Words and music by Jay Farrar rom the 2001 album "Sebastopol."
Intro: [Bm] [D]
[Bm]With the motion of a bird with a [D] broken wing
[Bm]No place to prey on you for [D] now
[Bm]Hair-raising prospects and head-toned [D] harmony
[ Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/j/jay_farrar/dead_promises_crd.html ]
Chorus
[A]When the way is finally found
in the stacks and piles
of dead [G] promises
We [D] keep around
[Bm]From the grotto haze the days will [D] elevate
[Bm]Mirror ruination to the [D] daytime
[Bm]From the bedlam block to the realtime [D] rodeo
CHORUS 2x
