VERSE 1
-------
Bm* A* G* Em
I think I'll go home and mull this over
Til I crDam it doAwn my throGat
Bm* A* G* Em
At long last it's crashed, it's colossal mass
Has broken upD into bitAs in my moGat
CHORUS 2
--------
Em Rip the mDattress Em off the flDoor
Em Walk the cDramps off, go meAander in the cGold
Em Heavy and dDark skinned,Em hiding the fDact you're dead again
Em UnderneaDth the powerlAines seeking shaGde
G/F# G /F# G /#F G /F# G
Far above our heads are the icy heights that contain all reason
VERSE 2
-------
It's a lucious mix of words and tricks
That let us bet when we know we should fold
On rocks I've dreamt of where we stepped
And the whole mess of roads we're now on
CHORUS 2
--------
Hold your glass up, hold it in
Never betray the way you've always known it is
One day I'll be wondering how I got so old
Just wondering how I never got cold wearing nothing in the snow
This is way beyond my remote concern of being condescending
