verse:
Cadd9 Am/C
saw a rising red lung
Cadd9 Gmadd4
glisten under the sun
Cadd9 Gmadd4
i wonder when it will pop
Fadd4 (only one bar)
in the snow
Cadd9 Am/C
the melody?s a mistake
Cadd9 Gmadd4
an embrace at the wake
Cadd9 Gmadd4
how long does it take
Fadd4
for us to know
Cadd9 Am/C
i want a wig that?s been blown
Cadd9 Gmadd4
by something unknown
Cadd9 Gmadd4
buried under a mile
Fadd4
of snow
Cadd9 Am/C
found a fix for the fits
Cadd9 Gmadd4
come listen to this
Cadd9 Gmadd4
as intimate as a kiss
Fadd4
over a phone
Dm9
and it goes?
instrumental:
Dm9

found a fix for the fits
Cadd9 Gmadd4
come listen to this
Cadd9 Gmadd4
it?s buried under the hiss
Fadd4 (only one bar)
and It glows
Cadd9 Am/C
like a powerful smile

a car radio dial
Cadd9 Gmadd4
as intimate as a kiss
Fadd4
over a phone

and it goes?
