One step forward two steps back

They say opposites attract

But they haven't tracked
Cmaj7 Cmaj7/A
In my heart shack

Living in a golden age

Why do these words sound so strange?

Nothings changed
Cmaj7 Cmaj7/A
Inside this cage
F Am
From this window I can see
F Am
You coming back to me
Cmaj7 Cmaj7/A
How can this be?
Cmaj7 Cmaj7/A
My windows a dream
[Bridge]
Gm
Pet snakes in the hall
Gm
Pet snakes wall to wall
Gm
Coiling where the mice crawl
C7
Winter, spring, summer and fall
Am F
Oh why (x4)
Gm C7
Why does it rain inside?
