G Through the fish eyed lens of tear stained D6 eyes D
I can C barely define the shape of this moment
in G time

And G far from flying high in clear blue D6 skies D
I’m C spiralling down to the hole in the ground
where I G hide G/B

C If you negotiate the G minefield in the drive
C And beat the dogs and cheat the cold G electronic eyes
G/B C And if you D make it past the Em shotguns in the hall
Em/B Am Dial the combination, open the priesthole
And if I’m in I’ll tell you D

G Bm There’s a kid who had a big halluci-G nation
Bm Making love to girls in maga-D zines
He C wonders if you’re sleeping
With your Em new found faith
Em/B Am7 Could anybody love him?
Or is it just a C/D crazy G dream?

Inter G D C G

And G if I G4 G show you my D dark side D6 D
Will you still C hold me C/D C to-G night?
And G if I G4 G open my D heart to you D6 D
And show you my C weak side
What would you G do? G/B

C Would you sell your story to Rolling G Stone?
C Would you take the children away?
G And leave me alone
G/B And C smile in reas-D surance
As you Em whisper down the phone
Em/B Am Would you send me packing?
C/D Or would you take me G home?

Solo D G Bm7 D C Em Am C/D G

Bm Thought I oughta bare my naked G feelings
Bm Thought I oughta tear the curtain D down
I C held the blade in trembling hands
Pre-Em pared to make it, but
Am Just then the phone rang Am7 Am7+ Am
I never had the nerve to make the final G cut
