[D]Shr[F#m]ill as a choir of children
Urgent like the first day of May
False and inflatable feeling
[D]Tug[F#m]s at [D]my senses, 
big as the Macy's Parade

[D]One[F#m]brick on top of another
Such as the measure of man
Planets are inset like diamonds
[D]On [F#m]a gra[D]vity halo, 
eternity's wedding band

[D]I s[F#m]lept with that dealer all summer
The ecstasy is still in my spine
Coat check I couldn't remember
[D]Wal[F#m]ked i[D]nto the winter, 
came out on the other side

[A]In[Bm] th[G]e South the sun is shining
Back in the East the lights went out

[D]Stu[F#m]ck on the ladder to heaven
On trial way back in The Hague
Lullaby sounds from the engine
[D]In [F#m]my St[D]yrofoam coffin, 
asleep on the interstate

[D]Bla[F#m]ck globes, old symbols of freedom
A murderer still on the lam
Cities encircled in iron
[D]On [F#m]a gre[D]at silver beltway, 
democracy's shackled hands

[D]Sea[F#m]nce that brought us together
Objects we move with our mind
Coat check and I lost the number
[D]Sho[F#m]rt sl[D]eeves in the winter, 
fell back through the other side

[A]Ou[Bm]t i[G]n the West the cars are crashing
Up in the North the ice gave out.
