My Favourite Chords
The Weakerthans They're tearing up streets again they're building a new hotel The mayor's out killing kids to keep taxes down And me and my anger sit folding a paper bird Letting the curtains turn to beating wings
Wish I had a socket-set to dismantle this morning Just one pair of clean socks and a photo of you When you get off work tonight meet me at the construction site And we'll write some notes to tape to the heavy machines
Like we hope they treat you well, hope you don't work too hard We hope you get to be happy sometimes And bring your swiss-army knife and a bottle of something And I'll bring some spray paint and a new deck of cards
Hey, I found the safest place to keep all our tenderness Keep all those bad ideas, keep all our hope It's here in the smallest bones, the feet and the inner ear Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com It's such an enormous thing to walk, to listen
And I'd like to fall asleep to the beat of you breathing In a room near a truck stop, on a highway somewhere You are a radio, you are an open door I am a faulty string of blue Christmas lights
You swim through frequencies You let that stranger in, as I'm blinking off and on and off again We've got a lot of time Or maybe we don't but I'd like to think so, so let me pretend
These are my favorite chords I know you like them too When I get a new guitar, you could have this one And sing me a lullaby, sing me the alphabet Sing me a story I haven't heard yet
