Sleeping Lessons Lyrics

The Shins
Wincing The Night Away
Official release by Sub Pop Records on January 23, 2007.
The album's out there ... this is the first track.
The pattern is played with some strange delay. The actual guitar strum comes in at
the chorus and the whole band kicks in after the second verse at about 2 minutes and a half in.
pattern for chords:
Go without 'til the need seeps in
you're low anymore; collect your novel petals for the stem
and glow, glow; melt and flow
eviserate your fragile frame
spilled it all in ragged form; a thousand different versions of yourself
and if the old gaurd still offend; you got nothing left on which you depend
so enlist ounce of your bright blood and off with their heads
Jump from the book; you're not obliged to swallow anything you despise
See those unrepenting buzzards want your life
when they got no right; as sure as you have eyes
they got no right
Just put yourself in my new shoes; and see that I do what I do
because the old gods still offend; we got nothing left on which we depend
so we waste every ounce of your bright blood and off with their heads
Jump from the book; you're not obliged to swallow anything you despise
Plays out like this:
