[G]
[Cm] [G]
So I'm there,
[Cm] charging around with [G] a juggernaut brow
Overdraft speeches and deadlines to make
Dramatic commitments like cats in a sack
Telephone burnin' at purposeful gates
[Cm] Went out of the doorway, [G] the tentacle stretch
Of a song that I know and the world moves in slow-mo
Straight to my head like the first cigarette of the day
[Eb] And it's you, [G] and it's me, and I'm sleeping [Eb] through [G] the day
And I'm five years ago, and three [Eb] thousand miles [G] away
[Cm] [G]
[Cm] You [G] are half time, and none of my calibers stood in the street
Like a sleepwalking teenager, no
And [Cm] I've dealt with this years [G] ago
I took a hammer to every mental
But image on image [Cm] like beats on [G] rosary
Pull through my head as the music takes hold
And the sickness, I can work till I break
But I love the bones in you that I will never escape
[Eb] And it's you, [G] and it's me, and we're sleeping [Eb] through [G] the day
And I'm five years ago, and three [Eb] thousand miles [G] away
[Eb] And I can't [G] move my arm, [Cm] the fear that [G] you will wake
And I'm five years ago, and three thousand miles [C] [B] away
