Intro (Eef uses many hammer-ons on the D and A string, its easiest to listen because
they change throughout the song)
When it finally collapsed all you heard was the radio st atic
And the fluttering sound of a bird that was trapped in the a ttic
But you couldn't be sure that it wasn't just all in y our head
As you carefully swept all the broken glass out of your bed
When it finally collapsed all the actors were hotly prot ested
But the people they had to portray, were a little depres sing
So a grass roots initiative based upon sharing and tr ust
Went into production to harness the power of d ust

Of the idea that we are comprised of just water and a ir
And a vandal had written that Jesus knows just how you f eel
When you're falling asleep, asleep at the wh eel
When you're falling asleep, asleep at the wh eel
