Capo 1st fret
Standard (EADGBE)
as i'm talking my words slip to the floor
and they crawl through your legs, slide under the back door
rendering me
freakish and dazed
well here i am, don't know how to say this
only thing i know is awkward silence
your eyelides close when you're around me
to shut me out
so i'll go walking in the streets until my heels bleed
and i'll sing out my song in case the birds wish to sing along
and i'll dig a tunnel
to the center of the universe
well here i am, don't know how to say this
only thing i know is awkward silence
your eyelides close when you're around me
to shut me out
i'll make my way across the frozen sea
beyond the blank horizon
where i can forget you and me
and get a decent night's sleep
well here i am, don't know how to say this
only thing i know is awkward silence
your eyelides close when you're around me
to shut me out
