[E] [F#] [Em]
[E]
I [Em] sat in the corner of the garden grill with the plastic flowers on the windowsill.

No more [Bm] miracles, loaves and fishes being so [E] busy with the washing of the dishes.
[C] Reaction levels much too high.
[D] I can't do without the stimuli.
[E]
I'm living way [Em] beyond my ways and means, living in the zone of the in-betweens.
[E]
I see the flames in the frozen ocean, static charge of [Bm] the frozen [E] ocean.
[G] Watched on by the distant eyes, [A] [G] watched on by the [F#] silent, [G] hidden [E] slides.
[A] [E]
[Em] But [A] [Am] still the warmth flows through me, [Bm] and I sense [G] you know me [C] well.
[G] [D]
No luck, no golden chances, [G]
no mitigating circumstances [C] now.
[G]
[Em] [C] [A] [D] It's only common sense, [G] there are no accidents [D] around here.
I am willing, I am hands on deck.
[C]

Often staunless roses fat men play with their garden hosts.
[F] [E] I laugh as a cynical bite, sausage sphere.
