Am Am/G Fmaj7/F
[Verse 1]
Am Am/G Fmaj7/F My life comes and goes Am Am/G Fmaj7/F My life comes and goes D Fmaj7 Short flight, free rows: D Fmaj7 I lie down and doze
[Verse 2]
Am Am/G Fmaj7/F My life came and went Am Am/G Fmaj7/F My life came and went D Fmaj7 Short flight; free descent D Fmaj7 Poor flight attendant
[Verse 3]
Am Am/G Fmaj7/F But the sky, over the ocean! Am Am/G Fmaj7/F And the ocean, skirting the city! Am Am/G Fmaj7/F And the city, bright as a garden Am Am/G Fmaj7/F Am Am/G Fmaj7/F (when the garden woke to meet me)
[Verse 4]
Am Am/G Fmaj7/F From that height was a honeycomb Am Am/G Fmaj7/F Made of light from those funny homes, D Fmaj7 D Fmaj7 Intersected each enclosed, anelectric and alone
[Verse 5]
C Fmaj7 In our lives is a common sense C Fmaj7 That relies on the common fence D Fmaj7 That divides, and attends D Fmaj7 But provides scant defense
[Verse 6]
Am Am/G Fmaj7/F From the Great Light that shine through a pin-hole Am Am/G Fmaj7/F When the pin-light calls itself Selfhood Am Am/G Fmaj7/F And the Selfhood inverts on a mirror Am Am/G Fmaj7/F In an Amora Obscura Am Am/G Fmaj7/F
[Verse 7]
Am Am/G Fmaj7/F But it's mine. Or, at least, it's lent Am Am/G Fmaj7/F And my life, until the time is spent D Fmaj7 Is a pin-light, bent D Fmaj7 It's a pin-light, bent
(On the last note of the song, I like to let the f note on the first fret of the e string ring out.)
