Capo 3
FRadio waves are coming Fmiles and mileFs
FBringing only empty Fboats
Whatever feeling they had Fwhen they sFailed
FSomehow slipped out between the Fnotes
AmOut on the desert and Ffeeling Flost
AmThe bonnet wears a wire FalbatroFss
AmMonster ballads and the Fstations of the Fcross
GSighing just a little Fbit
GSighing just a little Fbit
And I was thinking 'bout what Katy done
Thinking 'bout what Katy did
The fairest daughter of the Pharoah's son
Dressed in gold 'neath pyramids
Out on the desert now and feeling lost
The bonnet wears a wire albatross
Monster ballads and the stations of the cross
Sighing just a little bit
Sighing just a little bit
FOnes and zeroes bleeding mesa noise
FAnd when you're empty there's so Gmuch space for them
FYou turn it off but then a still, small voice
FComes in blazing from some Gvast horizon
[piano solo]
And I was thinking 'bout my river days
And I was thinking 'bout me and Jim
Passing cairo on a getaway
With every steamboat like a hymn
Out on the desert now and feeling lost
The bonnet wears a wire albatross
Monster ballads and the stations of the cross
Sighing just a little bit
GSmiling just a little Fbit
