Sorrow

 
              
Bb 
    Face me now, my lover  
Hang a light switch higher, flip the light  
Won't you burn some joy I threw  
Upon the street and drove right through  
 
    Ab             Eb             Bb 
The crazies all in line to battle sorrow 
 
Ab             Eb                  Bb  
Now the way to live, can't wake up sorrow  
 
C#          Cm            Bb 
Who is that crying on the road now?  
 
C#          Cm                Bb 
Who is that ghost singing our songs?  
 
Bb 
  Weakest hand fell from my grip  
The shapeless ways your fist can move  
I feel like I could fill this room  
With broken records and dead balloons  
 
 
           Ab              Eb             Bb 
And it's a happy birthday, say so long to sorrow 
 
Ab                 Eb              Bb 
Beggar shoes can't find the way to sorrow 
 
C#          Cm             Bb  
Who is that burning on the sun? 
 
C#      Cm                    Bb  
All the trash that filled our rooms  
 
Bb 
   Fade as light from angled roofs  
The lunatics are aching too  
The cold dust smell, the dusk is dim  
Midnight lungs of promises  
 
         Ab      Eb                  Bb 
The fire hydrant blasts the shell of sorrow  
 
Ab              Eb                  Bb 
Rescue missions dig up the bones of sorrow  
 
C#          Cm            Bb 
Who is that crying in the shadow?  
 
C#          Cm                Bb 
Who is that ghost singing our songs?
