Impermanent Record
David Bazan
 
Verse 1
Bm         A                G
  I was trembling with gooseflesh
Bm               A                G
  First time I prayed to speak in tongues
Bm              A     G                  Em
  I saw it coming       and I tried to run
    Bm             A           G
But now I make it up as I go along
Bm         A                   G
  Do I drive around   with my high beams on
Bm         A               G
  Do I ever watch the road
Bm               A         G                Em
  I store my thoughts in other people's heads
Bm         A                G
Then I question what they know
 
Chorus
Bm        A              G
   The rain falls on the  animals
Bm       A              G
   The wind blows up   the dirt
Bm               A            G           Em
   I Climb the rock  make a home in the cleft
Bm              A              G
   And keep a record of the earth
 
Bridge
F#m                      G
   On a crowded city sidewalk
F#m                         G
   Or in the wilderness alone
F#m                       G
   The crowd of witnesses   hover above you
        Bm         A              G
Like a              a pillar of smoke
Bm             A               G
     Singing stories  whispering  jokes
 
Chorus 2
Bm         A                G
   So The rain falls on the  animals
Bm         A                G
   The wind blows up the dirt
Bm              A              G               Em
   I Climb the rock  I make a home in the cleft
Bm                A              G
   And I Keep a record of the earth
Bm            A        G
   I keep a record of     the earth
Bm                  A                 G   Em
   And I write it down for what it's worth
G       Em           Bm
For what    it's worth
