F             C7                        F
Sometimes the windows combine with the seams
     F7
in a way
C#                  Gm7-5
That twitches on a peak at the place where
     A7sus4
the spirit was slain
Dm        C#
One foot leads to another
 F                       Fmaj7
Night's for sleep, blue curtains, covers
D#                 D#m
Sequins in the eyes
A#
That's a fine time to dine
Fdim
Divine who's circling, feeding the cards
        F
to the midwives
 C7                   F
Who love those alien days
     C7            F
The nonstop alien days
 C7            F
Mmm the alien days

Must've skipped the ship and joined
the team for a ride
A couple hours to learn the controls
and commandeer both my eyes
Hey! Be quick dear, times are uncertain,
one month crawling, next year blurring
Decades in the drain, monograms on the brain
Decide what's working and what's
moved on to the last phase
The floodgate alien days
I love those alien days
Mmm...the alien days

F#                  G#                  C#
When the peels are down it feels like traveling
in style
F#              G#             A#
You don't need wings to hover forty ton stones
for a mile
    D#m
And in the summer, virgin visions
D#6
Mindless humming numbers can't
F#            G#                 Dm7-5
decide if the day's supposed to smile

Today, find infinite ways it could be plenty worse
It's a blessing but it's also a curse
Those days taught me everything I know
How to catch a feeling and when to let it go
How all the scheming, soulless creatures
Can't find dreamer's honey in the hive
If it's right beneath the nose

And when the light is new,
the sky shows trembling cartoons
You don't need smoke to cover most of
the world in a gloom
But here comes racer number 7
Watch my fingers ripping out the lines
If it looks like we could lose

If it looks like we could lose
If it looks like we could lose
If it looks like we could lose
