[Verse]
Em Seen rose gold haze at the end of the day Em Ragged-winged hawk swooping down on prey Em Curtain going up on the night time shadow play Em Seen sun going down set the sea on fire Em Black smoke boiling from burning tires Em And bones in the mud, was the blood sacrifice required?
[Chorus]
G Em Ooh-wee, all the sights I've seen G Em In the depth of the world and the heart of a dream G Em Ooh-wee, all the places I've been G Em Bm Each one reflected in the states I'm in, uh huh Em States I'm in
[Verse]
Em One day fit and one day fat Em One day flush and one day flat Em Reality distorted like I sat on hat Em One day I feel like I'm in control Em Next I'm suspended in a bottomless hole Em A drunk trying to shinny up a greased pole
[Chorus]
G Em Ooh-wee, all the sights I've seen G Em In the depth of the world and the heart of a dream G Em Ooh-wee, all the places I've been G Em Bm Each one reflected in the states I'm in, uh huh Em States I'm in
[Verse]
Em I'm slick as a dealer in a green eye shade Em Aces up his sleeve and he's not afraid Em The mayor and his uniformed monkeys have been well paid Em Climbing up the ivy to the balcony above Em Where pines the heart of my one true love Em Obsession, delusion, all that waits is the fateful shove
[Chorus]
G Em Ooh-wee, all the sights I've seen G Em In the depth of the world and the heart of a dream G Em Ooh-wee, all the places I've been G Em Bm Each one reflected in the states I'm in, uh huh Em States I'm in

Em
[Verse]
Em Crows in the treetops motors in the road Em Structures of darkness that the dawn corrodes Em Into the title montage of a new episode Em Whisper wells up from the deeps untrod Em Overflows the channel and spreads abroad Em Gathers in power like a lightning rod
[Chorus]
G Em Ooh-wee, all the sights I've seen G Em In the depth of the world and the heart of a dream G Em Ooh-wee, all the places I've been G Em Bm Each one reflected in the states I'm in, uh huh Em States I'm in G Em Ooh-wee, all the sights I've seen G Em In the depth of the world and the heart of a dream G Em Ooh-wee, all the places I've been G Em Bm Each one reflected in the states I'm in, uh huh Em States I'm in
