Becoming A Jackal

Am Am7/G D7/F# The most familiar room B Em Every implement was leading to you C G And your homely sense of dissaray Dm Never once the same C C/B Am Always rearranged Am Am7/G D7/F# But things would never change B Em In the seam between the window frame C G Where the jackals preyed on every soul Dm Where they tied you to a pole C C/B G And stripped you of your clothes G C Bm Bm/F# I was a dreamer Em C Bm Staring out windows G C Bm Bm/F# Out onto the main street Em C Bm Cause that's where the dream goes Am Am7/G D7/F# And each time they found fresh meat to chew B Em I would turn away and return to you C G You would offer me your unmade bed Dm C Feed me till I'm fed C/B Am And read me till I'm read Am7/G D7/F# But when the morning came B Em You would catch me at the window again C G In an eyes wide open sleeping state Dm C Staring into space C/B G With no look upon my face G C Bm Bm/F# I was a dreamer Em C Bm Staring out windows G C Bm Bm/F# Out onto the main street Em C Bm Cause that's where the dream goes C C/B Am And when I got older Am Am/G F When I grew bolder F G Out onto the streets I flew Am Am/B C Released from your shackles C G I danced with the Jackals F G And learned a new way to move Am Am7/G D7/F# So before you take this song as truth B Em You should wonder what I'm taking from you C G How I benefit from you being here Dm C Lending me your ears C/B G While I'm selling you my fears G C Bm I was a dreamer (I'm selling you my fears) Em C Bm Staring out windows (I'm selling you my fears) G C Bm Out onto the main street (I'm selling you my fears) Em C Bm Cause that's where the dream goes (I'm selling you...) G C Bm I was a dreamer Em C Bm Staring out windows G C Bm Out onto the main street Em C Bm Cause that's where the dream goes
