Wipe the Clock Lyrics

WIPE THE CLOCK
(Jay Farrar)
INTRO: HARMONICA SOLO
(same chords as a verse)
VERSE 1:
Hunted down
Someone said no story, no gain
Wipe the clock right now
I despise what you crave
VERSE 2:
I remember you
When you wore a different face
Never heard a story of anyone
Who drove the black town insane
VERSE 3:
Leaning on a stoplight
Waiting for eventual change
Once it mattered right now
It's not so easy to gauge
VERSE 4:
Every time
That you ask for more
It's the sound that makes the colors go blind
(no words on last line of this verse)
CHORUS:
And everything comes in threes
But your face shows two
Lost in the watershed
Way out of tune
HARMONICA SOLO
(same chords as a verse)
VERSE:
Ain't it hard
When the spirit doesn't catch you
Gravity's the winner, And it weighs you down
It weighs you down
HARMONICA SOLO
(same chords as a verse; end on D)
