Verse III

Em C
In this local exit highway night
D Em
We must grow accustomed to the sight
Am Am7 C C7
And empty all surprise to see the capsize of the semis

Em C
Cause nothing will stop the worlds physics from working
D Em
Or the manner in which its situated and lurking
Am Am7
Permanently so externally
C C7
But theres pleasure and death in each second to be reckoned with



Verse IV

Em C
And theres boredom and sex within each wild minute
D Em
And the mildest hour has some deadly power in it
Am Am7
And maybe ill cower with Yia Yias silk flowers
C C7
As the motion sensor light does brighten and sour



(Strumming Pattern Changes here)

Em C
On the back patio where the raccoons go
D Em
Whining and divining through the grainy night glow
Am Am7
The same as me as Im fumbling to see
C C7
An inch off my face with a pinch of disgrace


Small Breakdown (no Banjo)

Em C
Each photo of the summer is one in the same
D Em
With a bloodshot number in the corner of the frame
Am Am7
Dating each time that we became
C C7
Memorialized in the dimming


Repeat Chorus & Intro Riff x2


Verse V

Em C
A bat circles above my brain
D Em
As I walk down St. Joseph in the dusky graininess,
Am Am7 C C7
yes this gorgeousness is growing too dark too mention

Em C
What becomes of the summer skin
D Em
When it disintegrates in the blackness of the past
Am Am7 C C7
At last Ive become an extension

Then with the whole band. Second time through strum chords.
