C                      
While you were reading 

            F/C          C
Your black Bible in the sun,

Am                        G
I was drunk half out the window
        F
of a moving city bus
G                C
Wilder than the devil
        F
like a tiger in the brush
G               C
Louder than an atom bomb
     F
That you could only hush
G                   C
Spinning like the earth and moon
    F
So close but never touched
G               C               F
Of all the ways I wanted to be loved
G                 C       F/C     C
You were not enough
 
C                     F/C  
While your head was bowed 
                     C
And hands praying to God

Am                      G
I was swinging from the chandeliers
F
Like some endangered animal
G                C               F
somewhere in New Orleans on the run
Am                     G
Like I just won the lottery
      F
With god knows what inside of me
G                 C          F
Hair a mess and shoelaces undone
G                C             F
Of all the ways I wanted you
 G                  C     F/C    C
You were not the one
 
C                                
While they were teaching you how
 
F/C                  C
Moses split the sea,

Am                                 
I was in an airplane bathroom doing 
 G                   F
Speedballs off the sink

G             C
High as any angel
        F
Moving at the speed of sound
G                 C   
Someplace over Germany 
F
Moving through the clouds

G                   C       
Winking back at stewardesses 

  F
Plying me with Ale,

G                      C
Big hooped golden earrings
         F
staying at the same hotel
G                   C   
Of all the ways I wanted 
          F
You to hold me,

G                 C      F/C   C
I could not be held
 
C                      
While you were waiting 
        F/C             C
For the doctor in the chair

  Am                              
I was stoned riding the 
 G 
Cyclone at the 
       F
Onslow county fair
G                      C
The stars above us sparkled
            F
Like they didn’t pay the bill
G                   C
Smokes behind the haunted house
 F
Chugging stolen beers
G            C       F
cotton candy kisses underneath
The Ferris wheel
G                    C            F
Of all the ways you wanted me to feel
G              C
I could never heal
 
C                     F/C     
While you were waiting in the
                  C
 Depot for the train

Am                       G
I was asleep on stolen cargo
          F
In the back of someone’s plane
G                C
Halfway back to Florida
      F
from Cuba in the rain
G                               
Low enough to feel the
  C 
 Water from the 

             F
Sea spray on the waves 

G                    
Underneath the radar 
   C 
Hauling crates of 
     F
Pure cocaine

G               C
Hungover and laughing
        F
High above the Everglades
G                 C           F
Of all the ways I wanted to be tamed
G             C       F/C         C
I was just insane
 
C                             
While you were waiting in the 

F/C             C
Lobby for your man

Am                   
I was working at the 

  G           F
Circus as a garbage man

G                 C
Remembering that winter
               F
You were in a long black coat
G                           C
Now I’m at home with the animals
  F
Knife at my own throat
G                       C             
We hear the bells of freedom but the 
 F
Genes all just say no

G               C
If I was the Titanic
          F
You were pink clouds and blue smoke
G                 C
Rising over Hemingway
       F
In an old man’s fishing boat
G                   C      
Of all the things I wished 
               F
That you were now

G             C
You are not around
