Of Peace, Quiet and Monsters

Capo 4th Fret!!!
C Am
There's a monster at the bottom,
F G
I guess for now he's well fed.
C Am
oh we ain't seen him in a while,
F
Guess he does most of his work
G C C/B Am F C G
While the rest of us are safe in our beds.
C Am
He's summered in the deepest oceans,
F G
He's wintered on a sandy beach.
C Am
They all once tried to keep him grounded,
F
So he prayed like a god
G C C/B Am F C G
From the world's highest peak.
F G
You can always find quiet
C C/B Am
But you can't really ever find peace,
F G Am
If you can't filter the breath between the lies that you speak.
F G
Hear the back of the beetle
C C/B Am
As he breaks at your feet,
F G
Are you as sorry now as the tide
Am G F
When she came and washed out your streets,
G C C/B Am F C G
She washed them out clean.
C Am
There was a ghost there in that red house,
F G
He never burned out any lights,
C
He never slammed a door
Am F
Or crossed a creaky board among the floor,
G C C/B Am F C G
He just wanted for once to sleep at night.
C Am
One day he had to up and leave there,
F G
He couldn't take the drawn out fights.
C Am
He even caught the nasty thoughts never spoken,
F
But so spiritless and mean,
G C C/B Am F C E9
How they echoed among their lives.
Am G
So, if you see those so called demons,
F C E9
Don't bother saying I said hi.
Am G
I think they both know where to find me,
F C E9
I think I've stared at them both dead in their eyes.
Am G
I may just see them in some time now,
F C E9
Our crooked paths could easily cross,
Am G
Or wind forever in a lonelier direction
F
Because there ain't a lot of fight
Fm C C/B Am F C G
left in damaged souls like us.
F G
See, you can always find quiet
C C/B Am
But you can't really ever find peace,
F G Am
If you can't filter the breath between the lies that you speak.
F G
Hear the back of the beetle
C C/B Am
As he breaks at your feet,
F G
Are you as sorry now as the tide
Am G F
When she came and washed out your streets,
G C
Washed them out clean.
