^EmGuard my bed while the ^Amrain turns the ditches to mirrors ^Bbuy a vase of carnations from central Ohio ^Emwhere the looking machine can't hear us

^EmDeep in the night we dream of positions ^Amthere's a line for the phone in the hall ^Band in the cold places where Spanish is spoken ^Emmost wars end in the fall ^CYou never know where your ^Gpet ^Bmwill ^Emgo ^Gpe^Dt ^Gpo^Dli^Gti^Dcs^Em

^EmStill wearing last nights' mascara ^Amnow that her pet was gone for sure ^Bshe was shivering so hard ^Emit looked like there were two of her

^EmI could see through the sleeve of her blouse ^Amthe mute plans of her architect lover ^Ba tattoo of a boarded-up house ^Emand ink door that belonged to another ^CWhen the rain hits you it ^Ghits ^Bmyou ^Emslow ^Gst^Dit^Gch^D a^Gft^Der^Em stitch

Adam was not the first man 'though the Bible tells us so There was one created before him, whose name we do not know He also lived in the garden but he had no mouth or eyes One day Adam came to kill him and he died beneath these skies I find it so amazing how I go where I'm led (x2)

^CI suspect we could be ^Glo^Bmsing ^Emnow ^Gpl^Dea^Gse^D g^Gua^Drd^Em my bed (x3)
