The Handsome Family - 24 hour store

^GLate late at night ^Bm24-hour store ^CGhosts fly up the aisles Across the ^Gshining floor ^{D Am}Opening and closing ^CAutomatic doors

^GHands waving mirrors ^BmAngels fly through lights ^CBut the sleepless and lost Push their ^Gsqueaking carts ^{D Am}Down the rows of clothes And see^C nothing at ^Gall

^GNo, no-one hears the singing ^Bmbones And no-one ^Emsees the crying ^Cghosts And everyone ^Gthinks I'm ^Dalone ^GAll alone

But under ^Gconcrete and steel ^BmLinoleum floors There is a ^Cfire that will ^Gnever die ^{D Am}A golden wheel ^Cinside the ^Gworld

^GA golden wheel in ^Bmplastic and bows ^CIn particles of light that fall ^Gfrom the sun ^{D Am}A river of candles ^Ctumbling in the dar^Gk

^GNo, no-one hears the singing ^Bmbones And no-one ^Emsees the crying ^Cghosts And everyone ^Gthinks I'm ^Dalone ^GAll alone
