Capo 6th
 
 
[VERSE]
G                                 Em        D
Someway, baby, it's part of me, apart from me.
        Em             C
you're laying waste to Halloween
   G                                         Em             D
you fucked it friend, it's on it's head, it struck the street
       Em             C
you're in Milwaukee, off your feet
 
 
[CHORUS]
         C                                Em   D
and at once I knew I was not magnificent
C                                Em  D
strayed above the highway aisle
 C      Em        G           D
jagged vacance, thick with ice
                Em       C      D     G
I could see for miles, miles, miles
 
 
[VERSE]
G                           Em        D
3rd and Lake it burnt away, the hallway
     Em                 C
was where we learned to celebrate
G                                Em        D
automatic bought the years you’d talk for me
      Em                  C
that night you played me ʻLip Paradeʼ
G                               Em       D
not the needle, nor the thread, the lost decree
       Em              C
saying nothing, that’s enough for me
 
 
[CHORUS]
         C                                Em   D
and at once I knew I was not magnificent
C                                Em  D
Huddled far from the highway aisle
 C      Em        G           D
jagged vacance, thick with ice
                Em       C      D     G
I could see for miles, miles, miles
 
 
[VERSE]
G                                       Em        D
Christmas night, it clutched the light, the hallow bright
         Em             C
above my brother, I and tangled spines
G                                    Em        D
we smoked the screen to make it what it was to be
       Em             C
now to know it in my memory:
 
 
[CHORUS]
         C                                Em   D
and at once I knew I was not magnificent
C              Em      D
High above the highway aisle
 C      Em        G           D
jagged vacance, thick with ice
                Em       C      D     G
I could see for miles, miles, miles
