Margery Dreams of Horses Tom: E
E In still water she lies down D Shaking in the press of sunlight A We roll into Lexington E She shakes off a drop of daylight
E
Water beating up her chest
D
Bleeding down between her knees
A
Rivers in Kentucky flow
E
Between the bluegrass wavy seas
D E
But oh, Margery
D A E
Twist the blade once more inside of me
E Breathless with anticipation D Baited breathers set their hooks A Tuck their heads beneith the high grass E Lie and wait beside the brooks
E For instance, pushing slowly through D Frustration leading back along A The allies of a childhood E That will not release us willingly
D E But oh, Margery D A E Sticks the knife in while I couldn't see
F#m E F#m E
E
So dust me off and shut me down
D
I'll dream of where I haven't been
A
Close the door inside my heart and
E
Stuff in the South Atlantic wind
E
I have hollow eyes
D
Haunting only to myself
D
Even so I can't stop calling
E
Great big hollows in myself
E
I took the train from California
D
To the far side of the continent
A
Woke up in Kentucky
E
Where a wedding was about to end
E
I looked up at Anna
D
She turned back to look at me
A
It's best to kill the ones that matter
E
Render blind the ones who see
D E
But oh, Margery
D A E
Takes the blade and walks away from me
D E
Oh, Margery
D A E
Love, like blood, is pouring out of me
D E
Oh, Margery
D A E
My heart wont stop bleeding over me
F#m E F#m E
D E
Oh, I can't shut it in
D A E
It's got far too many doors to block the wind
D E
Oh, I can't shut it in
D A E
It's got far too many doors to block the wind
D E
Oh, I can't shut it in
D A E
It's got far too many doors to block the wind

St Robinson In His Caddilac Dream Ton: G Intro: G D C
(D G C ) Staring out of his window as the world rushes by Arthur Robinson closes the glass and replies, "I dream of ballerinas and I don't know why? But I see Cadillac's sailing.
I was born on the shores of the Chesapeake Bay Maryland and Virginia have faded away And I keep thinking tomorrow is coming today So I am endlessly waiting
chorus: G D C
and the comet is coming between Me and the girl who could make it all clean Out there in the shadow of the modern machine walks St. Robinson in his Cadillac dream
verse D G C
Carrie's down in her basement all toe shoes and twinned With the girl in the mirror who spins when she spins, From where you think you will end up to the state that you’re in Your reflection approaches and recedes again. Yeah
chorus: G D C
And the comet is coming between Me and the girl who could make it all clean Out in the shadow of the modern machines Walks St. Robinson in his Cadillac dream
G D C
verse: D G C
I had a dream of a black car that shimmers and drives Down the length of the evening to the carnival’s side In a house where regret is a carousel ride We are spinning and spinning and spinning
There’s a hole in the ceiling down through which I fell There’s a girl in the basement coming out of her shell And there are people who will say they knew me so well I may not go to heaven.. I hope that you go to hell!
chorus G D C
The comet is coming between Me and the girl who could make it all clean out there in the shadow of a modern machine Walks St. Robinson in his Cadillac dream
outro G D C
In his dream St. Robinson in his dream. Some people are never quite what they seem Come on baby come on baby Lets just Get into my car and drive.
Mrs Potter's Lullaby Tom: G Intro: G G Cadd9 Dsus4
G
Well I woke up in mid-afternoon cause
Cadd9 Dsus4
that's when it all hurts the most
G
I dream I never know anyone
Cadd9 Dsus4
at the party and I'm always the host
Em7
If dreams are like movies,
Cadd9 G
then memories are films about ghosts
Dsus4
You can never escape,
Cadd9 G
you can only move south down the coast
G Dsus4 Cadd9 Dsus4 Hey, Mrs Potter, don't cry Hey, Mrs Potter I don't know why but Hey, Mrs Potter won't you talk to me (Mesmos Acordes dos Versos Anteriores)
Well there's a piece of Maria in every song that I sing And the price of a memory is the memory of th sorrow it brings And there is always one last light to turn out and one last bell to ring And the last one out of the circus has to lock up everything
Or the elephants will get out and forget to remember what you said And the ghosts of the tilt-a-whirl will ling inside of your head And the ferris whell junkies will spin their forever instead When I see you a blanket of stars covers me in my bed
Hey Mrs. Potter, don't go Hey Mrs. Potter I don't know but Hey Mrs. Potter won't you talk to me
All the blue light reflections that color my mind when I speak And the lovesick rejections that accompany the company I keep And all the razor perceptions that cut just a little too deep Hey I can bleed as well as anyone, but I need someone to help me sleep
So I throw my hand into the air and it swims in the beams It's just a brief interruption of the swirling dust sparkle jet streams Well I know I don't know you...and you're probably not what you seem But I'd sure like to find out so why don't you climb down off that movie screen
Hey Mrs. Potter, don't turn Hey Mrs. Potter, I burn for you Hey Mrs. Potter won't you talk to me
When the last king of Hollywood shatters his glass on the floor And orders another, well I wonder what he did that for... Then when I know that I have to get out 'cause I have been there before So I gave up my seat at the bar and I head for the door
We drove out to the desert just to lie down beneath this bowl of stars We stand u in the palace like it's the last of the great Pioneertown bars We shout out these songs against the clang of electric guitars You can see a million miles tonight But you can't get very far
Hey Mrs. Potter I won't touch and Hey Mrs. Potter, it's not much but Hey Mrs. Potter won't you talk to me

Raining in Baltimore Tom: Dm
Dm Bb C Am7
This circus is falling down on its knees
Dm F C Am7
The big top is crumbling down
Dm Bb C Am7
It's raining in Baltimore fifty miles east
Dm Bb C Am7
Where you should be, no one's around
Bb F
I need a phone call
Bb F
I need a raincoat
Bb F
I need a big love
Bb F
I need a phone call
These train conversations are passing me by And I don't have nothing to say You get what you pay for But I just had no intention of living this way
I need a phone call
I need a plane ride
I need a sunburn
I need a raincoat
C Bb
And I get no answers
C Bb
And I don't get no change
C Bb F
It's raining in Baltimore, baby
C F C
But everything else is the same
There's things I remember and things I forget I miss you I guess that I should Three thousand five hundred miles away But what would you change if you could?
I need a phone call Maybe I should buy a new car I can always hear a freight train If I listen real hard And I wish it was a small world Because I'm lonely for the big towns I'd like to hear a little guitar I think it's time to put the top down
I need a phone call I need a raincoat
Murder of One Tom: A Intro: |D |Dsus2 |G | Gmaj7| x2
A
Blue morning Blue morning
G
Wrapped in strands of fist and bone
A
Curiosity, Kitten,
G
Doesn't have to mean you're on your own
A
You can look outside your window
G
He doesn't have to know
A
We can talk awhile, baby
G
We can take it nice and slow
D Dsus2 G Gmaj7
All your life is such a shame, shame, shame
D Dsus2 G Gmaj7
All your love is just a dream, dream, dream
Are you happy when you're sleeping? Does he keep you safe and warm? Does he tell you when you're sorry? Does he tell you when you're wrong? I've been watching you for hours It's been years since we were born We were perfect when we started I've been wondering where we've gone
All your life is such a shame
All your love is just a dream
I dreamt I saw you walking up a hillside in the snow
Casting shadows on the winter sky as you stood there counting crows
A G/B
One for sorrow Two for joy, Three for girls and four for boys
A/C# G/D
Five for silver Six for gold and Seven for a secret never to be told
There's a bird that nests inside you
Sleeping underneath your skin
When you open up your wings to speak
I wish you'd let me in
All your life is such a shame All your love is just a dream Open up your eyes You can see the flames of your wasted life You should be ashamed You don't want to waste your life
D I walk along these hillsides In the summer 'neath the sunshine G I am feathered by the moonlight falling down on me
D G Change, change, change
NB This figure appears and is played constantly from 'I walk these hillsides' onwards.
