Em Meet me on the football field, don't sleep on field, the quarterback C No one clapped when we locked in, it was removal of our class Em But my flag got captured and I fell between the cracks Dm My tool for inspiration turned into a handicap Em No matter how I tried, I just couldn't fill the gaps C Those whipper snappers, they got trapped old chap Em They lost the way, they never had the right map Dm Needed a sneak attack to slap the demons off my back Em So I picked for the shtetl dreamed big I wouldn't settle C Put the pedal to the metal and returned to fundamentals Em I'll never forget running through the hall with all y'all rebels Dm Roaming through the high land, young bucks invincible Em Echoes in my brain, if kids report to the principle Chorus: F Substance dulls the mind Dm Traife wine clouds the heart Am You can't sew a stitch with one hand G While you're taking it apart F Bright lights might look nice Dm But they sure won't make you sharp Am You can't sew a stitch with one hand G While you're taking it apart [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/m/matisyahu/80766.html ] C Yeah, misty morning and my mom's a mess Em To make matters worse dog my pops is stressed, life is a test Dm Make the grade or catch an F, now death is all that's left Em To ponder I wander off hoping to catch my breath C And hold it, mold my memories from untold scripts Em And roll up in a tornado twist, now I'm certain Dm There's a pertinent reason I'm on this earth Em Seasons change in white plains, but we remain alert C When new school years appear fools fear for a failure and crawl away Em In tears, I play Popeye the Sailor and stay with spinach Dm We walk the halls with a grimace Em Yeah they gossip in groups, I try to mind my business and tell the truth C For instance Em I listen, see it all with basketball court vision Ignoring ignorance in fields of fiction Dm We lean back in the calmest position Em And embrace the honesty found within our tension, What's good? Chorus Riff Am Trapped in the elevator of your mind Is it real, what will you find behind the door Your imaginations put you in a bind Around you there's a cloud of gloom Swallow the key, lock yourself in a room Can't see outside of your universe C No more war, there won't be anymore hunger Em No jealousy, not even competition Dm Let go, release, you hold the keys Em Time we evaporate into the breeze C We are nothing, we are something Em Let go, release, you hold the keys Dm It's time we evaporate into the breeze Em We are nothing, we'll be something C Welcome to the desert of my soul Em You can stay if you like, there's room for one more Dm Em There's room for one more |
