David Gray - Draw the line

^BbmWell we had to pull on something ^AbSo we’re grabbing at the threads ^BbmAnd now the world’s unravelling ^AbInside our very heads ^BbmGlasses smeared with lipstick ^AbHungry eyes out in the street ^BbmSame old bodies moving ^AbTo the same old beat

Had to draw the l^Bbmine Had to draw the li^Abne

^BbmAll this talk can hypnotize you and ^AbWe can ill afford ^BbmTo give ourselves to sentiment ^AbWhen our time is oh so short ^BbmThere are names beneath the lichen ^AbOn these cemetery stones ^BbmAnd carnivals of silverfish ^AbWaiting to dance upon our bones
