We must talk in every telephone Get eaten off the web
C F GWe must rip out all the epilogues in the books that we have read
C FAnd in the face of every criminal Strapped firmly to a chair
We must stare, we must stare, we must stare
C F CWe must take all of the medicines too expensive now to sell
C F GSet fire to the preacher who is promising us hell
And in the ear of every anarchist that sleeps but doesn't dream
C G CWe must sing, we must sing, we must sing
It'll go like this:
While my mother waters plants
C FMy father loads his guns
F GHe says death will give us back to god
Just like this setting sun is returned to this lonesome ocean
And then they splashed into the deep blue sea
C F G C F C C G CIt was a wonderful splash
C F C
We must blend into the choir Sing ecstatic with the whole
C F GWe must memorize nine numbers and deny we have a soul
And in this endless race for property and privilege to be one
C G CWe must run, we must run, we must run
C F CWe must hang up in the belfry where the bats and moonlight laugh
We must stare into a crystal ball and only see the past
C FAnd in the caverns of tomorrow With just our flashlights and our love
C G CWe must plunge, we must plunge, we must plunge
C
And then we'll get down there to the very bottom of everything
And we'll see it, we'll see it, we'll see it
F G C F
Oh my mornings coming back The whole world's waking up
F G Am FIn the city buses are swimming past I'm happy just because
I found out I'm really no one
We Are Nowhere and It's Now

If you hate the taste of wine, why do you drink it till your blind
G Bm C D EmAnd if you swear that there's no truth and who cares, how come you say it
like you're right
G Bm Em D G Bm Em DWhy are you scared to dream of God, when it's salvation that you want
G Bm C D EmYou see, stars that clear have been dead for years, but the idea just lives
on
G Bm Em D G Bm Em DIn our wheels that roll around, as we move over the ground
G Bm C D Em Dand all day it seems we've been in between, a past and future town
Em D
We are nowhere and it's now
Em DWe are nowhere and it's now
In like a ten minute dream in the passenger seat
G D EmmWhile the world was flying by
Emm DI haven't been gone very long but it seems like a lifetime
G Em G Bm G Em G Bm D
I been sleeping so strange at night

With a head full of pesticide
G Bm Em D G Bm Em D
I got no plans and too much time, I feel to restless to unwind
G Bm C D Em DI'm always lost in thought as i walk the block to my favorite neon-sign
Where the waitress looks concerned, but she never says a word
G Bm C D Em DJust turns the jukebox on and we hum along and i smile back at her
G Bm Em D G Bm Em DAnd my friend comes after work, when the features starts to blurr
She says: "These bars are filled with things that kill, but now you
Em Dprobably should have learned"
Did you forget that yellow bird?
Em DHow could you forget that yellow bird
C DShe took a small silverese and pinned it on to me,
and said this one will bring you luck
Em DI don't know if it's true, but i keep it for good luck

Old Soul Song (For The New World)
D Bm G A D D Bm G A D
Grey like new day leaks through the window
G A Dand some old song comes on the alarm clock radio.
D Dsus BmWe walk the forty blocks to the middle
of the place we heard where everything would be

We left before the dust had time to settle
and all the broken glass swept off the avenue.

And I stood nervous next to you in the dark room,

When everything gets lonely I can be my own best friend
I'll grab a coffee and the paper; have my own conversations

Am7 G Dsus(000232)The reasons have run away but the feeling never did
It's not something I would recommend, but it is one way to live
Am C Am D G G2 G G2Cause what is simple in the moonlight, by the morning never is

Trail Under Water
Capo 4
A
A E
You were born inside of a raindrop
I watched you falling to your death
A EAnd the sun, well it could not save you
D AIt'd fallen down too, the streets are wet
Body of water, toxic and timeless
D AThe Atlantic ocean, New York skyline
A EI always get lost when I leave the village
So I couldn't come meet you in Brooklyn last night
A EBut I sing glory for my lowest
D EAnd I will say peace to the people at me
While the world waits for an explosion
D AThat instant of life that wipes that slate clean
F# E
So don't be fooled
F# ESo don't be lied to
Love was always cruel
F# EDon't act strange
F# EDon't be a stranger
It happened to me, now it's happening to you
DBut if you take that train underwater then we could talk it through
A E D A A E D A
A E
Well if I could tame all of my desires
Wait out the weather that howls in my brain
A EBecause it seems that it's always changing
D AThe wind's indecision, the sorrowful rain
I was a postcard, I was a record
D AI was a camera until I went blind
A ENow I'm riding all over this island
Looking for something to open my eyes
A EWell we still sing glory from a highrise
D AAnd I will say thanks if you're pouring my drinks
While the world waits for an explosion
D AThat moment in time when we are set free
F# E
So don't stay mad
F# EJust let some time pass
And in the morning you'll wake feeling new
F# EAnd if I don't come back
F# EI mean, if I get sidetracked
It's only 'cause I wanted to
DKeeping up with the moon on an all night avenue

First Day of my Life
C E Am F G C x2(Pick)
This is the first day of my life
F G CSwear I was born right in the doorway
C E AmI went out in the rain, suddenly everything changed
They're spreading blankets on the beach
C E AmYours is the first face that I saw
F G CThink I was blind before I met you
Don't know where I am, don't know where I've been
D7 GBut I know where I want to go
C G Am
So I thought I'd let you know
F GThat these things take forever
I especially am slow
D2(003230) CBut I realized how I need you and I wondered if I could come home
C G Am D2(003230) F2(006560) F?(006568)
C E Am
I remember the time you drove all night
Just to meet me in the morning
C E AmI thought it was strange, you said everything changed
D7 GYou felt as if you'd just woke up
And you said, "This is the first day of my life.
F G CI'm glad I didn't die before I met you.
C E AmNow I don't care, I could go anywhere with you,
And I'd probably be happy."
So if you want to be with me
F GWith these things there's no telling
C C/B AmWe'll just have to wait and see
But I'd rather be working for a paycheck than waiting to win the lottery
Besides, maybe this time its different, I mean I really think you like me

Another Travelin Song
Intro
B E
i'm changin all my strings i'm gonna write another travelin' song
B F#about all the million highways and the cities at the break of dawn
i guess the best that i can do now is pretend that i done nothin wrong
F# E Band to dream about a train thats gonna take back where i belong
B EThe ocean speaks and spits and I can feel it from the interstate.
and I'm screaming my brother on a cell phone, he is far away.
B EI'm saying nothing in the past or the future ever will feel like today.
F# E BI tell him park it in the alley and just hoping that our shit is safe.
E B
So I go back and forth forever
All my thoughts they come in pairs
E F#Oh, I will, I won't, I doubt, I don't
C#m E F# BI'm not surprised, and I never feel quite prepared
Now I'm hunched over a typewriter, I guess you'd call it painting in a cave.
And there's a word I can't remember and a feeling I cannot forsake.
And now my ashtray's overflowing, I'm still staring at a clean, white page.
F# E BThe morning's at my window and she's sending me to bed again.
B EWell I dreamed of dark on the horizon, I dreamed of desert where the dead lay down.
I dreamed a prostituted child touching an old man in a fast food crowd.
B EOh yeah I dreamt the ship was sinking there were people screaming all around
F# E Band I awoke to my alarm clock, it was a pop song, it was playing loud.
E B
So I will find my fears and face them,
Or I will cower like a dog.
E F#I'll kick and scream or kneel in glee,
C# E F# BI'll fight like hell to hide that I'm giving up!

Landlock Blues
Capo 3
If you walk away, I'll walk away
C G CFirst tell me which road you will take
Am G C AmI don't want to risk our paths crossing some day
So you walk that way, I'll walk this way
C G CAnd the future hangs over our heads
C G CAnd it moves with each current event
Until it falls all around like a cold steady rain
C G CJust stay in when it's looking this way
C G CAnd the moon's laying low in the sky
Forcing everything metal to shine
Am G C AmAnd the sidewalk holds diamonds like the jewelry store case
C G CThey argue walk this way, now walk this way
And Laura's asleep in my bed
C G CAs I'm leaving she wakes up and says
Am G C Am"I dreamed you were carried away on the crest of a wave
Baby don't go away, come here"
C G CAnd there's kids playing guns in the street
C G CAnd ones pointing his tree branch at me
So I put my hands up I say "enough is enough,
C G CIf you walk away, I'll walk away"
And he shot me dead
Am G C
I found a liquid cure
From my landlocked blues
F G C AmIt'll pass away like a slow parade
C G CIt's leaving but I don't know how soon
C G C C G C Am G C Am C G C
And the world's got me dizzy again
C G CYou think after 22 years I'd be used to the spin
Am G C AmAnd it only feels worse when I stay in one place
So I'm always pacing around or walking away
I keep drinking the ink from my pen
And I'm balancing history books up on my head
But it all boils down to one quotable phrase
If you love something, give it away
A good woman will pick you apart
A box full of suggestions for your possible heart
But you may be offended and you may be afraid
But don't walk away, don't walk away
We made love on the living room floor
With the noise in background of a televised war
And in the deafening pleasure I thought I heard someone say
"If we walk away, they'll walk away"
But greed is a bottomless pit
And our freedom's a joke
We're just taking a piss
And the whole world must watch the sad comic display
If you're still free start running away
Cause we're coming for you!
I've grown tired of holding this post
I feel more like a stranger each time I come home
So I'm making a deal with the devils of faith
Saying "let me walk away, please"
You'll be free child once you have died
From the shackles of language and immeasurable time
And then we can trade places, play musical grace
Till then walk away, walk away
Am G C
So I'm up at dawn
Am G CPutting on my shoes
I just want to make a clean escape
C G CI'm leaving but I don't know where to
C G CI know I'm leaving but I don't know where to

A Dsus3when a telephone was a tin can on a string
and i fell asleep with you still talking to me
A Dsus3 A Dsus3you said you weren't afraid to die
A Dsus3in polaroids you were dressed in womans clothes
were you made ashamed?
Dsus3why'd you lock them in the drawer?
F#/A Ewell i don't think that i ever loved you than when
you turned away
Dsus3when you slammed the door
Fm7(200230)when you stole the car
drove towards mexico
Aand you wrote bad checks
Dsus3just to fill your arm
i was young enough
Em7i still believed in war
A Fm7 A Fm7
E Fm7(200230)
but let the poets cry themselves to sleep
an all there tearful words will turn back into steam
A Dsus3me i'm a single cell on the serpents tongue
Fm7 Em7theres a muddy field where the garden was
well im glad you got away
Dsus3but i'm still stuck out here
Fm7my clothes are soaking wet
from your brothers tears
E Fm7
and i never thought this life was possible
Eyour the yellow bird
that i've been waiting for
Athe end of paralysis

Em7on a piano bench
Aand when i press the keys
its all gets reversed
Fm7the sound of loneliness
Em7makes me happier

The sun came up with no conclusion
It's flowers sleeping in their beds
The cities cometary's humming
I'm wide-awake, it's morning
I have my drugs, I have my woman
They keep away my loneliness
My parents have they have their religion
But sleep in separate houses
Em Am
I read the body count out of the paper
And now it's written all over my face
Em AmNo one ever plans to sleep out in the gutter
F G CSometimes that's just the most comfortable place
So I'm drinking, breathing, writing, singing Everyday up on the clock
My mind races with all my longings But cant keep up with what I got
I hope I don't sound too ungrateful What history gave modern man
The telephone to talk to strangers Machine guns and the camera lens
Em Am
So when you're asked to fight a war that's over nothing
It's best to join the side that's gonna win
Em AmAnd no one's sure how all of this got started
F G CBut we're gonna make them goddam certain how its gonna end
Oh ya we will, oh ya we will!
Well I could have been a famous singer
If I had someone else's voice
But failure's always sounded better C C C C
Lets fuck it up boys, make some noise!
The sun came up with no conclusion
It's flowers sleeping in their beds
The cities cometary's humming
I'm wide-awake, it's morning
