[Intro] Em C/G D C/G Em C/G D C/G [Verse 1]
Em         Em               C/G     G    D
I was only holding out for another chance

Em                    C/G
Running faster than my feet could take me,

D                  Em
Clear to the city’s edge.

Em                             Em
I told everybody that my mind was changing,

       C/G                   D
How I never saw the story’s end.

Am                       D              G      Em
Down by the water we were smokin’ by the old motel.
[Chorus]
            C/G    G      Em
Is there another cure?

            C/G    G      Em
A magic golden bird?

            C/G             G
Giving what your soul has earned,

            C/G              D
Oh, how I’d love to float upon it.
[Instrumental] Em C/G D C/G [Verse 2]
Em                        Em
I found somebody who could give me comfort

       C/G       G    D
When I felt estranged.

Em                         C/G
I plant by poison in the flower garden,

       D                   Em
Hoping that my roots won’t take.

Em                      Em
But every time that the seasons changin’

           C/G                    D
When the clouds put on a coat of grey.

Am
I can feel it creeping over,

D          G         Em
Holin’ up inside my brain.
[Chorus]
            C/G    G      Em
Is there another cure?

            C/G    G      Em
A magic golden bird?

            C/G             G
Giving what your soul has earned,

            C/G              D
Oh, how I’d love to float upon it.

                   C/G              G      Em
Is there a secret blowin’ that you heard?

                      C/G   G      Em
That gets you to the other world?

Em
High above the summit,

             C/G   G     C/G            D
But your eyes ain’t sure how to adjust upon it.
