Tachycardia

C C C C Em It's a mass grave Dm C A dollar-fifty resting place C Em On the north face Dm G there's a rope I've gotta climb Am G I'm a stone's throw F Em from everyone I love and know Am Em But I can't show F G up looking like I do C Em In an old suit Dm C my hair is slicked up back nice and smooth C Em In a court room, Dm G sweat rolling down my back Am G It's a bad dream F Em I have it seven times a week Am Em No it was not me F G C But I'm the one who has to die Harmonica C Em Dm C C Em Dm G C Em Needs a cold draw Dm C to slow his tachycardia C Em In a dark bar Dm G this world just melts away Am G And he feels fine F Em If he could just lose track of time Am Em It's a good sign F G when he can't stay awake C Em On a slow day Dm C the rain against the windowpane C Em of the cafe Dm G She spills the coffee grounds Am G And the same thought F Em hits her like a cinder block Am Em Life's an odd job F G C that she don't got the nerve to quit Harmonia C Em Dm C C Em Dm G Am G F G C Em Yeah it's just there Dm C At the bottom of those spiral stairs C Em It's the world's fair Dm G The future's on display Am G In the dark night F Em They turned on the electric lights Am Em And the crowd cried out F G C Everyone looked so amazed C F C G Am G F Em Dm C
