Verse 1
             Em
It′s always fine if it's your idea
                   Am7
But never if it′s mine

It's kinda hard to press my soul
            B7                               Em
Into these eggshells and still just toe the line
       Em
Maybe you could just relax
                                            Am7
And have yourself another crimson glass of wine

Then you could sleep it off
           B7                            Em
Until you wake to hear the rusty church bells chime

Verse 2
           Em
When it's time to rise and shine
                                           Am7
You slip out and get yourself back to the grind

Don′t forget to take a minute
         B7                                Em
To just stop and smell the needles on the pine
           Em
Well, you always meant to do it
                                        Am7
But you never did, you never found the time

You waited far too long
               B7                              Em
And left your favorite pumpkin rotting on the vine

verse 3
         Em
Well, I guess it′s not a tragedy
                         Am7
And I guess it's not a crime

I suppose that what you′re looking for
    B7                                 Em
Is still just hidden deep inside your mind
          Em
Walking through a lucid daydream every day
                               Am7
Is like a harpoon through the chest

I wish I could show the hand I'm holding
B7                           Em
But I wield it closer to my vest

Verse 4
            Em
Well, the clouds are drifting endless like an ocean
                        Am7
And the sun is setting low

Up here I can see forever
       B7                               Em
And it makes me wonder ′bout the folks below
          Em
Are they all just playing parts in their own movie?
                       Am7
Do they even know I'm here?

Do they hear me when I′m thinking?
            B7                            Em
Would they stop to plan to whisper in my ear?

Verse 5
     Em
My thoughts have been infested lately
                          Am7
With so many patterns of resent

And I'm digging through the cushions
        B7                         Em
'Til I realize that every penny′s spent
       Em
After everything I′ve been through
                                  Am7
My infernal heart is yearning to repent
                                    B7
But I plummet further into all the feelings
                    Em
Of regret and discontent

Verse 6
         Em
Well, I guess there ain't no reason for the rhyme
                              Am7
And there′s no rhythm to the beat

You could make yourself a millionaire
     B7                              Em
And still end up out living on the street
                Em
You might as well just take it in
                                         Am7
And leave the anguish for another broken soul

With a chilling hint of distance
      B7                              Em
Left between you and whoever's in control
