[Intro]
F#
[Verses]
B
Sold my cold knot
G#m     F#
A heavy stone
B                 G#m           F#
Sold my red horse for a venture home
To vanish on the bow -
         E
Settling slow
                          G#m
Fit it all, fit it in the doldrums
(Or so the story goes)
E
Color the era
             G#m
Film it's historical
B
My mile could not
G#m      F#
Pump the plumb
B            G#m           F#
In my arbor 'till my ardor trumped
every inner inertia
     E
Lump sum
All at once
                  G#m
Rushing from the sub-pump
(Or so the story goes)
E
Balance we won't know
                         G#m
We will see when it gets warm
