Capo 5th fret
Standard (EADGBE)
Intro
x2
Verse 1
There goes that old postman
Riding on his bike
He's got a bag full of phone bills
And nothing to justify
Chorus 1
I'm as naked as a winter tree
[G/f#]
With promises remote
[G/f#]
Wish I could fly away above the ashen shade
Observe the world below
x 2
Verse 2
same as the first)
Once I had a calling
This town praised my hands
Now I'm sculpting apologies
Cause folks they don't understand
Chorus 2
same as the first chorus except the last chord does not resolve to a G,
rather it pulls to Em to start the bridge, so the last line should be as follows:)
Observe the world below
Bridge
I could change myself
There's so much else I could do
Except I always knew
[G/f#]
I was deeper than dailyness
I was made to be manifest
>
The art like an amethyst of truth
Verse 3
same as 1&2)
I know, it's only too clear
Spiders spin their webs year after year
I never had that kind of resolve
To know my fear, to face it at all
Chorus 3
I'm as naked as a winter tree
[G/f#]
With promises remote
[G/f#]
Wish I could fly away above the ashen shade
Observe the world below yeah yeah
Observe the world below
