Still Life

E A C#m B E A I was tryin' to find someone to love me C#m Then I did and she was dancin' B Across the room with the lights on her half-closed eyes C#m B A So then I took another drink and stumbled C#m Across to her and said somethin' ridiculous B Like a man who'd refuse to shine E A C#m B E See I was looking for a still life A Now it is stillborn C#m In the endless glow, on a river of road B I drove out of the eye of the storm E A I was trying to write a song so articulate C#m It could right my wrongs but I wrote it wrong B This is not it, it's just a field day for a therapist C#m (And what did you dream?) A That I wrote a song B (And what did it mean?) A That I got it wrong, I don't know N.C. I don't know E A C#m B E See I was looking for a still life A Now it is stillborn C#m In the endless glow, on a river of road B I drove out of the eye of the storm C#m B A Did I know it then? Did I cry out then? A B By the blooming tree in Switzerland? No I never really know B No I never really know A What I can do about it C#m B If I lie down on the dirty ground A A Would you hear the angels sing? B A Ooh-Oooh Ooooh Chorus 2x E See I was looking for a still life A Now it is stillborn C#m In the endless glow, on a river of road B I drove out of the eye of the storm C#m B A B E A E A C#m B
