[Intro]
G D C Bm A# F D
[Verse 1]
D You never learn to tell the difference between C Bm The probable projections and the best parts of the dream A# F The fragments that stick with you, the ones you really feel D Those parts aren't real D G But high in the cold Midwestern air D They shimmer before us there G Almost out of reach but not quite Bm Stay up thinking about it all night A Waited so long for days like these G I'm tired of living on my knees
[Chorus]
D G Pull your hair back tight, head right for the extraction point F#m Bm E G A D And if you don't hear from me let them all go free
[instrumental interlude]
G D C Bm A# F D
[Verse 2]
D I'm on the Kennedy Expressway at dawn C Don't know where we got this car from Bm I'm driving with the fog lights on A# F The angles you don't plan for, the things you might have missed D Those things exist D G But under the waxing winter sun D I feel like we're almost gone G Just pick a lane and drive right through Bm Headed off to freedom with you A Dreams of the future up in the front of my mind G Leave a couple dozen bodies behind
[Chorus]
D G Pull your hair back tight, head right for the extraction point F#m Bm E G A D And if you don't hear from me let them all go free
[Outro]
