Am                    F         C
Washed my face in the rivers of empire

        F            C         G
Made my bed from the cardboard crate

     Em             Am
Down in the city of courts

Am          F     C
No news, no new regrets

         F       C       G
Tossed a susan b over my shoulder

    F               Em       Dm
And prayed it would rain and rain

   F         Em            Dm
Submerge the whole western state

         C         F
Called a last fair deal 

        C        F
With an american zeal

    Em            Am
and corporate handshake

Am                F         C
take the story of carpenter mike

                F             C        G
Who dropped his tools and his keys and left

    F             Em        Dm
And headed out as far as he could

         F        Em              Dm
Past the city and gated neighbourhoods

       C                F
And he slept 'neath the stars

      C            F
Wrote down what he dreamt

       C         F         Em        Am
And he built a machine for no-one to see

         G            F            C
and took flight first light of new morning
