[Intro 1]
[B][Esus4][Em][Esus4][Em]

[Verse 1]
[Em]I hired [Esus4]a coach to take
me from con[Em]fusion to the plane
And though we shared a com[Esus4]mon space
I know I'll never meet [E]again
The driver [Esus4]with his eyebrows
[Em]furrowed [G]in the rear-view mirror
mirror
I read [Em]his n[F#m]ame and it was plainly
[Esus4]written N[E]athan La Franeer
I asked him would he hurry
But [B]we crawled the canyons slowly
[E]Through the[F#m] buyers and the[E] sellers
Through the burg[A]lar bells [E]and
the wishing [G#m]well s[E][F#m]
[E]With gan[Em]gs and girly sho[C]ws[B]
The ghostly [Em]garden grows
[E]The

[Verse 2]
cars and [Esus4]buses bustled through
the bedlam [Em]of the day
I looked through [Esus4]win dow-glass at at
streets and Nathan grumbled at [E]the grey
I saw [Esus4]an aging cripple [Em]selling

The city [F#m]grated through chrome-plate
The The clock struck [Esus4]slowly
[E]half-past-noon
Through Through Through
the tun[Em]nel tiled and turning
[E]Into day[B]light once again
[E]I am escaping[F#m]
Once [E]again goodbye
[A]To symphonies [E]and dirty [G#m]trees[E][F#m]
[E]With parks and[Em] pla[C]stic clo[B]thes
The ghostly [Em]garden grows
[E]He

[Verse 3]
asked me [Em]for a dollar more
He cursed me to my face
He hated [Esus4]everyone who paid to ride
And share his com[E]mon space
I picked my [Esus4]bags up from the curb
[Em]And stumbled t[G]o the door
Another [F#m]man reached out his hand
Another [E]hand reached out for more
And I [Em]filled it full of [Esus4]silver
[B]And I left the fingers [E]counting
And the [F#m]sky goes on fo[E]rever
Without [A]meter maids and
[E]peace parades
[F#m]

[Verse 4]
You [Em]feed it all [C]your[B]
