[Verso 1]
 
             Em 
Its always fine if it's your idea 
                   Am7 
But never if its mine 

It's kinda hard to press my soul 
            B7                               Em 
Into these eggshells and still just toe the line 
       Em 
Maybe you could just relax 
                                            Am7 
And have yourself another crimson glass of wine 

Then you could sleep it off 
           B7                            Em 
Until you wake to hear the rusty church bells chime 
 


[Verso 2]
 
           Em 
When it's time to rise and shine 
                                           Am7 
You slip out and get yourself back to the grind 

Dont forget to take a minute 
         B7                                Em 
To just stop and smell the needles on the pine 
           Em 
Well, you always meant to do it 
                                        Am7 
But you never did, you never found the time 

You waited far too long 
               B7                              Em 
And left your favorite pumpkin rotting on the vine

[Verso 3]
 
         Em 
Well, I guess its not a tragedy 
                         Am7 
And I guess it's not a crime 

I suppose that what youre looking for 
    B7                                 Em 
Is still just hidden deep inside your mind 
          Em 
Walking through a lucid daydream every day 
                               Am7 
Is like a harpoon through the chest 

I wish I could show the hand I'm holding 
B7                           Em 
But I wield it closer to my vest 
 


[Verso 4]
 
            Em 
Well, the clouds are drifting endless like an ocean 
                        Am7 
And the sun is setting low 

Up here I can see forever 
       B7                               Em 
And it makes me wonder bout the folks below 
          Em 
Are they all just playing parts in their own movie? 
                       Am7 
Do they even know I'm here? 

Do they hear me when Im thinking? 
            B7                            Em 
Would they stop to plan to whisper in my ear?

[Verso 5]
 
     Em 
My thoughts have been infested lately 
                          Am7 
With so many patterns of resent 

And I'm digging through the cushions 
        B7                         Em 
'Til I realize that every pennys spent 
       Em 
After everything Ive been through 
                                  Am7 
My infernal heart is yearning to repent 
                                    B7 
But I plummet further into all the feelings 
                    Em 
Of regret and discontent 
 


[Verso 6]
 
         Em 
Well, I guess there ain't no reason for the rhyme 
                              Am7 
And theres no rhythm to the beat 

You could make yourself a millionaire 
     B7                              Em 
And still end up out living on the street 
                Em 
You might as well just take it in 
                                         Am7 
And leave the anguish for another broken soul 

With a chilling hint of distance 
      B7                              Em 
Left between you and whoever's in control
