Capo 5th Fret, Standard tuning
Intro: x2
Verse 1
There goes that old postman
Riding on his bike
He s got a bag full of phone bills
And nothing to justify
CHORUS 1:
* /
I m as naked as a winter tree
With promises remote
Wish I could fly away above the ashen shade
Observe the world below
x 2
Verse 2 (same as the first)
Once I had a calling
This town praised my hands
Now I m sculpting apologies
Cause folks they don t understand
CHORUS 2 (same as the first chorus except the last chord does not resolve to a G,
rather it pulls to Em to start the bridge, so the last line should be as follows:)
Observe the world below
Bridge:
*(32000x)
I could change myself
There s so much else I could do
Except I always knew
I was deeper than dailyness
I was made to be manifest
>
The art like an amethyst of truth
Verse 3 (same as 1&2)
I know, it s only too clear
Spiders spin their webs year after year
I never had that kind of resolve
To know my fear, to face it at all
CHORUS 3
* /
I m as naked as a winter tree
With promises remote
Wish I could fly away above the ashen shade
* /
Observe the world below yeah yeah
Observe the world below
