*Perishable Goods* (capoed on 5th fret)
Intro:
Verse:
She's a give and could be a gift
Down the shaft and something's ripped away, we got wise long ago
What she's taken has long been spent
Speak your lines under the influence, fade into the dream
Chorus:
us2
My coat pocket dreams and fears
Drag them out across the table here
Trust the signs exactly as they lay
us2
Here we kneel, kiss the sky
Lose yourself inside the question "why?"
God's eye...holds you in its gaze
intro pattern again
Verse:
The unjust judge has summoned up
The prisoner for more extensive questioning
The courtroom of shame is full
Regardless of the missing persons
Their whereabouts and God you hope they show up
A moment here too soon
Chorus:
Verse:
If they want your story, well
Those who are familiar can contend be that far behind
A bartender, a partial block
Around the heart and loneliness
A car that's empty and always overfull
Chorus:
