[Intro]
C

[Verse 1]
C E
Milemarker twenty-seven says we're on the way to Heaven
Am C
And I smile at the passenger seat
F
Forty miles from Chicago
F
There is snow on the windshield
F F
And you're downtown dragging your feet

C B
Now I'm circling the block around Union Central Station
Am A#
And there are bullets flying into the car
F F
It's the same as it's always been
G# G#
It's the same as it's always been

Dm
Two-hundred miles from Chicago:
Dm
There is blood on the windshield
G G
And I am reeling as you gather your things
F
I said I don't know what to do anymore
F
As if I knew what to do before
E G#
I can fuck up almost anything


[Chorus]
C Em
I don't think that I would exactly call it love
F
But it's dripping down my consciousness
G#
Missus, you're slipping down my lungs


[Verse 2]
C B
I want to build you a protest out of sticks and rocks
A A#
I find in the backyard behind the house you grew up in
F G#
In loving memory of all our nonconformity
C B
I want to sing you a signal that reaches only the ears
A A#
Of young disenfranchised straight white boys
F G#
Because that would feel normal, and none of this does


[Chorus]
C Em
I don't think that I would exactly call it love
F
But it's dripping down my consciousness
G#
As you're slipping down my lungs

C Em F G#
So save it for a rainy day and maybe then you'll see
C Em F G#
That I am like the earth, old man, there's no way around me


[Verse 3]
C G
But even in my dreams
F F
I still don't know the difference between
C G F F
What it is I want and what it is I need
C
I wanna see you be brave
G F F
I wanna see you surviving
C
I wanna see both of us
G F F
Prospering and thriving separately

C G
I want the catharsis of knowing
Dm F
Something bad's about to happen
C C Dm B
But also knowing that I can't do anything about it
C E
Because your new house just don't shut
A# F
Quite like the one you grew up in used to
C Em
I wanna come and visit
A# F
I wanna see this through, but
C G Dm F
I never will because you're just not what I need
C G
And I am just not what you want
Dm F
Though you're in everyone I meet and

C G Dm F
We'll say fuck the banks but we'll still use them every day
C G
And when we fight amongst ourselves
Dm F
The banks will say Okay
C G Dm F
Have you been spending all your capital on causes you deem just?
C G Dm F
You keep doing what you can, we'll keep doing what we must.
C G
So despite what you have learned
Dm F
In songs for which you'd take a bullet
C G
You won't find objective truth
Dm F
In a final rhyming couplet

A couplet, a couplet, a couplet...
