Verse:

BIt's only when your poison spins into the life you'd hoped to live
                                                Aand suddenly you wake up in a shaken panic now
BYou had set me up like a lamb to slaughter

Garbo as a farmer's daughter

Unbelievable, the gospel according to who?
             AI lay right down

Chorus:

F#All your sad and lost apostles
A               Ehum my name and flare their nostrils
F#                                 A      A/Ab/G/F#Choking on the bones you tossed to them
F#now I'm not one to sit and spin
         A                 Ebecause living well's the best revenge
D           A              EBaby, I am calling you on that

Verse:

BDon't turn your talking points on me.

History will set me free
                                                        AThe future is ours and you don't even rate a footnote now!
BSo who's chasing you? Where did you go?

You disappear mid-sentence

In a judgement crisis I see my in and go for it
              AYou weakened shill.

Chorus:

F#All your sad and lost apostles
A                Ehum my name and flare their nostrils
F#                                   A   A/Ab/G/F#Choking on the bones you tossed to them
F#now I'm not one to sit and spin
          A                  Ebecause living well is the best revenge
D                A              Eand baby, I am calling you on that

Verse:

BYou savor your dying breath

I forgive but I don't forget

You work it out, let's hear that argument again
                       ACamera three... GO NOW!

Chorus:

F#All your sad and lost apostles
A                 Ehum my name and flare their nostrils
F#                                   A  Ab/G/F#Choking on the bones you tossed to them
F#now I'm not one to sit and spin

Lyrics:

It's been pretty simple so far, vacation in Athens is calling me
And knock, knock, knock on wood, I thought I'd left you behind
Heaven is yours, heaven is yours, heaven's yours where I live

The thought of the catacombs left my soul at home
This letter never sent
And it's so far, it's so dark, i'm so lost
Heaven's yours, heaven's yours, heaven's yours where I live
  (Another story, another story for a while, someone show me)
When I'm moving too fast, where's my new address?

The water is evening now, the catacombs are filling in
If my soul was made of stone, no, not, not so dark, dark

And it's so far, it's so dark, i'm so lost
And it's so far, it's so far, it's so far

Heaven's yours, heaven's yours, heaven's yours where I live
 (Another story, another story for a while, someone show me)
Heaven's yours, heaven's yours, heaven's yours where I live
 (Another story, another story for a while, someone show me)

Staring Down The Barrel of The Middl Distance

Verse:
E   D2 x However many times necessary

Pre-Chorus Chords:
A5   G5   x How ever many times necessary

Chorus Chords:
A5   B5   C5   D5 x2

(All these patterns just happen many times over)

Now the hope for the future took a pounding in the parking lot
And the answer for today is all I got
When your name is called the lights went down
The time is the essence excuse me
And I'm blinking at the vanishing point of what I thought

Staring down the barrel of the middle distance
God knows I've tried
I close my eyes
I close my eyes
I close my eyes

I greet despair to a standard prayer
If you call for the future I don't care
And I turn you round to face me here
There's a compass raised with a familiar tone
With a voice that needles me to the bone

Staring down the barrel of the middle distance
God knows I've tried
I close my eyes
I close my eyes

Whose position shifts cause its been effect
If you can't hit play cause the button sticks
Ignorance is bliss, I can't say
There's a compass raised with familiar tone
With a voice that needles you to the bone
You're left with chaos, static and delay

Staring down the barrel of the middle distance
Staring down the barrel of the middle distance
God knows I've tried
I close my eyes
I close my eyes
I close my eyes

Staring down the barrel of the middle distance
God knows I've tried
I close my eyes
I close my eyes

Notes:
In the verse it seems that Peter does not hit the high e string but he
strums every chord once and then the stays at the melodic strings til the
next chord.

On the Fly
You said that loving me was falling off a log
You always had a way with words
I"m in a barrel over Niagra Falls
I wonder if I am defaced
If I asked of you just one wish
Would you turn on me and take the fifth
Your off again on some epic celebration
Shooting barrels full of fish
You found another hole to waltz into
You found another car to crash
I figured if out that if you served me up
Another of this shall pass
Its easy laugh off easy to brush aside
We"re living our lives we"re here on the fly
Its easy laugh off easy to brush aside
We"re living our lives we"re here on the fly
And I just happened by

I stood there naked by the trains again
Frozen stock still in the yard
A Heron waiting for the fish to jump
I never let down my guard
I"ve been exclusive when it comes to you
I don"t receive at all
I wished I felt the same when you called me late
I almost wished you didn"t call
God knows what I"m looking for
And God knows what I am
Cause Even Jesus had his reservations
I won"t be doubting you again
I won"t be doubting you again
Its easy laugh off easy to brush aside
We"re living our lives we"re here on the fly
Its easy laugh off easy to brush aside
We"re living our lives we"re here on the fly
And I just happened by
I"m living my life, I"m here on the fly
And I just happened by

"Horse To Water"
BI could have kept my head down

BI might have kept my mouth shut

BI should have held my own,

BYou lead a horse to water and you watch him drown.


SAME PROGRESSION AGAIN:
You're only as big as your battles.
Rattle my cage with your shadow.
I'm a phantom-weight with a mouth full of feathers,
Don't you know that what comes around goes around?


Em    BI'm not that easy,

A5     BI am not your horse to water.

Em                B   A5I hold my breath I come around, round, round.

VERSE PROGRESSION AGAIN:

Don't darken my doorstep again,
You're mixing up living in chin-chin,
You're mixing up lose with win-win,
You lead a horse to water and you watch him drown.

You stumble on glass top table,
TV's chewing shock-gone cable
Pump me up a beanstalk fable
And I'll call this entertainment
'cause Humpty's falling down.


CHORUS:
I'm not that easy,
I am not your horse to water.
I hold my breath I come around, round, round.


VERSE
Pick a fight an ultra-buzzy bubble
Friday night fuckin' fried-up pub crawl
Phantom-weight with a mouth full of feathers,
Don't you know that what comes around goes around?


CHORUS
I'm not that easy,
I am not your horse to water.
I hold my breath I come around, round, round.

It's not that easy
I am not your horse to water
I hold my breath, I come around, round, round

ENDING

A-B-A-GIt's going down, down, down

G-A-G-F#This runaround, round, round

F#-G-F#-FIs bound to pound

E5                      D5                CAs the moths circle the moon, as you're circling the room
E5Music will provide the light you cannot resist

D5       Cyou cannot resist, you cannot resist
G7And the weblogs that get tangled as you bully and you wangle
When you walk up in Seattle, where you fought the nascent battle
G7You threw the thread and throttle let us raise another bottle
Raise another bottle, raise another bottle

Because death is pretty final, I'm collecting vinyl

G   A#-G-A#   C   DI'm gonna DJ at the end of the world

Here comes that awful feeling again
Welcome the ugly animal.

My pyro acrobat ball and chain,
I'm not afraid, I messed it, messed it, messed it, messed it up

If I were you I'd really run from me
I really really wish that I were you
When I get loose I'll climb a treee
and drop a load on your head
This monster in me makes me retch, you messed it, messed it up

FEELING GRAVITY'S PULL


{opening riff}

#har denotes harmonics on that fret(E)---7--------7--------0--------------------------5har--|(B)-----7--------7----0---0----------7har----------5har--|(G)-------10-------10----------------7har----------5har--|(D)----------------------------------7har----------5har--|(A)-------------------------9-9999-9-7har-9-9999-9-------|(E)-------------------------7-7777-7------7-7777-7-------|

  {play the riff but start with the stuff on the 7th fret of
   the low E string}

I fell asleep and read just about every paragraph.

Read the scene where gravity is pulling me around
Peel back the mountains peel back the sky
Stomp gravity into the floor
It's a Man Ray kind of sky
Let me show you what I can do with it
Time and distance are out of place here

{The riff is like this:(B) ------0------0------0------0----|(G) ----0------0------0------0------|(D) --------------------------------|(A) -----------------------0--------|(E) -0------2-------3---------------|

Step up, step up, step up the sky is open-armed
                                        {start the riff again}
When the light is mine, I felt gravity pull

Somewhere near the end it said
"You can't do this", I said "I can too"
Shift sway rivers shift, oceans fall and mountains drift
It's a Man Ray kind of sky
Let me show you what I can do with it

Step up, step up, step up the sky is open-armed
                                          C           DWhen the light is mine, I felt gravity pull onto my eyes,
C            Dholding my head straight (looking down).
 C                              BThis is the easiest task I've ever had to do...
