verse 1
C
When you add your voice to bad choices
C
Then your noise, so white, becomes mammoth
C
It's dripping down the walls like quicksilver
C
Dripping down us slowly as Saturn
Bridge

And for you, the Pulitzer prize
C
Just step into traffic
C
Now in you, the Americas
C
You broke through, you loved 'em

We have found a use for the profane

Searching for the gods in the corners
C
With the ignorance of the poet
C
And unbreakable focus of martyrs
C Eb F C
Oh darling share the shade
Eb F Bb
Oh darling share the shade
Interlude
C
verse 3
C
Once a singer from the bad choices
C
On a singer without a pretense
C
When you give your mind to your voices
C
You accept the terms of your sentence

And for you the Pulitzer prize

For time served, you're walking
C
Now in you the Americas
C
You broke through, it's nothing

Oh darling share the shade

Oh darling share the shade

You began to climb a new tower

Thinking you could learn a new language

Since you left everybody hanging

Oh darling share your shade

Oh darling share your shade
