(Verse)
[A]A cold and [F]wet Nov[D]ember dawn[A]
[A]and there [F]are no bar[G]king spar[A]rows
[A]just [C]emptiness to dwell u[E]pon.
[A]I fell in[F]to a [D]winter slide[A]
[A]and ended [F]up the kind of [G]kid who goes down [A]chutes too narrow
[A]just [C]eking out my measly [E]pies.
(Chorus:)
But [D]I learned [A]fast how to[E] keep my [A]head up 'cause I
[D] know there [A]is this [C]side of [E]me that
[D] wants to [A]grab the [E]yoke from the [A]pilot and just
[D] fly the [A]whole mess in[C]to the [E]sea.
(Verses)
[A]Another [F]slow train [D]to the coast[A]
[A]some brand new [F]gory art from [G]way on [A]high
[A]I [C]sink and then I swim all [E]night.
[A]I watch the [F]ice melt [D]on the [A]glass
[A]while the [F]eloquent young [G]pilgrims pass[A]
[A]and [C]leave behind their trail
[G]imploring us not to [E]fail.
[D]Of [A]cou[E]rse[A] I raised to gather courage from those
[D]lof[A]ty [C]tal[E]es so tried and true and
[D]if [A]you[E]'re[A] able I'd suggest it 'cause this
[D]mod[A]ern[C] th[E]ought can get the best of you.
[F#m]This[A] rather simple epitaph
[D]can[E] sa[D]ve [E/Esus4]your hide your falling mind
[F#m]fate[A] isn't what we're up against
[D]the[E]re'[D]s n[E/Esus4]o design no flaws to find
[D]the[E]re'[D]s n[E/Esus4]o design no flaws to find.
(Chorus)
[D]But[A] I [E]lea[A]rned fast how to keep my head up 'cause I
[D]kno[A]w I[C] go[E]t this side of me that
[D]wan[A]ts [E]to [A]grab the yoke from the pilot and just
[D]fly[A] th[C]e w[E]hole mess into the sea.
