Verse 1
Fm G Cmaj7 Every time a guy writes a song, he's a cowboy, a sailor
Fm FmPlaying with the world in his palm like the first pioneer
G Cmaj7Every time he opens his mouth, it's a loud movie trailer
Fm FmClipping every image and sound he thinks proves he was here
Chorus
Fm G Cmaj7 a hand, a spike, a physical fight, a flash of light, a curtain
Fm Fma toll, a tithe, the passage of time, a height, a dive, a burden
G Cmaj7a girl, a night, a typical type, a siren in the water
Fm Fma scroll, a nod, a message from God, a son, a Holy Father
Verse 2
G Cmaj7Every time a guy writes a song, he's a sailor, a cowboy
Fm FmHolding out the world in his palm like he made it himself
G Cmaj7Every time I open my mouth, I think, "Wow, what a loud noise"
Fm FmStill on the soapbox, just hoping I seem underwhelmed
Chorus
Fm G Cmaj7 The hand, the pen, the writing again, the wind around the willow
Fm FmThe felt, the ice, the passage of time, the melting down the window
G Cmaj7The now, the then, the thinking of "when," the bottle in the ocean
Fm FmThe strike, the pause, the message from God forbid she shows emotion
Interlude
Fm G
Bridge
FmThis isn't rage, it's worth a mention
GThis is a fake internal tension
Cmaj7Sometimes, I spread out one opinion
FmAnd stand on its back to gain attention
FmThis isn't rage, it's too specific
GI like to hate symbolic limits
Cmaj7This is no statement, I'm complicit
GThis is a dream, God put me in it
Chorus
Fm G Cmaj7 a hand, a spike, a physical fight, the wind around the willow
Fm Fma toll, a tithe, the passage of time, the melting down the window
G Cmaj7The now, the then, the thinking of "when," the siren in the water
Fm FmThe strike, the pause, the message from God, does that make me His daughter?
G Cmaj7a hand, a shove, a valley, a jump, a score under the wire
Outro
G FmJust sweep me up, just sweep me up and take me somewhere higher
G Cmaj7Just sweep me up, just sweep me up and take me somewhere higher
G FmJust sweep me up, just sweep me up and take me somewhere higher
