<< Back to Bright Eyes Song List
Version 1
            [Verse]
 C                         Gm
Forced convalescence and bed rest
        F
Staring contest
        Fm                C
With the ceiling and my feet
 C                   Gm
Was momentarily conscious
        F
Of the backflips
         Fm             Dm
I've been doing in my sleep
Dm                   G
I’m not afraid of the future
      Em7           Gm
Have to suffer and repeat
  C         F
I tend to agree
 Fm
What happens will be
 Em7     A7
Pain of my own making
  Dm          G     C
Cut short by eternity

C                     Gm
Now I've recovered completely
       F
Life is easy
       Fm                 C
Hula-hooping around the sun
  C                  Gm
The calendar's little boxes
      F
All these presents
      Fm            Dm
Get to open every one
    Dm               G
I’ll be prepared for the winter
   Em7
And the summer
     Gm
And beyond
     C            F
Just keep tagging along
    Fm
Until the feeling is gone
    Em7      A7
Amazed by the haystack
   Dm       G     C
Needle to oblivion

[Chorus]

C       Gm
In a daze
       F
In the doorway
         Fm              C
I stood crying for what was
C       Gm
In a trance
     F
In a taxi
           Fm                      Dm
Just keep driving please don't stop
Dm            Em              F
Out of the neighborhood, the multiverse
    G       Ab
Iron and rust

[Solo]
Ab Fm C Em
Ab Fm C G
Dm Em F G

[Verse]

C                           Gm
Went out of town for the weekend
     F
With my children
        Fm               C
Built sandcastles in the sun
 C                    Gm
Catastrophizing my birthday
        F
Turning forty
         Fm
Ending up like everyone
Dm                    G
There's no escaping the housework
    Em7
Or the bank clerk
       Gm
Or the priest
  C            F
They're waiting for me
   Fm
In my Egyptian sheets
  Em7           A7
The Seroquel's working
    Dm            G      C
It's fighting my fantasies

[Chorus]

C         Gm
In the dark
       F
At a distance
         Fm         C
I see everything at once
 C        Gm
Feel the wind
              F
Through the window
         Fm              Dm
And I'm overcome with love
 Dm         Em           F
Inter-dimensional, no obstacles
    G        Ab
Mountains and dust
