Em
Listen to the sounds of ringing out around you
Bm
these are the cries of a dying breed
Em
Politics of hate you'd never get around to 
Bm
blood over brains that we never need
Em
I saw you in the back, studied and relaxed 
Bm
fixed in the post like a silent stone 
Em
Serenity and tact, it's the feeling that I lack 
Bm
Life in the floors of a stable home 
 
        G                          D
I can trace you on paper like a sketch of a smell 
           G                        D
You're a breath to the runner in contest 
     G                          F#          Bm
In close to the nerve, but you rest so far away
                G           A
and I have to give it up someday 
 
D                      A                  G
Every time I close my eyes I see you in front of me
F#m              Em         D
Pretending in a love like this 
             A                      Em
I have no choice but to put you in back of me
        G          A
Don't cover my footsteps
Bm                                       G
Dead weight all right, I know you're no good for me 
Bm                                          G
Dead weight all right, I know you're no righteous leader 
D                        A                              Em
You're dead weight-all right, that's fine-but get your hands off me 
                           G
You have to touch me with kid gloves 
                          Bm
You have to touch me with kid gloves

Bm
Body to the wind, you talk me out of standstill 
Em
I never felt so alive at once 
Bm
Finger to the quick, yes I can feel your hand still 
Em
pressed to the drain of the coming months 
 
         Em
Cheer me up, cheer me, up I'm a miserable f**k
         C
Cheer me up, cheer me, up I'm a tireless bore 
         G                       F                   Em
Cheer me up, cheer me up, I'm invisibly stuck all in myself 
 
Yes I’m a vanity whore
 
              G                            D
Because it's race and it's power at the center of life, 
        G                      D
we’re blind to the people who need us, 
      G                                     F#           Bm
but you're the kind of person who could understand that fault 
                 G           A
and I hope to measure you someday.
 
D                      A                  G
Every time I close my eyes I see you in front of me

When you compromise yourself like that 
           A
It's a dedication
               Bm
So even on friendship
