[B]
[Em] Well.
[Bm] [G]
[Em] [A] On a walk [G] in a fragile [D] stage, [Em] [A] weird angles [G] coming over on the wire.
[Em] [A] Back home we [G] got girls [Bm] in braids, [G] they're on roller [Bm] skates and [C] they roll any way they like.
From [A] my town [G] I can [Bm] always look down, [Em] [A] down my nose [G] at the fish in the barrels.
[Em] [A] Within the wires [G] of human [Bm] life [G] there are [D] pretty knives [C] and a ray of gentle eyes.
[Em] So [E] [A] tonight,
[C] [A] dance and cry,
[C] you're [G] dead alone.
[Em] [A] Monuments [G] for our full [D] events, [Em] I [A] float by [G] in a daze on the freeway.
[Em] [A] We can whine [G] about different [Bm] times [G] but me [D] I'm fine [C] with the mirrors far away.
[Em] [A] For the mills in [G] the valley to function, [Em] [A] rain's gonna fall [G] on the hills where we hike.
[Em] And [A] wash the blood and [G] the guts to [D] the ocean, [G] [D] feed the pike, [C] making everything alright.
[Em]
[E] So [A] tonight,
[C] [A] dance and cry,
[C] you're [G] dead alone.

[D] [G]

[D] [G] You're [Em]

dead [Em] alone.
