G-----------------Bm----------C
sometimes the world sings hard like concrete
G-------------Bm
It ain’t easy to listen when you’re
C
staring at your feet
G-------------Bm-------------C
Like old Tom Waits after a long night of revelry
------------Em-------------C-----D
Dustbowl overtures and gravel pit
--------G
harmony
Sometimes the world sings sweet and slow
Like a full-bellied bumblebee buzzing a secret you’ll never know
And it’s hard to wait for a freightliner full of bliss
But you can stay all night in a patient goodbye kiss
Chorus
---------------------Em-------C---
And the worlds whistle of a bullet
D-----G
going by
-------Em------------------C-----D
It’s a New York minute, New Mexico
G
sky
------------------------Em-------
It’s the thing you didn’t get to,
and what you’ve done for far too long
---------A7
It’s the volume of an image, it’s the
D7
vision in a song
Sometimes the world sings soft like a feather bed
Like a moonlit melody contra-dancing in your head
And you’ve got to stare into her eyes, swinging around and around
Or you may get dizzy, you might fall right on down
Repeat chorus
Tabbed by Matthoff
