[Intro]
G# B E C#7 B G# C#m

[Verse 1]
G# B
No one knows you quite the way that I do
E C#7
No one owes me, not especially you
B G#
So find a river and deliver my remains to it soon
C#m
This I request of you

[Verse 2]
G# B
Said a person that I knew from my sleep
E C#7
"Savage, I'm free, but I ain't cheap"
B G#
The thing you ache with has a function, either beat it or bleed
C#m
What could I say to them

[Verse 3]
G# B
Man on fire, and he's heading for Throop
E C#7
Watched him burning as I sat on my stoop
B G#
A couple seconds felt like hours 'til I finally moved
C#m
To beat the flames from him

[Verse 4]
G# B
Most religion is as far from faith
E C#7
As the sun is from the shadows it shapes
B G#
Well I can hardly say for certain if I'm trapped or escaped
C#m
When I'm away from you

[Verse 5]
G# B
When the summer draws the bugs in the house
E C#7
And an acquaintance takes the form of a spouse
B G#
I need you wildly, as the bluejay needs a tune it can sing
C#m
Into the afternoon

[Instrumental]
G# B F# E
G# B Eb C#
G# B F# E
G# B Eb C#
G#

[Interlude]
D A
Like my mother she reminds
D A
With the ashes on her head
E D A
Dancing drunkly to the radio as she welcomes back the dead

G# B E C#7 B G# C#m

[Verse 6]
G# B
Twenty hours and I'm twelve in the hole
E C#7
With thoughts of lightning as a beautiful doll
B G#
Across the island they are floating slow in luminous bulbs
C#m
Inviting me to cross

[Verse 7]
G# B
Started drinking to meet strangers and folks
E C#7
Who'd listen to me, who'd nod when I spoke
B G#
But these days when I'm thirsty I don't mind staying home
C#m
Drinking away the blues

[Verse 8]
G# B
Started smoking to keep up with my friends
E C#7
I learned to love the feeling when I'm breathing it in
B G#
But I'm a lonely lighthouse shining by the sea on a cliff
C#m
Dragging in solitude

[Instrumental]
G# B F# E
G# B Eb C#
G# B F# E
G# B Eb C#
D A D A
E D A

E D A
E D A
E D A

[Outro]
D A
Of all the pieces I've combined
D A
Still the cruelest mixture yet
E D
Is the softness of a thawing dawn
A
And the hardness of regret
