Modest Mouse - World at large

^CIce-age heat wave, can't complain. If the ^G6world's at large, why should I remain? ^AmWalked away to another plan. ^FGonna find another place, maybe one I can stand. I ^Cmove on to another day, to a ^G6whole new town with a whole new way. ^AmWent to the porch to have a thought. ^FGot to the door and again, I couldn't stop. ^CYou don't know where and you don't know when. But you ^G6still got your words and you got your friends. ^AmWalk along to another day. ^FWork a little harder, work another way.

Well ^Cuh-uh baby I ain't got no plan. We'll ^G6float on maybe would you understand? Gonna ^Amfloat on maybe would you understand? Well I'll ^Ffloat on maybe would you understand?

The ^Cdays get shorter and the nights get cold. I l^G6ike the autumn but this place is getting old. I ^Ampack up my belongings and I head for the coast. It ^Fmight not be a lot but I feel like I'm making the most. The ^Cday's get longer and the nights smell green. I ^G6guess it's not surprising but it's spring and I should leave. ^Am

I ^Clike songs about drifters - books about the same. They ^G6both seem to make me feel a little less insane. ^AmWalked on off to another spot. I ^Fstill haven't got anywhere that I want. Did I ^Cwant love? Did I need to know? Why ^G6does it always feel like I'm caught in an undertow? ^Am

The ^Cmoths beat themselves to death against the lights. ^G6Adding their breeze to the summer nights. ^AmOutside, water like air was great. I ^Fdidn't know what I had that day. ^CWalk a little farther to another plan. You ^G6said that you did, but you didn't understand.^Am

I ^Cknow that starting over is not what life's all about. But my ^G6thoughts were so loud, I couldn't hear my mouth. My ^Amthoughts were so loud, I couldn't hear my mouth. My ^Fthoughts were so loud.
