D F#m Shrill as a choir of children Urgent like the first day of May False and inflatable feeling D F#m D Tugs at my senses, big as the Macy's Parade D F#m One brick on top of another Such as the measure of man Planets are inset like diamonds D F#m D On a gravity halo, eternity's wedding band D F#m I slept with that dealer all summer The ecstasy is still in my spine Coat check I couldn't remember D F#m D Walked into the winter, came out on the other side A Bm G In the South the sun is shining Back in the East the lights went out D F#m Stuck on the ladder to heaven On trial way back in The Hague Lullaby sounds from the engine D F#m D In my Styrofoam coffin, asleep on the interstate D F#m Black globes, old symbols of freedom A murderer still on the lam Cities encircled in iron D F#m D On a great silver beltway, democracy's shackled hands D F#m Seance that brought us together Objects we move with our mind Coat check and I lost the number D F#m D Short sleeves in the winter, fell back through the other side A Bm G Out in the West the cars are crashing Up in the North the ice gave out.
