[INTRO]
G C Em D
[VERSE 1]
G Open up a window C Em All the air, all the air is falling out D Eyes vacuum up light
Sound gets trapped by the mouth
G What to do with the remainder C When the dents Em The dents get hammered out D Then we'll travel through time
[VERSE 2]
G C The world's an inventor with its work Em Crawling, running, squirming 'round D Trees drop colorful fruits
Directly into our mouths
G The world's an inventor C Em We're the dirtiest thing its thought about D And we really don't mind
G C Em D
[VERSE 3]
G We'll probably never get there C Em Bring your sight seers, school teachers down
There's a water color weekend
D All the trees are turning colors now G We'll probably never get there C Em Bring your candy taster, time wasters around D And we'll fuck with their minds
[VERSE 4]
G The world composes with his C Shirt tails wrinkled hanging out Em D Bang us together see what sort
Of sounds we make right now
G The world plays music C Em Playing skin on teeth inside of the mouth D What sort of sounds?
What lovely sounds come about
G Em G Bm
[CHORUS
G C We stole the road Em Bm We floated in the light G C We're gonna break these bones Em Bm We're gonna travel time G C We stole the road Em Bm We floated in the light G C We're gonna break these bones Em Bm We're gonna travel time
[VERSE 5]
G We're gonna throw a party C Em All the ghosts of trees are coming out
Don't the open the directions
D Wait until the light's inside of the cloud G You're gonna wanna see this C Don't bring your camera around Em D Watch sun and sawdust align
[CHORUS]
G C We stole the road Em Bm We floated in the light G C We're gonna break these bones Em Bm We're gonna travel time G C We stole the road Em Bm We floated in the light G C We're gonna break these bones Em Bm We're gonna travel time
[VERSE 6]
G Close up the window C Em All the air all the air is falling out D Eyes vacuum up light
Sound gets trapped by the mouth
G C Our predecessor left this box Em And something's clawing around D I think it really wants out
[OUTRO]
