Intro 1

It's

Verse 1
D 
quiet
and green in my living room, so steamy
A 
Held in a captive swirl in the cocktail hour,
D 
I'm dreaming
What man would know,
what man could tell, that I'm dreaming?
A 
I see nothing fine at the end of the line,
D 
am I dreaming?
Bm 
Em 
Fingers to the bone for the sake of the home,
Gm 
Edim 
D 
but the wind blows it all away
Bm 
Em 
Beauty  in shrouds like fast -moving clouds
Gm 
Edim 
D 
I live my time in a theater of beauty
So I relax and unwind and I
spend my time so easy
A 
Leave my old, ragged home to spin all alone,
D 
it's easy
A 
D 
Mix another one to go with the other one
A 
D 
Drop another one to go with the other one
Bm 
Em 
Fingers to the board for the sake
of the whole other way
Gm 
Edim 
D 
Glows it all away
Bm 
Beauty in shreds
Em 
Like fast -moving clouds
Gm 
I live my time
