Verse I
Bm A G D
One hand on this wily comet,
Bm A D
Take a drink just to give me some weight,
Bm A G D
Some uber-man I'd make,
G A
I'm barely a vapor
Bm A G D
They shone a chlorine light on,
Bm A D
A host of individual sins,
Bm A G D
Let's carve my aging face off,
A D
Fetch us a knife,
A D
Start with my eyes,
A D
Down so the lines,
G A
Form a grimacing smile,
Bm A G D
Close your eyes to corral a virtue,
Bm A D
Is this fooling anyone else?
Bm A G D
Never worked so long and hard,
G A
To cement a failure,
Bm A G D
We can blow on our thumbs and posture,
Bm A D
But the lonely are such delicate things,
Bm A G D
The wind from a wasp could blow them,
A D
Into the sea,
A D
With stones on their feet,
A D G A
Lost to the light and the loving we need,
Chorus:
G D
Still to come,
G D A
The worst part and you know it,
G D
There is a numbness,
G D A Bm
In your heart and it's growing,
=Solo Section= Repeat 2x
*you can whistle if you'd like. that's what I do.*

Verse II:
Bm A G D
With burnt sage and a forest of bygones,
Bm A D
I click my heels, get the devils in line,
Bm A G D
A list of things I could lay the blame on,
G A
Might give me a way out,
Bm A G D
But with each turn it stays front and center,
Bm A D
Like a dart stuck square in your eye,
Bm A G D
Every post you can hitch your faith on,
A D
Is a pie in the sky,
A D
Chock full of lies,
A D
A tool we devise,
G A
To make sinking stones fly,
Chorus:
G D
Still to come,
G D A
The worst part and you know it,
G D
There is a numbness,
G D A Bm
In your heart and it's growing,
