[Verse] Dm The generals hate holidays Bb Others shoot up to chase the sun blues away Am7 Dm Another store front church is open Dm Bb Sea of neon lights, a boxer his shadow fights Am7 Dm Soldier tired and sailor broken C F Winter's asleep at my window C F Cold wind waits at my door C F She asks me up to her place Bb Gm But I won't be down anymore [Verse] Judges with metermaid hearts Order supermarket justice starts Frozen children, inner city Walkers in the paper rain Waiting for those knights that never came The hi-jacked trying so hard to be pretty Night rains tap at my window Winds of my thoughts passing by She laughed when I tried to tell her Hello only ends in goodbye America gains another pound Only time will bring some people around Idols and flags are slowly melting Another shower of rice To pair it for some will suffice The mouthful asks for second helpings Moonshine pours through my window The night puts it's laughter away Clouds that pierce the illusion That tomorrow would be as yesterday...
