F#m                     A   E
You got a gangly glover
F#m                     A   E
but you can breathe now
F#m                           A   E
it's just the mouth of mother
F#m
that's so extreme now

A          G#m         A
play for a time to parasites
A       C#m            F#m      G
violent calm by covers night  I know

A      Bm        G           A
the situation is kissing the ground
A      Bm            G          A
the situation is you take lying down
A      Bm        G            A
the situation is passing like rain
A      Bm        G       A
the situation externally flamed

|A E |
F#m                         A   E
without the rearview mirror
F#m                 A   E
you never see clear
F#m                            A   E
with all the tightrope talkers
F#m
you stay in high gear

A           G#m         A
play for a  time to parasites
A       C#m            F#m      G
violent calm by covers night  I know

A      Bm          G          A
the situation will soften the blow
A      Bm        G          A
the situation is whether or no
A      Bm        G          A
the situation is never that clear
A      Bm          G        C#m
the situation will soon disappear
