You Are My Face Lyrics
by Wilco
Intro: D
I remember my mother's sister's husband's brother
Em (5th string bar chord)
Working in the goldmine full-time filling in for sunshine
Filing into tight lines of ordinary beehives
The door screams I hate you hate you hanging around my blue jeans
Why is there no breeze no currency of leaves
No current through the water wire no feelings I can see
I trust no emotion. I believe in locomotion.
But I've turned to rust as we've discussed
Though I must have let you down too many times
In the dirt and the dust
A#m - Bm (two hard down strokes - 6th String Bar Chords)
B-7------------------------------------------------7h10--10-10-----|
G-7-----------------------7-7-------7-7-7-7---7h9------------------|
E-14-14-14--14--14--14--14---14-14----14-----17b19-----------------------------|
I have no idea how this happens, all of my maps have been overthrown
Happenstance has changed my plans so many times my heart has been outgrown
Now everybody's feeling all alone, can't tell you who I am
When everybody's feeling all alone, can't tell you who I am
G----------12-----------------------------------11h12------|
I am looking forward toward the shadows tracing bones
Our faces stitched and sewing, our houses hemmed into homes
Trying to be thankful, our stories fit into phones
And our voices lift so easily, a gift given accidentally
When we're not sure we're not alone
