Verse 1
E
A
Sometimes when the wheels slow down,
B
Bm
D
I wonder where I've been
E
A
They say it's a real cool town,
B
D
but I don't know what they mean
A
E
A
She stood by the station sign
B
D
and she faded out of sight
A
E
F#m
Let's drink to a better time
Bm
B
Bm
E
All at once
A
D
Bm
The garbage in the river
A
D
E
Drifting past my eyes
A
D
Bm
The shits I used to give her,
A
D
E
the pretty plastic lies
A
D
Bm
Floating on the water,
A
D
E
which somehow seemed to rise
A
D
Bm
A
Above her father's daughter
E
A
I tried to avoid her gaze
B
D
where the guilty ones were named
E
A
I thought of a thousand ways
B
Bm
D
to reallocate the blame
E
A
I laughed and I played it dumb
Bm
B
D
and I prayed for common sense
E
F#m
But I know when the time will come
Bm
E
All at once,
A
D
the garbage hit the river
Bm
A
D
E
Drifting past my eyes
A
D
Bm
The shit I used to give her
A
D
E
The pretty plastic lies
A
D
Bm
They were floating on the water
A
D
E
And somehow seemed to rise
A
D
Bm
A
The love of all is lost in the rain
G
D
She asked for a simple life
Em
A
and a hand to put her head in
G
D
She wound up with a ruby cube
Em
A
and a lack of understanding
G
D
E
Now she's crashing on the landing

Verse 2
E
A
Maybe when I split the scene
Bm
D
I mislaid my lucky charm
E
A
Maybe this is all a dream
Bm
D
and I'll wake up in her arms
E
A
Maybe when the new day dawns
Bm
D
it'll all be gone away
E
F#m
G
Maybe I will be reborn on a sunny day
Bm

All at once

Garbage in the river

The pretty plastic lights
A

Bm
Floating on the water
A
D
E
Which somehow seem to rise
A
D
Bm
But the father's not dead
