Am G C G
Verse 1
Am G Fmaj7 Every time a guy writes a song, he's a cowboy, a sailor
Em AmPlaying with the world in his palm like the first pioneer
G Fmaj7Every time he opens his mouth, it's a loud movie trailer
Em AmClipping every image and sound he thinks proves he was here
Chorus
Am G Fmaj7 a hand, a spike, a physical fight, a flash of light, a curtain
Em Ama toll, a tithe, the passage of time, a height, a dive, a burden
G Fmaj7a girl, a night, a typical type, a siren in the water
Em Ama scroll, a nod, a message from God, a son, a Holy Father
Verse 2
G Fmaj7Every time a guy writes a song, he's a sailor, a cowboy
Em AmHolding out the world in his palm like he made it himself
G Fmaj7Every time I open my mouth, I think, "Wow, what a loud noise"
Em AmStill on the soapbox, just hoping I seem underwhelmed
Chorus
Am G Fmaj7 The hand, the pen, the writing again, the wind around the willow
Em AmThe felt, the ice, the passage of time, the melting down the window
G Fmaj7The now, the then, the thinking of "when," the bottle in the ocean
Em AmThe strike, the pause, the message from God forbid she shows emotion
Interlude
Am G
Bridge
AmThis isn't rage, it's worth a mention
GThis is a fake internal tension
Fmaj7Sometimes, I spread out one opinion
EmAnd stand on its back to gauge attention
AmThis isn't rage, it's too specific
GI like to hate symbolic limits
Fmaj7This is no statement, I'm complicit
GThis is a dream, God put me in it
Chorus
Am G Fmaj7 a hand, a spike, a physical fight, the wind around the willow
Em Ama toll, a tithe, the passage of time, the melting down the window
G Fmaj7The now, the then, the thinking of "when," the siren in the water
Em AmThe strike, the pause, the message from God, does that make me His daughter?
G Fmaj7a hand, a shove, a valley, a jump, a score under the wire
Outro
G AmJust sweep me up, just sweep me up and take me somewhere higher
G Fmaj7Just sweep me up, just sweep me up and take me somewhere higher
G AmJust sweep me up, just sweep me up and take me somewhere higher
