[Chorus 1]
C# F# F#maj7 F#6 C#
See the soul singer in the session band
F# A#m G#
Shredded to ribbons beneath a microphone stand
C# F# C#
Felt the quickness of pity like a flash in a pan
F# G# F# F#maj7 F#6 C# G#
For the soul singer in the session band
[Verse 1]
C# F# C#
Now a red carpetbagger makes a Blackberry call
F# A#m G#
To the plastic piranhas in the city of salt
C# F# C#
Wasted wheat paste campaign, post no bills on the wall
F# G# F# F#maj7 F#6 C#
You mean nothing to no one but that's nobody's fault
[Chorus 1]
C# F# F#maj7 F#6 C#

For the soul singer in the session band
[Verse 2]
C# F# C#
I had a lengthy discussion about the power of myth
F# A#m G#
With a post-modern author who didn't exist
C# F# C#
In this fictitious world all reality twists
F# G# F# F#maj7 F#6 C#
I was a hopeless romantic, now I'm just turning tricks
[Chorus 2]
C# F# F#maj7 F#6 C#
Just like that soul singer in the session band
F# A#m G#
Shredded confetti beneath a microphone stand
C# F# C#
Saw the conflict of interest slipping cash in the hand
F# G# F# F#maj7 F#6 C# G#
Of the soul singer in the session band
[Verse 3]
C# F# C#
His room is on fire since he painted it red
F# A#m G#
There are a stranger's silk sequins at the foot of the bed
C# F# C#
He's been to weddings and funerals but he still never wept
F# G# F# F#maj7 F#6 C# G#
Now sorrow is pleasure when you want it instead
[Chorus 3]
C# F# F#maj7 F#6 C#
Just like the soul singer in the session band
F# A#m G#
Wailed like an infant atop a white baby grand
C# F# C#
We'll need every sandbag and every man
F# G# F# F#maj7 F#6 C#
To save the soul singer in the session band
[Instrumental]
C# G# C# F# C# F# G# F# F#maj7 F#6 C#
[Verse 4]
C# F# C#
Headlights or taillights, it's a flip of a coin
F# A#m G#
I've been coming and going since the day I was born
C# F# C#
And I followed the breadcrumbs but I never got home
F# G# F# F#maj7 F#6 C#
I grew old in an instant, now I'm all on my own
[Chorus 4]
C# F# F#maj7 F#6 C#
See that soul singer in the session band
F# A#m G#
Shredded to nothing beneath the microphone stand
C# F# C#
Saw the wave of the future through the crack in the dam
F# G# F# F#maj7 F#6 C#
Drowned the soul singer in the session band
F# G# F# F#maj7 F#6 C#
Bless the soul singer in the session band
