E
red bird is dreaming
A
the bottom of the sea
E
1819
B
taking no passengers
A
meets the fishes
E
and his new neighbors
B
off the coast
A
of virginia
E B
are the shipwrecks and the treasures
A E
of spain, of spain
i swallowed these tears
like a thousand other times
can't hear the thunder
of the train roll by
give me a sign
i've been haunting this corner
for too many years
the sidewalk crawls
the gutters streak
washes the day, the day, away
E B
where where do you go
A E
got your sight to the window
B
into the palms
A
maybe the palms
E
can break your fall
i climb up these stairs
like a thousand other times
can't hear the traffic
or the war outside
quater to 5
been writing this letter
for too many years
the trumpet sounds
the devil speaks
oh virginia
here's to believing
to virginia
where where do you go
got your sight to the window
into the palms
maybe the palms
can break your fall
where where do you go
got your sight to the window
into the palms
maybe the palms
can break your fall
