Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Dm][Am]
[Dm][Am][Em]

[Verse 1]
[Dm]Listen to the sounds
of ringing out around you
[Am]These are the cries of the dying beat
[Dm]Politics of hate you'd
never get around to
[Am]Blood over brains that we never [A]need
[Am]I sa[Dm]w you in the back,
studied and relaxed
[Am]Fixed in the post like a silent stone
[Dm]Serenity in tact,
it's the feeling that I lack
[Am]Life in the floors of a stable home

[Verse 2]
I can [F]trace you on paper like
[C]a sketch of a smell
You're what [F]breath to
a runner in [C]contest
[F]In close to the nerve,
but you [E]rest so far [Am]away
And I have [F]to give it up [G]someday[C]

[Verse 3]
Every time I close my eye[G]s,
I see you in [F]front of me
Pre[Em]tending in [Dm]a love like [C]this
I have no [G]choice but to put
you in [Dm]back of me
Don't [F]cover my [G]footsteps
[Am]Dead weight all right,
I know you're no [F]good for [Am]me
Dead weight all right,
I know you're no [F]righteous leader
[C]You're dead weight all rig[G]ht, that's fine,
you get your [Dm]hands off me
You have to touch me with [F]kid gloves
You have to touch me with [Am]kid

[Interlude 1]
gloves
[Am][Dm][Am]
[Dm][Am]

[Verse 4]
[Dm]By me to the wind,
you talk me out of standstill
[Am]I never felt so alive at onc[Em]e
Fin[Dm]ger to the quick,
yes I can feel your hand still
[Am]Pressed to the drain of
the common months

[Verse 5]
Cheer me [Dm]up, cheer me,
up I'm a miserable fuck
Cheer me [Am]up, cheer me,
up I'm a tireless boy
Cheer me [Dm]up, cheer me,
I'm invisibly stuck all in my[Am]self
You sound of vanity whore

[Verse 6]
Beause it's [F]race and it's
power at [C]the center of life
We [F]abide to the people [C]who need us
But [F]you're the kind of person who
could [E]understand that [Am]fault
And I hope [F]to measure you [G]someday

[Verse 7]
[C]Every time I close my eye[G]s,
I see you in [F]front of me
Pre[Em]tending in [Dm]a love like [C]this
I have no [G]choice but to put
you in [Dm]back of me
Don't [F]cover my [G]footsteps
[Am]Dead weight all right,
I know you're no [F]good [Am]for me
Dead weight all right,
I know you're no [F]righteous [C]leader
Dead weight all [G]right, that's fine,
you get your [Dm]hands off me
You have to touch me with kid [F]gloves
You have to touch me [Am]with kid gloves

[Interlude 2]

[Eb]

[Eb]Cheer me

[Verse 8]
[Dm]up, cheer me,
up I'm a miserable fuck
Cheer me [Bb]up, cheer me,
up I'm a tireless boy
Cheer me [F]up, cheer me,
I'm invisibly stuck all in my[Eb]self
You sound of vanity [Cm]whore
[Dm][Bb]

[Verse 9]
When you [Am]compromise yourself like that
It's [G]dead occasion
So even on [Am]friendship [C](?)

[Verse 10]
Dead weight all [C]right,
I know you're no [F]good [C]for me
Dead weight all right,
I know you're no [F]righteous [Am]leader
Dead weight all right, that's fine,
you get your [F]hands off me
You have to touch me with [C]kid gloves
You have to touch [Am]me with kid [Am]gloves
