D Asus4
Piles and piles of old magazines
Em7 G
Windows locked up and hidden from the street.
D Asus4
In a crawlspace, forgotten money.
Em7 G
People tensing and waiting to come back home.
D Asus4 Em7
You can feel the tension in the house
G D Asus4
the moment you walk through the door.
Em7 G
Sudden madness allow me in again.
D Asus4 Em7 G6
When the first train flies past the house, miles away
D Asus4
the screaming starts and it feels like a minefield,
Em7 G
the neighbors silently hiding in the shadows.
D Asus4
There's a person locked in, behind that door -
Em7 G
Don't let anybody catch you turning the handle.
D Asus4 Em7 G
It's a long, long night. It's going to be an awful and lonely night.
D D/Db
Well...you can blot out the years and abandon the jungle
E7 G
Cover up the tapes and refuse to look back,
D Asus4 Em7 G
but your own right hand is not gonna save your soul.
D D/Db
You have been followed! Ah, the mechanics.
E7 G
All the reactions that seem to attach themselves.
D Asus4 Em7 G
It's been a very very very long year and it's gonna be an even longer night.
D Asus4
And then a screen door slams; the windows break.
Em7 G
A woman just jumps and scr*pes at the hood of a car.
D Asus4 Em7 G
When the car backs up into a streetlight, all of the neighbors call the cops.
D Asus4
She falls off and the car speeds away
Em7 G
Headed for the border of a far away state.
D Asus4 Em7
It's gonna mean an hour of freedom with the radio and quarter-filled gas tank.
G
And a quarter filled gas tank
D
With the high beams on
Asus4 A
And the windows down...
D Asus4 Em7 G x2
