Counting Crows - Palisades park

^ASomebody screamed and all of Jim Jeffries dreams Explode against a b^Glack fist

He stares up at the s^Aky and he may wish he knew why But he can’t go b^Gack there no more

The ^Bmfuture sounds so crazy We all h^Dmaj7eard that song before Tomor^Bmrow's the name we changed from yesterday to blame When the t^Dmaj7rain just don't stop here anymore

I got s^Atarry-eyed on the coaster ride Andy said, "^GMan, I need a break from the world outside These days, my li^Afe just careens through a pinball machine I could do so much b^Getter, but I can't get off the TILT"

T^Bm7here’s a photograph on the TV Black and white and — A^Dndy says something to you — J^Bm7ack Johnson straddling Reno, Nevada like — She says “I f^Dmaj7orget myself sometimes too”

Out past the d^Esus4oorways where we are sleeping The White Q^Eueens creep and the tomcats peep

And n^Dow I’m not breaking The t^Esus4rain’s just shaking I n^Aever made it here before ^D There's a ^Dmaj7Wild Mouse spinning the g^Eirls around Til they ca^An't take it anymore ^D I used to dr^Dmaj7eam in the dark of P^Esus4alisades Park ^AUp over the cliffs and d^Down among the sparks It’s a ^Dmaj7long life full of l^Esus4ong nights But it’s n^F#mot what I was w^Esus4aiting fo^Dr ^GEverybody's seen the h^F#morses diving down the s^Bhore It's a ^F#m7miracle they don't make them anymo^Bre

^Esus4So…”Make up ladies”…Wake up baby [Verse 2]

^AYou walked into the bar like some Saturday star Stud-straight on s^Gpiked heels and needles and nerves You’re a dow^Antown pride fully-amplified Clyde Gin-tight and a^Gging but well-preserved

Remember A^Bm7ndy standing outside your bedroom window Saying “Come on, let’s d^Dmaj7rive across to the Palisades ^Bm7Keep going til we hit Reno, Nevada" I don't see Andy all that m^Dmaj7uch these days

Still, there are p^Bmages in back of the Action stacks ^Esus4Where the White Queens creep and the tomcats peep

A^Dnd the train’s not braking The t^Esus4rack’s just shaking And I ne^Aver made it here be^Dfore There's a ^Dmaj7Sky Rocket turning the w^Esus4orld around Til I c^Aan't take it anymor^De You can ^Dmaj7carry that spark from Pa^Esus4lisades Park ^ADown over the cliffs and o^Dut into the dark It’s a l^Dmaj7ong life full of lo^Esus4ng nights But it’s n^F#mot what I was l^Eooking ^Dfor ^GEverybody dreams of ho^F#mrses flying ‘round the sh^Bore It’s a ^Dbad dream we’re not ha^Esus4ving anym^Aore

^Amaj7Man, have you seen A^Bm7ndy? Hey m^Amaj7an, have you seen him around? ^Bm7 Hey m^Amaj7an, have you seen my, my, my, my, my, my A^Bm7ndy? Hey man, have you s^Amaj7een him?

Hey, have you seen Andy a^Bm7round? ^Amaj7Dressed up in our pirate best A^Bm7ll leathers and feathers and pearls Andy said “L^Esus4ook at me man!

These hands could fin^Ager up this whole world!” He said “Come outsi^Amaj7de Climb o^Bm7ut your bedroom window ^Esus4Shimmy down the fire escape And s^Aay goodbye”

Come out^Amaj7side Andy says, "I'm dressed up just like Ed^Bm7ie

My l^Esus4eopard spots to polka dots" And s^Aay goodbye"

Come outside^Amaj7 Maybe we could move to Cali^Bm7fornia Just m^Esus4eet me at the subway And sa^Ay goodbye Come ou^Amaj7tside The cops all think we’re c^Bm7razy But if you stay, you’ll just get ma^Esus4rried

And then s^Aay goodbye H^Amaj7ey Man, have you seen Andy? I l^Bm7ost her in the sun I was h^Esus4igh as a kite on Lovely & White Man, you could lose an^Ayone

Hey hey m^Amaj7an, have you seen Andy? I don't kn^Bm7ow where she's gone ^Esus4Real love outlives teenage lust We could get ^Amaj7wet and it keeps us warm

^Esus4Love is like Angel Dust - Lovely sometimes changes us.^Amaj7..sometimes not ^Esus4Have you been aching with trust or just ^Bm7Have you been waking yourself with lust…? ^Dmaj7Have you been making us up or just taking us home^B?

^AIt's a long wait at a l^Amaj7ong light ^ACars frozen in flight All the t^Graffic stops to stare

At a c^Bm7rosswalk in Reno, Nevada ^Dmaj7Wearing nothing but air And a pair of g^Bm7rey paper wings Andy thinks “I g^Dmaj7ot nothing to wear”

^Bm7We got nothing new and… ^Dmaj7We got nothing to wear… ^Bm7We got nothing to wear… ^Dmaj7We got nothing to wear…
