said "I can too"

Shift sway rivers shift, oceans fall and mountains drift

It's a Man Ray kind of sky

Let me show you what I can do with it

Step up, step up, step up the sky is open-armed

When the light is mine, I felt gravity pull onto my eyes,

holding my head straight (looking down).

This is the easiest task I've ever had to do...

Reason had harnessed the tame

Holding the sky in their arms

Gravity pulls me down

REM

Until The Day is Done

Tuning- DADGBD

Intro :

The battle's been lost, the war is not won

An addled republic, a bitter refund

The business first flat earthers licking their wounds

The verdict is dire, the country's in ruins

Providence blinked, facing the sun

Where are we left to carry on

Until the day is done

As we've written our stories to entertain

These notions of glory and bull market gain

The teleprompt flutters, the power surge brings

An easy speed message falls into routine

Providence blinked, facing the sun

Where are we left to carry on

Until the day is done

A voice whispers "Son,

The blessed vision comes."

What have I done

So hold tight your babies and your guns

Forgive us our trespasses, father and son

Providence blinked, facing the sun

Where are we left to carry on

Until the day is done

(Verse chords)

Sinking fast, the weight chained to my feet

No time to argue with belief

I'm not alone, a thousand others dropping

Faster than me

What put me here?

Nothing to hold on to

Nowhere to brake

(Chorus Chords)

Where is the ripcord, the trapdoor, the key?

Where is the cartoon escape-hatch for me?

No time to question the choices I make

(END OF CHORUS chords)

I've got to follow another direction (although fall down is much cooler)

(Verse chords)

The last thing I remember was climbing up the stairs

I threw the window open in challenge and despair

I don't know what I needed

I needed time

I needed to escape

I saw the future turn

Upside-down and hesitate.

The vista I see now is changing

Uncertainty is suffocating

Our hope has never felt so great and

Lit up down

A pounding pulse

To make it go

Make it slow down,

Go.

Accelerate to make it slow

Make it go

Accelerate to make it slow

Make it go

he adlibs a bit and instead of hitting the second "7" of the riff, he will

She didn't want to get pinned down by her prior town

Get me to the train on time, here take this nickel make a dime

Take this penny and make it into a necklace when I leave

What is at the other end, I don't know another friend

Another wife, another morning spent

Listen, listen to the auctioneer

Another engine, another engine

We never wrote the reasons that I need explained

Some things are givens, and others get away

This time its for myself you call it what you may

Okay, we won't say goodbye so long, so much more

Listen to the auctioneer

Another engine, another engine

Listen to the bargain holler

Listen to the barter holler

Listen to the auctioneer

Get me to the train on time here take this nickel make a dime

Take this penny and make it into a necklace when I leave

What is at the other end, an I don't know another friend

Another wife, another morning spent

Listen to the auctioneer

Another engine, another engine

Do I stand the bargain holler?

Listen to the barter holler

Lyrics:

I can't see myself at thirty, I don't buy a lacquered thirty

Caught like flies, preserved for tomorrow's jewelery, again

Lighted in the amber yard, a green shellback, green shellback

Preserved for tomorrow's eyes, in tree beer tar-black brer sap,
