#
#E (w RIFF)
#I used to walk around with my eyes on fire
#My nerves real close to my skin
#Had a fist full of questions and a brand on my cheek
#We would skate where the ice got thin
#
#CHORUS #1:
And the smoke blowin' down from a cabin on the hill
And smoke blowin' down in the street
Some kind of sweet smelling mystical backdrop
To the story unfolding at my feet
Now there's an edge to the twister I throw back in the air
There's an edge to the twist of the knife
There's a hard heart of darkness hovering there
Just around the corner from life
CHORUS #2:
And I, I have no answers
I got no patented path to set you free
Besides, I wouldn't know where you wanted to go
And it's probably not the same place as me
Now there's a thousand roads up this mountain
You can get lost in a minute if you try
And it's probably enough that I was just laughing today
And looking this close in your eye
CHORUS #3:
I said there's a thousand roads up this mountain, yeah
You can get lost in a minute if you try
It's probably enough that I was just laughing today
Looking this close in your eye
In your eye
In your eye
