View chords used in this chart
Intro: B G#m F# E F#
B G#m
In remission of a mind, watch and listen to find
F# E F#
The position behind this illusion of time
B G#m
Got me counting my dimes so on the bus I can ride
F# E F#
I'm even doubting the rhyme, I'm in no rush I can hide
B G#m
Because I know that I tried, no longer taking a side
F# E F#
Tears don't flow from my eyes, no longer go for the lies
B G#m
I don't protest or resist, I'm not invested in this
F# E F#
I'm backing out of the fight to give my spirit tonight
B G#m F#
Gazing at the phase of an overcast day
E F# B
Watching rain fall from a dim cafe
G#m F#
Can't see the wind but I see the trees swing
E F# B
Now the evening's kiss got me fading away
G#m F# E F#
got me fading away
B G#m
Drip-drop, window pane hypnotic
F# E F#
Clip-clop, concrete heels on it
B G#m
I'm still disillusioned and cool catatonic
F# E F#
Always in a daze without smoking that chronic
B G#m
And the door's still open at the end of the day
F# E F#
And I'm still hoping without much to say
B G#m
Ask me who I'm with and I'll tell you I'm without
F# E F#
Ask me how I'm feeling; well I'm full of shit 'n doubt
B G#m
These phantasm women got me swimming through the sea
F# E F#
Apprehension steady creeping, whirlpool is pulling me
B G#m
So I might as well relax, go down with the flood
F# E F#
'Cause my hearts been attacked and the sharks smell my blood
B G#m F# E F#
If I lose consciousness and I wake at the shore
B G#m F# E F#
I will never complain I will never I will never I will never get
B G#m F# E F#
oooooooooooooooooooold I will never get old
B G#m F#
Gazing at the phase of an overcast day
E F# B
Watching rain fall from a dim cafe
G#m F#
Can't see the wind but I see the trees swing
E F# B
Now the evening's kiss got me fading away
G#m F# E F#
got me fading away
B
Got me fading away
