all chords relative to capo

G
sometimes the people that you meet in your life can seem
Em C Em Am
just like characters that populate some quiet childhood dream .
G
it’s so easy to get caught up in just one poetic line ,
Em C
while the parsons have their cross to bare ,
Em Am G
i know i’ve got mine .

G
and it’s a quiet night in silver lake , all the people crowd this scene .
Em C Em Am
well they look so much like cardboard cut – outs placed upon a screen ,
G
and i feel this sinking feeling as missy grabs my hand ,
Em C Em Am G
and we lose ourselves in the harmonies , the white – robed beauty of this band .

G
( aaaahh ooooohhh . . . )

G
and the singers all cry as she whispers in my ear ,
Em C Em Am
and i stare down at the ground , holding tightly to my beer ,
G
do you feel the strain between us , yeah i know i feel it too ,
Em C Em Am G
and i wish i believed in anything as much as the parson redheads do .
Em C Em Am G
i wish i believed in anything as much as the parson redheads do .
