Ride the b[D]reeze to cut patterns in the le[Em]aves
And in [A]time we find some [C/G]shelter
Spill our [D]seeds and then wait for our t[C/G]urns
But for [Em]now we're adr[D]ift on the waves of[A] discontent
Trying to carve our [C/G]place
All in [Em]hopes we'll be something they[D] want
But I'm not holding my [Em]breath
Em G D Am x4
[A]Trace your [C]fingers down my [A]spine
[A]Make your [C]home behind my [A]eyes
[A]Line my [C]skull with harmless [A]lies
I'll bide my [C]time until I'm [D]something they [Em]want
End.
