Verse 

Em               D   C                       Am 
I set it all on fire, it burned away in the night 
Em                     D    Am                         C   
Watching with eyes so tired, the orange and the blue arise 
Am                   D          C                     D 
Then I sped off on a motorcycle, like everything you dreamed 
Am            D       C                     D 
I’ll create a universe that you can barely see

Em                Bm                   C 
Inside or outside corner in the night 
                  D                       Em 
The coroner hides underneath the stairway 
                      Bm                     C 
Where the birds spin sticks in the corridors 
                D     Em 
Don’t tell the others 
                      Bm                 C 
The cider house side corner in the night 
                       D                      Em 
It’s poison, they are boarding up the windows 
                  Bm                       
One down and they know it’s going to slip 
    C             D      Em 
So don’t tell the others 


Bridge 

Bm        C     D       Em  Bm    
Above my head, they’ll fly 
            C             D          Em Bm   
With their lives that are more than mine, 
               C   D    Em Bm   
Reach out my hands to light, 
           C           D    
And feel life that is more 


Verse 

Em               D        C                       Am 
I built a wooden backdrop, I made it look awfully real 
Em                   D     Am                    C 
I set it up in the woodshop and lit it electric teal 
Am                      D           C                     D 
Then coughed up just a little blood; it splashed into my hand 
Am                    D       C                            D 
Please run and get father now, 'cause I’m thinking this is bad...
