(Verse)
EmDCAm
I set it all on fire, it burned away in the night
EmDAmC
Watching with eyes so tired, the orange and the blue arise
AmDCD
Then I sped off on a motorcycle, like everything you dreamed
AmDCD
I'll create a universe that you can barely see
(Chorus)
EmBmC
Inside or outside corner in the night
DEm
The coroner hides underneath the stairway
BmC
Where the birds spin sticks in the corridors
DEm
Don't tell the others
BmC
The cider house side corner in the night
DEm
It's poison, they are boarding up the windows
Bm
One down and they know it's going to slip
CDEm
So don't tell the others
(Bridge)
BmCDEmBm
Above my head, they'll fly
CDEmBm
With their lives that are more than mine,
CDEmBm
Reach out my hands to light,
CD
And feel life that is more
(Verse)
EmDCAm
I built a wooden backdrop, I made it look awfully real
EmDAmC
I set it up in the woodshop and lit it electric teal
AmDCD
Then coughed up just a little blood; it splashed into my hand
AmDCD
Please run and get father now, 'cause I'm thinking this is bad...
(Chorus)
EmBmC
Inside or outside corner in the night
DEm
The coroner hides underneath the stairway
BmC
Where the birds spin sticks in the corridors
DEm
Don't tell the others
BmC
The cider house side corner in the night
DEm
It's poison, they are boarding up the windows
Bm
One down and it's you that's gonna to slip
CDEm
So don't tell the others
