Which World Is Ours? chords by Mark Olson
Verse 1
Am
Smelled the carnal smoke from
the edge of the wood
F
Winds had shifted again,
G
it's time they shifted for good
Am
The en campment went up in
the late of last week
F
Clowns and confidence men,
G
Am
G
now they bathe in the creek
Am
Mother said you worked there,
work night shift at the mess
F
Waited for you to come by the house,
G
Am
G
couldn't be bothered I guess
Am
So I went down to the tents,
to expose where you hid
F
To see if you'd recognize me,
Am
F
G
what you'd say if you did
F
Well I've been simple,
Am
F
G
and I've been blind
Defending your lost causes
Am
F
G
every time
Am
Well I knew you'd look old,
but shit not that old
F
Looked like you'd wrestled with trouble,
G
Am
G
had you in its chokehold
Am
First you didn't see me,
I laid back in the crowd
F
Then I squeezed your shoulder,
G
C
G
and you jerked around
Am
Your expression was lit,
said what had never been said
F
It said the weight will grow down,
G
to those that summon the dead
Am
Said you can't choose your battles,
they'll choose you for themselves
F
Said, waste not and die trying,
G
man can't chase where he fell
F
Well, I've been simple and
G
I've been blind
Defending your lost causes
Am
G
Am
every time
G
F
You can't see it in the air,
Am
but you know when it holds you
G
F
You can't see it in the air,
Am
but you feel when it holds you
F
Our prick for love leads
us to foggy bottom
Am
A chore that don't quit,
vapor gun on it
G
You can't see it in the air,
F
Am
but you know that it's there
They rolled up all the tents
And the trucks drove from town
F
The clearance stood still
G
White dust covered the ground
Am
You'd only manage some words,
but I've proven them true
F
It's not where things come from,
G
it's where you've taken them to
Am
Smell the carnival smoke
Which World Is Ours?
