THE NEVER-ENDING PRESENT by GORD DOWNIE
Tab by Eric Starrs (thestarrsdownunder@hotmail.com)
INTRO: D E7 G
DThis waiting here for a bE7us is
GAlmost better than its cDoming.
Every day it always dE7oes
As I dGaydream or kick some dDirt
Or throw a rock or check my wE7atch
Or cGatch my reflGmaj7ection.
GAnd it barely makes an impressiDon
E7On the never-ending preGsent.
This working from the inside out,
This stepping to the easel,
Is gonna run you into results,
Then there's the materials:
To see beyond your shoes
Reflected in the polish and see some images
Of truth beautifully demolished.
And it barely makes an impression
On the never-ending present.
Steel yourself against the cold
Or look for semi-precious shade.
When the bus crests that hill,
Love and hate are just the same.
Watching as the money drops,
Every day it always does.
Maybe there's a song in here.
No, and in fact, there never was.
Nothing but a little expression
From the never ending present.
Just me doing my impression
Of the never-ending present
