Ebm               B                 
  I was a brakeman, the sharpest of all them

Bb                          Ebm
  Hoping to be there and it good

Ebm               B       
  I was a bum rush, and pardon the self lust

Bb                      Ebm
  It wasn't always understood

Ebm              B                      Bb                         Ebm 
  I was a combing I comb every shoreline, I wanted to damage just a few

F#                           C#
  Hoping our timing won't be swift enough

                        B                            Ebm
  And they'll carry us away. And they'll carry us away

Ebm               B                
  I was a cold one, colder than ever,

Bb                                 Ebm
  Did you feel the chill I left on you

Ebm                          B                       
  Now back on the brake lines and steeper than I climb

Bb                               Ebm    
  Well if there's one well it be you

C#           B               F#                  Ebm
  Take your rind, take your fall and laying your trap for me

C#          B              F#                 Ebm
  Take this wig up off my head it did what it had to do

C#         B                 F#                  Ebm
  It runs back, straight and true and leaving no more
