Gadd9/F#

[Intro]

D A7 Em

I have walked so much farther I thought

D A7 Em

I should drink out of this afternoon talk

D A7 Em G

So I’d fall asleep before I go dark

D A7 Em

Drinking champagne from a gold paper cup

D A7 Em

There’s this refrain that never gives up

D A7 Em G

It’s in your blazing blue eyes, it’s enough

Em A7 D G Gadd9/F# Em

That pin point rage I felt growing up

A7 D

I can’t shake it away

D A7 Em

I lie awake with my face to the door

D A7 Em

I never ask you why or what for

D A7 Em G

I’m so afraid that I’ll never get cured

Bm Em A7 D

Luck is like a marble on the stage

Bm Em A7 D G Em A7 D

It waits for a big grace to fall

D A7 Em

I breathe my name against the cool glass

D A7 Em

I dissolve the day despise my past

D A7 Em G

Ecstatic; nothing has silenced that gas

D A7 Em

I took an oath before I turned ten

D A7 Em

Hand over heart I became a man

D A7 Em G

Swore not to be the coward I am

Em A7 D G Gadd9/F# Em

That pin point rage I felt growing up

A7 D

Returned with a vengeance today

Bm Em A7 D

Luck is like a marble on the stage

Bm Em A7 D G Em A7 D

It waits for a stair to fail

D A7 Em

Where did you acquire your magic affects?

D A7 Em

It’ll take a long time to improve and effect

D A7 Em

To dissolve and destroy when I least expect
