[Verse 1]
A7
This haunted place, I keep a room
E7 D7 C7
A pied-à-terre, a pharaoh's tomb
A7
The cantos of my New York years
E7 D7 C7
Are scribed in ink that disappears
A7
The autumn leaves that store
E7 D7 C7
The glow of summer then invite the snow
A7
It's five o'clock, the sky is dark
E7 D7 C7
The blinds are drawn, the dogs all bark
A7
The bending pitch of siren choir
E7 D7 C7
The cries to find a crime, a fire
 
[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
A7 E7
The seeds of hope I throw across the sea
D7 C7
Are kissed before they're tossed
A7
Into the world like random prayers
E7 D7 C7
To gods who don't exist or care
A7
But some find soil and grow and bloom
E7 D7 C7
In fields I find when I've consumed
A7
Too many beers and gotten lost
E7 D7 C7
I speak your name when they are tossed
 
[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]
A7
My, my, my dear, you've scoured the trash
E7 D7 C7
For flowers and sparks that hide in ash
A7
And walk them through the city walls
E7 D7 C7
Past parking lots, graveyards and malls
A7
Where roads of dirt are stacked with stones
E7 D7 C7
Like skulls that bind the Catacombs
A7
Arranged into a shelter shade
E7 D7 C7
To lay low in when we've escaped
A7
Like Proserpina's gift of rain
E7 D7 C7
Wringing the sticks out of her mane
