C
When gravity's a palm pushing down on your head
F G
Like the devil's got a paw dug in your shoulder
C F G
And the other one is rubbing your back
C
But the kitchen in this new place has a window
F G
Yeah, you can grow basil on the sill
C F D
Maybe you can call your neighbors by name now
C
Berries on the dash is the sweetest kind of living
F G
Still, this feels like eating the meat of the mountain
C
It's all grit and gristle, I can't chew and swallow
F G
I'm gnawing my way back home
C
The clouds look a lot like wool gone through the wash
F G
I check my phone for the time but I still wear my watch
C F G
I'm confused about how I'm supposed to connect to anything now

C
The kind of high I like is when I barely make the train
F G
And the people with a seat smile big at me
C
Because they know the feeling
F G
And for a millisecond
C
We share a look like a family does
F G
Like we have inside jokes, like we could call each other
C F G
By little nicknames
C
And I could tell the story of how my great
F G
Grandmother's sister was deemed a saint
C
How they exhumed her body after years of being buried
F G
And they found she hadn't even begun to sully
C
So they moved her again
F G
Straight into the Vatican
C F G
C F D
C
I think of all the billions of eyes
F G
All looking at something different at the same time
C F D
And I feel nauseous
C F G
Some days I can only see into my suitcase
C
It's got everything I need plus some superstitious
F G
Things I may also need
C
"Music soothes the savage beast"
F G
the pilot says to me and he asks me to sing
C F G
But now is not the time
C
I just want to fall into a pile of warm laundry
F G C F G
I just want to keep very very quiet, yeah
C F G
C F D
C F G (x2)
C F D
It's June where you sleep, July where I land
C F G
Thought I saw you on a platform in Amsterdam
C
And I nearly missed my train
F G
And I felt so defeated til I jumped on to
C F G
See all the warm smiles were for me
C
I made my train and it made me so happy
F G
I made my train and it made me forget everything
C
It made me forget, made me forget
F G
Made me forget, it made me forget everything
C
It made me forget, made me forget
F G C
Made me forget, made me forget everything
