I saw a treehouse on the outskirts of the farm. The power lines have floaters so the airplanes won't get snagged. Bells are ringing through the town again, Children look up, all they hear is sky-blue, bells ringing And the train conductor says "Take a break Driver 8, Driver 8 take a break We can reach our destination, but we're still a ways away"

W^Amay to seal the hated h^Ceat. W^Gay to put myself to sl^Deep. W^Amay to shield the hated^C heat. G D/Dsus4 Way to put myself, my children to sleep.

He piloted this song in a plane like that one. She is selling faith on the Go Tell crusade. Locomotive 8, Southern Crescent, hear the bells ring again. Field to weed is lookin' thin And the train conductor says "Take a break Driver 8, Driver 8 take a break We've been on this shift too long." And the train conductor says "Take a break Driver 8, Driver 8 take a break We can reach our destination, but we're still a ways away" ---------------------------------------------------------------------- "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.

^EmI hold my breath I^B com^A5e 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-G It's going down, down, down G-A-G-F# This runaround, round, round F#-G-F#-F Is bound to pound

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
