I'd crawl over broken glass
if we could start again
before our plans were made
when the world was young
the house is falling down
because of my loose tongue
VERSE:
Shouldn't say so much
shouldn't talk so loud
No sooner on your lips
then it's all over town
in all our given days
how many gone to waste
a good man has been hung
because of my loose tongue
BRIDGE: Em
Your skin is changing it's hue
your god is coming down fast
it looks like someone I knew
uncovered happiness at last
VERSE:
And all the wagging tongues
too much information
in the future now
under massive doubt
the papers on the street
get trampled under feet
and they settle for a princely sum (no..no..no..)
good will is coming down
when it rains
your well is full
You shouldn't ask me
shouldn't ask me
....nose keeps growing
....and after some time you get what you're knowing
....sidecar? superman
....and that's not nothing you wandering for, yeah
CODA GUITAR PART (variations on this basic theme):
He's only
halfway through his life
He's only
used up all his time
