_ Mirror's on my lap, guitar holding it in place. _ _ _ _
[F#] _ Wind, [B] no wind in my room.
_ [E] _ _ [N] _ Boy, those of you who gamble, you want to put your bets down as to whether the wind is going to fuck this up for us.
_ [F#] _ I want your hair clip.

_ [E] _ _ _ _ [G#] _
_ [N] _ _ _ Well, we'll see.
There is wind.
[E] _ _ _
There may be some awkward [F#] pauses in the rhythm.
I want you to consider those like the scratch breaks.
Y'all can throw in a [E] scratch or two. _
We _ _ _ _ _
_ [A] _ _ _ _ [E] _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ live high out of gorges.
On the alcohol we feed it.
And it grows all fat and friendly.
We have surplus if we need it.
We hold [E] on as hard as we can.
[A] _
_ _ _ _ Our knuckles are flat. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _
We write letters to each other.
Invent secrets to confess to.
We learn foreign and exotic terms of endearment by which to address you.
We feed fresh [A] fruit to one another.
_ _ We stay up [E] all night. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ And I am [B] healthy.
I am whole.
But I [E] have poor impulse control.
And I [E] want to go home. _ _ _
[B] But I am whole. _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
We are strong.
We are faithful.
We are guardians of our air.
We play close, careful attention.
To the news the evening air brings.
We show [A] great _ loyalty.
[E] To _ _ _ _ the hard times we've been through. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
We are filled with riches and wonders.
Our love keeps the things it finds.
And we dance like drunken sailors.
Lost at sea, out of our minds.
You find [Em] shelter [A] somewhere in me.
[A] I _ _ take great comfort in [E] you.
[B] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [E] _ And I can leave [F#] you safe from harm.
[C] You hold [E] me in your [B] arm.
And I want to go home. _ _ _
[F#] But I am whole. _ _ _
