Conor Oberst and the Mystic Valley Band – Danny Callahan (Ukulele)

G
Green world, love the chloroform

Am
Front porch in the thunderstorm

C		Am		G
Controlled chaos, confused energy

G
So stop reading the weather charts

Am
Stop counting the playing cards

C		Am		G
There's no system, there's no guarantee

C			    C			G
That the love you feel and carry inside can be passed

C			          C		G
But you try, and all you do is just talk to the past

	  Am		C
Ask how are you getting on alone

G
Some wander the wilderness

Am
Some drink cosmopolitans

C		Am		G
Some cold science, some glean astroplanes

G
I can't tell where the canvas stops

Am
Homesick as an astronaut

C		Am		G
Just keep drifting, but still can't explain

C			C			G
How the love we feel we carry inside can be passed

C			C			G
See a brother in the gutter and reach out your hand

	   Am		C
Ask how are you getting on alone

G
What gauge measures miracles

Am
Whose heartbeat's electrical

C		Am		G
We feign sickness with our modern joy

G
But even Western medicine

Am
It couldn't save Danny Callahan

C		Am		G
Bad bone marrow, the poor little boy

C			C			G
But the love he feels he carries inside can be passed

C			C			G
He lay still, his mother kissed him goodbye, said comeback

    	Am		C
Where are you going to alone

    	Am		C
Where are you going all alone
