Sleeping at Last – Mind (Guitar)

Dm                      F               C G
First, the ground rules get established

    Dm               F          C G
Memory is historically inaccurate

     Dm          F          C
But repetition, repetition sings

      G                     Dm     F           C     G
Till finally the melody is sacred, rooted, unchanged

 Dm                F            C G
Patterns form and feel important

      Dm                 F             C G
The starting lines of a living blueprint

          Dm         F                C
All this information in formation is key

    G                    Dm             F           C    G
To draw a distinction between waking life and our dreams

     Dm
Our dreams

   Dm              F             C G
It overwhelms the nervous system

              Dm               F         C G
This fearful constant state of comparison

   Dm                F                C
In our grey matter, all grey matters

      G                       Dm
An embarrassment of riches in our heads

   F              C                G
We gravitate to black or white instead

   Dm                F
We were designed to send mixed signals

C                     G
One image made up of different pixels

Dm                F           C G
All subject to interpretation

     Dm              F               C
Till binary systems, binary systems run

         G                     Dm       F        C    G
And the vibrancy of everything becomes zeros and ones

Dm                Am            C G
Patterns form and feel important

          Dm                      Am          C G
It'€™s the first brush stroke of a self-portrait
