without hearing any words.

They chased me in the sunshine,
F

and they chased me in the dark
F

They almost overtook me,
and the leaves colored my mane
Dm

Without holding out for mercy,

I have risen in the rain

C
Don't ask Alice, she won't know
but a passing glimpse of regrets
No one to notice in the story,
but it's time to place your bets
I've been learning, adapting,
evolving,
and replacing wrong and right
With my arms too short to box with God,
I walk into the light
The corrosive thread that
runs through my life
won't trip me and won't tie me tight
My arms too short to box with God,
G

your Jack of Fandango,
those black hills make me ponder.
In the distant sound of roaming thunder,
it's the way you crack those heels
that pulls me under.
The way you move is like a
bolt of greased lightning,
F

I find it both fascinating and frightening.
I'll give you the facts,
it was a straw that broke the camel's back.
I walk down to Wonderland,
I keep wondering how I'm
F

gonna make a stand.

she won't know.
I can taste it on the back of my throat,
tip of my tongue.
The haze of ether from the trees
drips up the canyon.
Cold sweats alone and promises made
Beast of a man,
see the mark on my hand
Meanwhile the gray light
takes all the color away
And once again down in Wonderland
I have strayed

Dm

Like whispers in my ear
and just like smoke they disappear
Pamela and Jim love their street
Gsus4
G
Somebody always tried
to keep the beats
They were looking for magic
but Houdini beat feet
I've been holding out for a chance
that I can't explain
A time to change
I've hit the bottom on the
left side of elsewhere
At the door to stranger than progress
It's a trail to nowhere,
and hell, that won't make me a man.
