[Intro]
D
[Verse]
D G There was a grown man dying from fright, Bm E so surprised at the things he'd say. D G With a giant fantasy life, Bm E running 'round on feet of clay.
[Chorus]
D G D G Naked except for a perpetual debt Bm A D G that couldn't be stripped away, D G D G An unrightable wrong that moved him along, D A D A closer to division day.
[Verse]
D G Spent a long time living with that, Bm E Never could give it a name, D G and when you don't know what you're looking at, Bm E it makes it much harder to take.
[Chorus]
D G D G D Mostly they'd meet when he was asleep and Bm A D G have some sick exchange, D G D G that struck him as wrong and moved him along, D A D A closer to division day.
[Solo]
D G Bm E D G Bm E
[Chorus]
D G D G I can't make an exception for a bad connection Bm A D G that only goes one way, D G D G sell out for a song, where I don't belong, D A D A with you on division day.
[Verse]
D G The moon stood up on the ridge, Bm E looking down where the water shines. D G And a man looking over the bridge, Bm E like he done so many times.
[Chorus]
D G D G Thinking about how to stay out, Bm A D G Out of trouble's way (and) D G D G Flying to fall away from you all, D A Bm G It's over division day D A D A Beautiful division day.
