[Verse 1]
C Em Pull down the shades, let's kill the morning F G Lets kill the morning, let it die Am Dm Well, your eyes flash out a warning G C But they'll be another morning after afternoon and tonight
[Verse 2]
Em Am Fuck long hours sick with singing Em G Sick with singing the same songs Am Dm In the bars, they'll soon be drinking G Lets cash my check and drink along
[Verse 3]
C Em Old times, hello, hey, I've missed you F G Old life, hey now, let me in Am Dm Because you win on every issue G Now, can I kiss you?
Don't you care how long it's been?
[Verse 4]
Em Am It has been so many years, I lived my yearning Em G But in every bed, it led me through Am Dm They only blew on what was burning G And it grew, the fire grew
[Verse 5]
Am G And now with nothing to consume Am G It's turned on me in my glass room Am Dm Where I'll burn, you think I'm finished G Think I'm not winning
Well, go on, assume
[Verse 6]
C G Am F So, take me, I'm yours, morning starship C G Am F Sparkling stars line your lights as they lift off Am F Am F G The loneliest street corner this clown has yet leaned against
[Verse 7]
C G Am F I'll let all these fine faces fold into me C G Am F The warmth from the space lights illumines the sea Am F Am F G As the laughingest mouths wetly open, but we set them sighing G We'll take them flying
[Verse 8]
C Em And we'll take this man, left almost passed out F G Cause we're pretty sure he needs a hand Am He says he can't stand Dm And when we pick him up G He asks us where this ship will land
[Verse 9]
Em Am But he knows we know it isn't coming down Em G He knows we know we'll fly so far Am Dm Till finally stars hold him in all around G Till he forgets the ground
Till he forgets the crawling way
Am
