[Verse]
Riff Em7/B F* F#* G5 G
And now a road connects the cul-de-sac
G5 F#5 F5
To the adjacent development
Riff Em7/B F* F#* G5 G
But there used to be trees stretching back
G5 F#5 F5
And there was no way through
Riff Em7/B F* F#* G5 G
And I was thankful for the mystery
G5 F#5 F5
But by the time that girl had hanged herself
Riff Em7/B F* F#* G5 G
I could have looked out my back window
G5 F#5 F
And watched her neck just snap
[Chorus]
C5 C C5
Baseball field lights that shine
G5 G G5
Over the shedding pine
F5 F F5
Each bulb's a blinding sphere
F F5
In the secular nation
C5 C C5
Unhurried sirens moan
G5 G G5
Pitches that glaze my eyes
Am Am/G# Am/G D9/F# F ~
She's just a pale fleshy typewriter-light advertisement for a wind chime that emits rays
F#dim ~ F ~
which resonate in the polluted sky
[Solo]

C5 C C5
All entrances to the
G5 G G5
Merritt blocked off I mean
F5 F
I'd love to believe that death's
F5 F
Just the beginning as the
C5 C C5
Shutters fly open and the
G5 G G5
Breeze gives me pause
Am Am/G# Am/G D9/F#
I know what's out there
F ~ F#dim ~ F ~
morning phone calls silence and resentment and craters a new moon built in a line
