B                    Bmaj7                          B7
I see you gracefully swimming with the country club women

E                                  C#m    B
in the Greenwood southside society pool.

A                                  E
I love your amethyst eyes and your protestant thighs

         B                 F#
you're a shimmering socialite jewel.

B               Bmaj7          B7
From the Carbon Dioxide Riding Academy

E                  B                           C#m    B
to the children's crusade marching through the downtown.

A                                          E
Well I think I'd die see, if you just said hi to me.

               B                            F#
When something breaks it makes a beautiful sound.

E
Sometimes I feel like I'm watching the world
and the world isn't watching me back. But when I see you, I know I'm in it too.
               B
The waves come in and the waves go back.

E
The kids in the corner all covered in dirt.
Caught trespassing under the moon. My father came in from wherever he'd been
              B
and kicked my shit all over the room.

             A
All over the room

             E
All over the room.
[Instrumental] B Ebm* A Am E
    E                           Ebm*
The room is dark and heavy with what I want to say.

      A                                      E
I see murals in the radio static and on your blue blue jeans.

B*                                       Ebm*
What would you say if I asked you to run away?

          A                           E
It's been done so many times I hardly know what it means.

  E                                Ebm*
I took these blue arrangements and threw them in the sea

     A                            E
when older waves from older caves brought them back to me.

  B*                               Ebm*
I took these blue arrangements and stored them on a shelf.

     A
With change on the mantle and time in a candle,

             E
in the end a boy raises himself.
