Great Lake Swimmers Moving Pictures, Silent Films Lyrics

I'm pretty sure all the words are right, I had to just listen and repeat what I thought
heard. Let me know if any chords or lyrics need changing and enjoy!
Oh wake me please when this is over
Oh when the ice is now dead awake
and the hunger it took
and it turns out i will be
the same but older
and maybe twice the man that i thought i was
Where have you been?
And what have you done?
I've been under the ground
Reading prayers from this old book I found
Under the ground
Saving it up
And spending it all
On moving pictures
(finger-picking)
silent films
moving pictures
silent films
oh is this the dream i've been saving
oh where the heart beats slower and slower
to almost nothing
almost nothing
almost nothing
i took it for love,
or at least something beautiful
out there in the sunlight i turned around suddenly
turned around squinting
and saw there in the daylight
and in the truth
the truth was unbearable
oh and dimmer than
bearing down on these two shadow animals
caught painting a dotted line
caught painting a dotted line
caught painting a dotted line
Where have you been?
And what have you done?
I've been under the ground
Reading prayers from this old book I found
Under the ground
Saving it up
And spending it all
On moving pictures
silent films
moving pictures
silent films
(finger picking)x2
