[Bm] You're [Am] on the bottom
[Cm] I noticed that this ceremony, [D] your corrupt ways, had finally [G] made you blind
[Cm] I can't remember your face [D] anymore, your mouth has changed, your eyes don't [G] look the same
The [Em] priest wore [Bm] black on the seventh [Am] day, and sat stone [G]-faced while a building [Em] burned
I waited for [Bm] you on the running boards, [Am] near the cypress tree [G] while the springtime [Bm] turned
[C] Slowly into autumn
[G]
Yeti, it's weird
[C] Blowing like a circle [G] around my skull

[Em] Down [Bm] the highway, down [Am] the tracks, down the [G] road to [Em] ecstasy

And I'll never [Bm] know the same about [Am] you, your holiness, [G] or your kind of [Bm] love
And it makes me [C] feel so sorry
[G] Yeti, it's weird
[C] Blowing through the buttons [G] of our coats
