from "Beachhouse on the Moon"
[Intro]
C G/B F2/A
C G/B F2/A
[Verse 1]
C G/B F2/A Sunset is an angel weeping
C G/B F2/A Holding out a bloody sword
C G/B F2/A No matter how I squint I cannot
C G/B F2/A Make out what it's pointing toward
[Chorus]
F G Sometimes you feel like you've lived too long
AmThe days drip slowly on the page
F And you catch yourself
G F G Pacing the cage
[Verse 2]
C G/B F2/A I've proved who I Am so many times
C G/B F2/A The magnetic strips worn thin
C G/B F2/A And each time I was someone else
C G/B F2/A And everyone was taken in
[Chorus]
F G Powers chatter in high places
AmStir up eddies in the dust of rage
F G
F G Set me to pacing the cage
[Verse 3]
C G/B F2/A I never knew what you all wanted
C G/B F2/A So I gave you everything
C G/B F2/A All that I could pillage
C G/B F2/A All the spells that I could sing
[Chorus]
F G It's as if the thing were written
AmIn the constitution of the age
F Sooner or later
G F G you'll wind up Pacing the cage
[Solo]
C G/B F2/A
C Em F2/A
C Em F2/A

[Verse 4]
C G/B F2/A Sometimes the best map will not guide you
C G/B F2/A You can't see what's round the bend
C G/B F2/A Sometimes the road leads through dark places
C G/B F2/A Sometimes the darkness is your friend
[Chorus]
F G Today these eyes scan bleached out land
AmFor the coming of the outbound stage
F G F Pacing the cage
F G F Pacing the cage
F G F Pacing the cage
