I think I'll go home and mull this over

         D       A       G
before I cram it down my throat

        Bm        A              G      Em
at long last it's crashed, its colossal mass

           D       A          G
has broken up into bits in my moat
[Chorus]
Em*      D*       Em*     D*
lift the mattress off the floor

Em*      D*
walk the cramps off

   A*             G*
go meander in the cold

Em*          D*
hail to your dark skin

Em*        D*
hiding the fact you're dead again

Em*  D*               A*           G*
underneath the power lines seeking shade

G*
far above our heads are the icy heights that contain all reason
[Verse]
       Bm       A      G         Em
it's a luscious mix of words and tricks

            D            A              G
that let us bet when you know we should fold

   Bm      A         G          Em
on rocks I dreamt of where we'd stepped

           D             A               G
and of the whole mess of roads we're now on
[Chorus]
Em*       D*        Em*     D*
hold your glass up, hold it in

Em*     D*                  A*              G*
never betray the way you've always known it is

Em*     D*                Em*
one day I'll be wondering how

         D*                 Em*
I got so old just wondering how

        D*               A*             G*
I never got cold wearing nothing in the snow

G*
this is way beyond my remote concern
of being condescending [Bridge]
Bm  A     G    F#m  Em    F#m   G
all these squawking birds won't quit

Bm  A    G F#m    Em F#m G
building nothing, laying bricks
[W/ Organ Solo] Bm A G Em D A G x2 [Chorus]
Em*       D*        Em*     D*
hold your glass up, hold it in

Em*     D*                  A*              G*
never betray the way you've always known it is

Em*     D*                Em*
one day I'll be wondering how

         D*                 Em*
I got so old just wondering how

        D*               A*             G*
I never got cold wearing nothing in the snow

G*
this is way beyond my remote concern
of being condescending [Bridge]
Bm  A     G    F#m  Em    F#m   G
all these squawking birds won't quit
